TPS254900-Q1: Output and BIAS TVS

Part Number: TPS254900-Q1


Hi,

I received the following question from my customer.

It is mentioned about "Output and BIAS TVS" on the datasheet 9.2.2.4.

Though it is referred in the case of 16/18V battery, is a TVS required in the case of 12V-battery?

Best Regards,

Kuramochi

  • Hi Kuramochi-san,

    The problem is even custeorm use 12V-battery, when the output short to battery, there maybe some ringing due to some parastic.
    So we use TVS in case the voltage exceed 18V, which is max OUT sustain voltage.

    Best regards,
