9.2.3.6 Selecting Short Circuit Current Threshold

LM74912-Q1 has integrated current sense amplifier which monitors the VDS drop across external MOSFET and compares it against internal 50-mV default threshold. When voltage drop across external MOSFET exceeds 50-mV threshold then MOSFET Q2 is turned off in latched state.

External MOSFET Q2 RDSON can be selected as per

Equation 8. GUID-20230703-SS0I-NMWG-GRGB-MFV1BZL6K6HN-low.svg

MOSFET RDSON typically can vary as much as two times across temperature range of -40C to 125C with RDSON being higher at 125C. This can affect the short circuit current detection accuracy and need to be taken into consideration.
