TLE 4287 G
The device has two logic inputs, EN and H. It is turned ON by a voltage > 4 V at EN, for
example by the ignition and remains active in case H is set LOW, even if the voltage at
EN goes LOW. This makes it possible to implement a self-holding circuit without external
components. When the device is turned OFF, the output voltage drops to 0 V and current
consumption tends towards 0 µA. (Please see following truth table).
Design Notes for External Components
The input capacitor CI is necessary for compensation line influences. The resonant
circuit consisting of lead inductance and input capacitance can be damped by a resistor
of approx. 1 Ω in series with CI. The output capacitor is necessary for the stability of the
regulating circuit. Stability is guaranteed for CQ ≥ 100 nF within the operating
temperature range.
