PRODUCTION DATA
The VDS rating of the MOSFET Q1 must be minimum 200 V for a output cut-off design where output can reach 0 V while the load dump transient is present and must be a minimum of 164.5 V when output is clamped to 37 V (±1.5 V). The VGS rating is based on HGATE-OUT maximum voltage of 15 V. TI recommends a 20-V VGS rated MOSFET.
Power dissipation on MOSFET Q1 on a design where output is clamped is critical and SOA characteristics of the MOSFET must be considered with sufficient design margin for reliable operation.
