For example,
Over-Temperature Shutdown
The ZXLD1370 incorporates an over-temperature shutdown circuit to protect against damage caused by excessive die
temperature. A warning signal is generated on the STATUS output when die temperature exceeds 125°C nominal and the
output is disabled when die temperature exceeds 150°C nominal. Normal operation resumes when the device cools back
down to 125°C.

Applications Information
T
The ‘Thermal control’ circuit monitors the voltage on the T
below 625mV. An external NTC thermistor and resistor can therefore be connected as shown below to set the voltage on
the T
temperature and a falling current above it as shown in the graph. The temperature threshold can be altered by adjusting the
value of Rth and/or the thermistor to suit the requirements of the chosen LED.
The Thermal Control feature can be disabled by connecting T
