9.3.3 Adjusting the Current Limit

The current limit is adjusted by connecting an external resistor from the ILIM pin to GND. The current limit resistor can be chosen using the equation:

Equation 1. ILIM = 1.18 × (RILIM)–1.072

The units for the equation are amps for ILIM and kilohms for RILIM. For the TPS22950L, the device is only limiting current during a short period of time. Therefore, the peak value of the current (ILIM,PEAK) may be more applicable for system considerations. The equation for this parameter is below:

Equation 2. ILIM,PEAK = 1.31 × (RILIM)–1.042
The RILIM resistor is also used to set the high current detection threshold for the TPS22950L, and that equation is shown below.
Equation 3. IHCD = (0.988 / RILIM) + 0.06
The units for the equation are amps for IHCD and kilohms for RILIM.
