9.4.6 Start-Up with Short on Output

The TPS2475x has ability of detecting the short at the output during start-up and ensure shutdown of the hot-swap circuit/system with fault indication. During start-up, after the initialization process is complete and the GATE is enabled, the device limits the power as explained in the Action of the Constant-Power Engine section and the TIMER pin begins to charge the timing capacitor CT with approximately 10 µA constant current source. If the voltage on CT reaches its upper limit threshold of 1.35V, during start-up cycle itself, then the internal FET is turned off and fault pin FLTb is pulled low to signal the fault condition. After this, the hot-swap circuit enters either in latch mode (TPS24750) or auto-retry mode (TPS24751). Figure 39 shows the behavior of the TPS2475x for start-up with short on the output.

This feature help to ensure early detection of fault and quick isolation of the subsystem to ensure stability of the other units connected on the DC bus.
