A resistor from this pin to GND sets the maximum power permitted in the internal MOSFET during inrush. Do not apply a voltage to this pin. If the constant power limit is not desired, use a PROG resistor of 4.99 kΩ. To set the maximum power, use Equation 1.
where PLIM is the allowed power limit of the internal MOSFET. RSENSE is the load current monitoring resistor connected between the VCC pin and the SENSE pin. RPROG is the resistor connected from the PROG pin to GND. Both RPROG and RSENSE are in ohms and PLIM is in watts. PLIM is determined by the maximum allowed thermal stress of internal MOSFET, given by Equation 2.
where TJ(MAX) is the maximum desired transient junction temperature and TC(MAX) is the maximum case temperature prior to a start or restart. RӨJC(MAX) is the junction-to-case thermal impedance of the internal pass FET in units of °C/W. Both TJ(MAX) and TC(MAX) are in °C.
