9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

In this example, the nominal load current is 100 mA, so the current limit can be set to 500 mA without disrupting normal operation. Use Equation 2 to calculate the resistor needed on the ILIM pin.
Equation 2. ILIM = 1.18 × (RILIM)–1.072
where
  • ILIM = Typical current limit setting
  • RILIM = Resistor on the ILIM pin

Based on Equation 2, a 2.21-kΩ resistor must be used on the ILIM pin to set a typical current limit of 500 mA.
