VIN pin connection SBD (LTM4656)

Category: Datasheet/Specs

SBD: NTSA545 is connected to the BVIN pin in the evaluation board and application circuit example.
But I can't get it.

I would like to choose another device

Q1: Please tell us the selection criteria.
 Used at VIN=5V, VOUT=12V, 2.5A
Q2: Please tell us the role of this SBD.

  • The schottky is inserted to protect the BIN pin from excessive negative voltage during an output over current fault condition.Its reverse voltage is recommended to be >30% of maximum BVIN and 2xBVIN would be better. Current rating of the diode is not critical because it is primarily for protection.
