Because the package power dissipation is 1951mW, the
MAX8586 die temperature exceeds the +160°C thermal-
shutdown threshold when dissipating 7.2W, and the
switch output shuts down until the junction temperature
cools by 15°C. The duty cycle and period are strong
functions of the ambient temperature and the PC board
layout (see the
Thermal Shutdown
section).
If the output current exceeds the current-limit threshold,
or the output voltage is pulled below the short-circuit
detect threshold, the MAX8586 enters a fault state after
20ms, at which point auto-restart mode is enabled and
25mA is sourced by the output to test for removal of the
overload. For a 5V input, OUT short circuited to GND,
and auto-restart mode active, the power dissipation is
as follows:
P = 0.025A x 5V = 0.125W
