Output pin absolute-maximum-rating value of TPS7A6650-Q1

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TLE4275-Q1

Dear, All

The absolute-maximum-rating value of the output pin of TPS7A6650-Q1 is 7V.
Input power source resisting pressure is a low value to other products and products of the other company as LDO beyond about 40V.
(For example, TLE4275-Q1 is 16V.)
I would like to know the reason.
For example,
- In order to reduce - chip cost?
- A protection circuit is added which does not occur [ emitting smoke ] even if an internal sense circuit breaks down?
Please teach me the above reasons.

Thanks, Masami M.

  • Hi Masami-san,

    For different applications and features, chips will have differnt output voltage and absolute-maximum-rating value. For those devices whose output max voltage can survive 7V only (such as TPS7A6650-Q1), most of their target market is for CAN and uC power supply, usually 3.3V and 5V are enough.

    For TLE4275-Q1, because it has the short to battery protect feature, and in 12 battery system, the normal voltage range is about 9-16V.

    Another reason is chip cost. As you know, higher output maximum voltage will add more cost.

    Best regards,
