7.3.4 Analog Load Current Monitor

The TPS25948xx allows the system to accurately monitor the output load current by providing an analog current sense output on the ILM pin which is proportional to the current through the FET. The user can sense the voltage (VILM) across the RILM to get a measure of the output load current.

Equation 7. I LOAD  (A) =  V IMON  (µV) R ILM  (Ω) × G IMON  (µA/A)
TPS25948 Analog Load Current Monitor Response
VIN = 12 V, COUT = 220 μF, RILM = 536 Ω, IOUT varied dynamically between 3 A and 8 A
Figure 7-10 Analog Load Current Monitor Response
Note: The ILM pin is sensitive to capacitive loading. Careful design and layout is needed to ensure the parasitic capacitive loading on the ILM pin is < 50 pF for stable operation.
