Usage Precautions
• Although the TB6559FG contains overcurrent detection circuitry, a large current might abruptly flow through
the IC in case of a short-circuit to power supply, a short-circuit to ground or a short-circuit across the load,
damaging the device permanently. This possibility should be fully considered in the design of the output, V
CC
and ground lines. If the device is damaged, a large current might continually flow through the device as a
secondary effect. Therefore, Toshiba recommends that a fuse be connected to the power supply line.
• Install this IC properly. If not, (e.g., installing it in the wrong position), the IC might be broken.
• If external components are shorted together, the IC might be broken.
