Thermal Protection

PD70210, PD70210A, and PD70210AL are protected from excessive internal temperatures that might occur during

various operating procedures. Two temperature sensors are located on the chip, monitoring the temperatures of the

isolating switch (pass-FET) and classification current sink.

Each over-temperature sensors activates a protection mechanism that disconnects the isolation (pass) FET or the

classification circuit. This protects the device from being permanently damaged and from long-term degradation.
