7.4 Overtemperature flag

forward voltage drop increases from a few millivolts to approximately 0.7 V. The

power dissipation in the PIP401 increases causing the junction temperature to rise. A

temperature detection circuit with an open-collector output is provided, that can be

used to generate a warning signal for the power supply. The temperature flag

operates at a typical junction temperature of 160

°C. A pull-up resistor of at least 1 kΩ

The temperature flag is intended to operate under fault conditions. The PIP401

should not be run continuously at junction temperatures above 150

°C.
