Current-Sense Resistance
  1. Calculate the current-sense resistance based on a maximum peak current capability of at least 25% higher than the peak inductor current at full load to provide sufficient margin during start-up and load-on transients. Calculate the current sense resistances using Equation 34.
    Equation 34. GUID-3735B8AD-6B3E-4A33-B920-A219EED914AE-low.gif

    where

    • VCS-TH is the 60-mV current limit threshold.
  2. Select a standard resistance value of 5 mΩ for the shunt. An 0508 footprint component with wide aspect ratio termination design provides 1-W power rating, low parasitic series inductance, and compact PCB layout. Carefully adhere to the layout guidelines in GUID-6CFB9914-50AB-4847-9B74-DE78EA03AA6F.html#GUID-6CFB9914-50AB-4847-9B74-DE78EA03AA6F to make sure that noise and DC errors do not corrupt the differential current-sense voltages measured at the ISNS+ and VOUT pins.
  3. Place the shunt resistor close to the inductor.
  4. Use Kelvin-sense connections, and route the sense lines differentially from the shunt to the LM5148.
  5. The CS-to-output propagation delay (related to the current limit comparator, internal logic, and power MOSFET gate drivers) causes the peak current to increase above the calculated current limit threshold. For a total propagation delay tDELAY-ISNS+ of 40 ns, use Equation 35 to calculate the worst-case peak inductor current with the output shorted.
    Equation 35. GUID-9F1E1967-FFC2-42CC-9682-F463DF1431D5-low.gif
  6. Based on this result, select an inductor with saturation current greater than the result of Equation 35 across the full operating temperature range.
