Quick Output Discharge (QOD)

Use the following instructions to observe the Quick Output Discharge (QOD) functionality:

  1. Set the input supply voltage VIN to 12 V and current limit to 10 A. Turn ON the power supply.
  2. Use the switch SW1 to connect the EN/UVLO pin to ground to do power cycling (QOD is disabled).
  3. Use the switch SW2 to enable the QOD by making the voltage at EN/UVLO pin in the range of 0.8 V–1.1 V with the input voltage of 9.8 V–13.5 V (QOD is enabled).
  4. Observe the waveforms of VIN (TP3), VOUT (TP4), PG (TP21), and EN (TP22) using an oscilloscope.

In Figure 5-16, the turn-off performance of the TPS25990 eFuse with QOD enabled is shown, whereas Figure 5-17 illustrates the turn-off performance with QOD disabled on the TPS25990EVM.
