LM2733 Thermal Protection

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM2733

Hello,

Please answer following question from customer.

LM2733 datasheet(SNVS209E) explains thermal protection function as follows.

   P1:Protection is provided through cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown.

   P3:(3) If power dissipation exceeds the maximum specified above, the internal thermal protection

             circuitry will protect the device by reducing the output voltage as required to maintain a safe junction temperature.

 

Please advice the junction temperature that thermal protection works.

Please explain the details of how the thermal protection works.

  - Does output voltage shut-down or reduce the voltage ? 

  - Is this protection latch type or restart when temperature down to threshold ?

Regards.
