Overtemperature Protection

The TPS544B27W device implements three overtemperature protection (OTP) mechanisms for comprehensive thermal safety. For all mechanisms switching stops when the sensed IC temperature goes beyond the respective threshold. The device responds to all mechanisms as configured through the OT_FAULT_RESPONSE PMBus command.

The controller monitors the temperature via an on-die temperature sensor. This sensed temperature is compared to the threshold selected through SEL_OTF_BG with an analog comparator.

The power stage die employs a separate temperature sensor for OTP with a fixed threshold of 166°C typical (rising).

Note:

The third OTP mechanism, the user programmable OTP selected through the OT_FAULT_LIMIT, is not functional. If the device temperature monitored through READ_TEMPERATURE_1 telemetry is greater than OT_FAULT_LIMIT, the device does not respond. The device also does not respond to READ_TEMPERATURE_1 greater than the programmed OT_WARN_LIMIT.
