Hi team,
My customer is using our TPS254900-Q1, and they have two questions about the TVS choice.
1. Datasheet recommend "SMAJ16 for a 16-V battery or an SMAJ18 for an 18-V battery", but in their application, the battery is 12V and the USN output is 5V.
They wonder which voltage should they refer to choose this TVS and why?
2. They find our datasheet says OUT pin max voltage is 18V.
But the max voltage of SMAJ18A is about 29.2V which will damage the device.
Why we still choose this TVS? And why this voltage is not important for our usage?
Thanks,
Brian
