9.3.5.4 Current Monitoring

The current source at IMON terminal is internally configured to be proportional to the current flowing from IN to OUT. This current can be converted into a voltage using a resistor R(IMON) from IMON terminal to RTN terminal. The IMON voltage can be used as a means of monitoring current flow through the system. The maximum voltage range (V(IMONmax)) for monitoring the current is limited to minimum of ([V(IN) – 1.5 V, 4 V]) to ensure linear output. This puts a limitation on maximum value of R(IMON) resistor and is determined by Equation 5.

Equation 5. GUID-20200603-SS0I-2SMT-HRNV-KBTGQPD6PKWJ-low.gif

The output voltage at IMON terminal is calculated using Equation 6 and Equation 7.

For IOUT > 50 mA,

Equation 6. V(IMON) = [I(OUT) × GAIN(IMON)] × R(IMON)

where,

  • GAIN(IMON) is the gain factor I(IMON):I(OUT) = 78.4 μA/A (Typical)
  • I(OUT) is the load current
  • I(MON_OS) = 2 μA (Typical)

For IOUT < 50 mA (typical), use Equation 7.

Equation 7. V(IMON) = (I(IMON_ OS)) × R(IMON)

This pin must not have a bypass capacitor to avoid delay in the current monitoring information. In case of reverse input polarity fault, an external 100-kΩ resistor is recommended between IMON pin and ADC input to limit the current through the ESD protection structures of the ADC.
