7.2.2.4 Current Sense Resistor

The current limit is set by the current sense resistor value (RS).

Equation 46. GUID-4F4DB949-70F0-4C3D-9D19-FE1B7ECF22F0-low.gif

For a 5V output, the maximum current sense signal occurs at the minimum input voltage, so RS is calculated from:

Equation 34. GUID-AC919622-3E59-43A5-ABE0-D0016FF70C49-low.gif

For this example VCCX = 0 V, so VCS(TH) = 0.11 V. The current sense resistor is calculated as:

Equation 35. GUID-FDC3CA53-E64E-49A8-9378-147794F7C8E2-low.gif

The next lowest standard value of 10 mΩ was chosen for RS.
