8.3.2 Programmable Current Limit

The TPS274C65CP integrates an adjustable current limit feature. With external resistor at ILIMCFG pin, the current limit of the device can be adjusted. When the overload or short-circuit situation happens, the device clamps the current at preset current limit level.

A lower current limit lowers fault energy and current during a load failure event such as a short-circuit or a partial load failure. By lowering fault energy and current, the overall system improves through:

  • Reduced size and cost in current carrying components such as PCB traces and module connectors
  • Less disturbance at the power supply (VS pin) during a short circuit event
  • Less additional budget for the power supply to account for overload currents in one channel or more
  • Improved protection of the downstream load
