PRODUCTION DATA
The following table summarizes the device response to various fault conditions. Additionally, an active low external fault indication (FLT) pin is available on the TPS259461x variants.

Faults which are latched internally can be cleared either by power cycling the part (pulling VIN to 0 V) or by pulling the EN/UVLO pin voltage below VSD. This also resets the tRST timer for the TPS25946xA (auto-retry) variants.
During a latched fault, pulling the EN/UVLO just below the UVLO threshold has no impact on the device. This is true for both TPS25946xL (latch-off) and TPS25946xA (auto-retry) variants.
The TPS25946xA (auto-retry) variants restart automatically on expiry of the tRST timer after a fault.
