Typical Application (continued)

Figure 19. Thermal Foldback Using Voltage Divider and a Rail-to-Rail Op Amp

the output falls to the 0-V rail of the op amp. The rate at which the foldback occurs depends on the feedback

controls the voltage and temperature sensitivity of the circuit. The device feeds this voltage output into a LED

and is calculated in Equation 7. Figure 20 describes the output voltage curve in this example which sets the knee

point at 110°C.
