Thermal Protection
Internal Thermal Shutdown circuitry is provided to protect the integrated circuit in the event the maximum junction
temperature is exceeded. When activated, typically at 165°C, the controller is forced into a low power standby
state with the output drivers and the bias regulator disabled. The device will restart after the thermal hysteresis
(typically 25°C). During a restart after thermal shutdown, the softstart capacitor will be fully discharged and then
charged in the low current mode (1µA) similar to a second level current limit event. The thermal protection
feature is provided to prevent catastrophic failures from accidental device overheating.
