transistor accordingly. Saturation control as a function of the load current prevents any oversaturation of the pass
element. The control loop stability depends on the output capacitor
the poles/zeros introduced by the integrated circuit. To ensure stable operation, the output capacitor’s capacitance
and its equivalent series resistor ESR requirements given in the table
be maintained. For details see also the typical performance graph “Output Capacitor Series Resistor

Connect the capacitors close to the IC terminals.
Protection circuitry prevent the IC as well as the application from destruction in case of catastrophic events. These
safeguards contain output current limitation, reverse polarity protection as well as thermal shutdown in case of
overtemperature.
In order to avoid excessive power dissipation that could never be handled by the pass element and the package,
the maximum output current is decreased at input voltages above
The thermal shutdown circuit prevents the IC from immediate destruction under fault conditions (e.g. output
continuously short-circuited) by switching off the power stage. After the chip has cooled down, the regulator
restarts. This leads to an oscillatory behavior of the output voltage until the fault is removed. However, a junction
temperature above 150 °C is outside the maximum rating and therefore reduces the IC lifetime.
The TLE4699 allows a negative supply voltage. However, several small currents are flowing into the IC increasing
its junction temperature. This has to be considered for the thermal design, respecting that the thermal protection
circuit is not operating during reverse polarity condition.
