PRODUCTION DATA
Four over temperature warning levels are available in the device that can be selected (see the Section 8.1 section for thresholds). When the junction temperature exceeds the warning level, the WARN pin is asserted unless the mask bit has been set to disable reporting. The device functions until OTSD value is reached at which point all channels are placed in the Hi-Z state and the FAULT pin is asserted. When the junction temperature returns to normal levels, the device automatically recovers and places all channels into the state indicated by value in the Channel State Control Register (address = 0x04). The tolerance of the warning levels and OTSD temperatures track each other.
When Thermal Foldback (TFB) is enabled, register 0x28 bit 5, the device automatic reduces the gain and thereby output power when either the global thermal warning, OTW, or the channel thermal warning, OTW(i) signals an over temperature. The attack and release time of the TFB can be programmed from by the register 0x28. The gain is stepped in 1 dB steps with a max attenuation of 12 dB.
