PRODUCTION DATA.
If Vs is powered while IN is floating or grounded, then about 0.5 mA will leak from the Vs pin into the IC and about 3 mA will leak from the OUT pin into the IC. From this leakage, about 50 uA will flow out of the IN pin and the rest will flow to ground. This does not affect long term reliability of the IC, but may influence circuit design.
In battery powered applications, whenever LM5050-1 functionality is not needed, the supply to the LM5050-1 can be disconnected by turning “OFF” Q2, as shown in Figure 29. This disconnects the ground path of the LM5050-1 and eliminates the current leakage from the battery.
The quiescent current of LM5050-1 can be also reduced by disconnecting the supply to VS pin, whenever LM5050-1 function is not need.
