It also reduces switching frequency and Feedback pin can be clamped above 1.5V with an external current limit when output voltage is very low (see the diode to defeat foldback current limit. Caution: clamping Frequency Foldback graph in Typical Performance Char- the feedback pin means that frequency shifting will also be acteristics). This is done to control power dissipation in defeated, so a combination of high input voltage and dead both the IC and in the external diode and inductor during shorted output may cause the LT1376 to lose control of short-circuit conditions. A shorted output requires the current limit. switching regulator to operate at very low duty cycles, and The internal circuitry which forces reduced switching the average current through the diode and inductor is frequency also causes current to flow out of the feedback 13756fd 9
