ZHCSM06C december 2020 – may 2023 TPS272C45
PRODUCTION DATA
When switching off an inductive load, the inductor can impose a negative voltage on the output of the switch. The TPS272C45 includes voltage clamps between VS and VOUT to limit the voltage across the FETs and demagnetize load inductance if there is any. The negative voltage applied at the OUT pin drives the discharge of inductor current. Figure 9-10 shows the device discharging a 40-mH load.
