10.2.2.1 RILIM Calculation

In this application, the TPS272C45 must allow for the maximum DC current with margin but minimize the energy in the switch and the load on the input supply during a fault condition by minimizing the current limit.

The nominal current limit must be set such that the worst case (lowest) current limit is higher than the maximum load current (2 A). Because the lower limit is 23% below the typical value, for this application, the best ILIM set point is approximately 2.6 A for both channels. The below equation allows you to calculate the RILIM value that is placed from the ILIMx pins to GND pin of the device. RILIM is calculated in kΩ.

Equation 3. RILIM = KCL / ICL

The KCL value in the Specifications section is 20.5 A × kΩ. So the calculated value of RILIM closest 2% resistor is 7.87 kΩ.
