The high current regulator has over voltage shutdown to protect both the internal circuitry and the load during line transients, such as load dump (60V). In addition, the high current regulator design also has builtin protection for short circuit and thermal overload. During these fault conditions of the primary output, the standby regulator will continue to power its load. The LX8942 is the 8.2 volt, 5% version of a family of dual regulators with a standby output voltage of 5V. Other high-current outputs programmed for 5V and 12V regulation are available in the SG29055, SG29125 devices. They are designed to function over the full automotive ambient temperature range of -40C to 85C.
