About PARASITE POWER

Category: Datasheet/Specs
Product Number: DS28E18

Hello team,

From the block diagram on page 10 of the datasheet,
I believe the PARASITE POWER block is configured with an ideal diode.
In other words, my understanding is that when V(IO) > V(CEXT), the FET turns ON,
connecting IO and CEXT with low resistance.
When V(IO) < V(CEXT), the FET turns OFF, and its body diode prevents reverse current.

Is my understanding correct?

Best regards,
