Device Functional Modes

The unique features of the TPS7A78, along with its dual-input power-supply capability, enables the device to be used in a vast array applications. Table 1 gives a general overview of the conditions that lead to different modes of operation, given that the requirements in the Typical Application section are met.

Table 1. Device Functional Mode Comparison

OPERATING MODE PARAMETER
DEVICE POWER-SUPPLY IOUT TJ
Normal operation VAC supply(1) / DC supply(2) IOUT < ICL used in the Calculating the Cap-Drop Capacitor CS section TJ < TSD (Shutdown)
Dropout mode(3) CS or CSCIN capacitors are not sufficient to support IOUT (VAC supply) IOUT < ICL used in the Calculating the Cap-Drop Capacitor CS section TJ < TSD (Shutdown)
VSCIN ≤ VUVLO SCIN rising threshold and VLDO_IN > VUVLO LDO_IN rising threshold (DC supply)(4) IOUT < ICL used in the Calculating the Cap-Drop Capacitor CS section TJ < TSD (Shutdown)
Disabled mode(5) VLDO_IN < VUVLO LDO_IN falling threshold (VAC supply) Not applicable TJ > TSD (Shutdown)
VLDO_IN < VUVLO LDO_IN falling threshold (DC supply)
The device can function with the VAC supply down to 18 VRMS; see the Typical Application section for details.
The DC supply applied on the SCIN pin must be bounded by the VSCIN (MAX) > VSCIN > VUVLO_SCIN (RISING) threshold as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions and Electrical Characteristics tables.
The device can be in dropout when powered by VAC or DC supplies; see the Dropout Voltage Regulation section for details.
This condition applies after device has started up.
Any true condition disables the device VLDO_OUT and stops the switched-capacitor stage from switching; see the Disabled Mode section for details.
