Analog Devices Linear Regulator: I would like to add a shutdown function to the LT3083, but is the FET (Q2) connected to the output shown in the figure on page 18 of the data sheet unnecessary if there is no problem with natural discharge?

Analog Devices Linear Regulator: I would like to add a shutdown function to the LT3083, but is the FET (Q2) connected to the output in the diagram on p.18 of the datasheet unnecessary if there is no problem with self-discharge?

power management

A FET (Q2) connected to the output is required when the shutdown function is added. This is because residual charge at the output can flow through internal parasitics into the SET pin, and this current can damage the IC.
