Overtemperature Protection (OTP)

The device monitors the internal die temperature (TJ) at all times and shuts down the part as soon as the temperature exceeds a safe operating level (TSD) thereby protecting the device from damage. The device does not turn back on until the junction cools down sufficiently, that is the die temperature falls below (TSD – TSDHYS).

When the TPS2521xL (latch-off variant) detects thermal overload, it shuts down and remains latched-off until the device is power cycled or re-enabled. When the TPS2521xA (auto-retry variant) detects thermal overload, it remains off until it has cooled down by TSDHYS. Thereafter, the device remains off for an additional delay of tRST after which it automatically retries to turn on if it is still enabled.
