Overvoltage protection function (overvoltage clamp)

For TCKE8 Series, when the input voltage of the VIN pin of the eFuse IC exceeds the overvoltage clamp value (OVC), the output voltage VOUT is limited to the overvoltage clamp value (OVC) so that the overvoltage is not applied to the subsequent IC or circuits. 

There are two types of overvoltage protection functions:

  • a type that clamps the output voltage
  • a type that shuts off the output voltage.

Please check the data sheet for details as it depends on the product.
