7.3.4 Thermal Shutdown

Thermal shutdown protection disables the output when the junction temperature rises to approximately 160°C. Disabling the device eliminates the power dissipated by the device, allowing the device to cool. When the junction temperature cools to approximately 140°C, the output circuitry is again enabled. Depending on power dissipation, thermal resistance, and ambient temperature, the thermal protection circuit can cycle on and off. This cycling limits regulator dissipation, protecting the device from damage as a result of overheating.

Activating the thermal shutdown feature usually indicates excessive power dissipation as a result of the product of the (VIN – VOUT) voltage and the load current. For reliable operation, limit junction temperature to 150°C (maximum). To estimate the margin of safety in a complete design, increase the ambient temperature until the thermal protection is triggered; use worst-case loads and signal conditions.

The TLV733P-Q1 internal protection circuitry protects against overload conditions but is not intended to be activated in normal operation. Continuously running the TLV733P-Q1 into thermal shutdown degrades device reliability.
