Hello,
the datasheet recommends the external catch diode to be MBR05x0 series Schottky diode with average forward current of 0.5mA. My application only requires about 200mA (stepping up from 5V to 9V) so the diode would be fine, but I'm wondering about the output short circuit condtion. It does say, it has cycle-by-cycle current limiting with switch current up to 1A. Would this diode be enough to handle the output short circuit condition or would I need higher current rated diode?
Thank you
