Tool/software:
Hello e2e,
These questions apply to a critical long duration space flight mission:
- Can the part be enabled with a voltage present on Vout, and if yes is there a limit to what that voltage can be, e.g. something other than making sure Vout does not exceed Vin? The specifics of our application are:
- Vin=5V, Vout=3.3V.
- There could be up to 0.7V on Vout at the time the part is enabled.
- Vin=5V always present before prebias on Vout occurs.
- The functional block diagram shown in 7.2 shows a 2mA current source at the output (see below), what is the purpose of this current source, and when is it in effect, e.g. powered on & enabled, powered on not enabled, in regulation, always… ?
Thank you,
-John
