ZHCSIE2M June 2008 – June 2018 TPS735
PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS735 internal current limit protects the regulator during fault conditions. During current limit, the output sources a fixed amount of current that is independent of the output voltage. For reliable operation, do not operate the device in current limit for extended periods of time.
The PMOS pass element in the TPS735 device contains a built-in body diode that conducts current when the voltage at the OUT pin exceeds the voltage at the IN pin. This current is not limited, so if extended reverse voltage operation is expected, external limiting is appropriate.
