9.3.1.2.2 Programmable Current Limit

The TPS2HB16-Q1 includes an adjustable current limit. Some applications (for example, incandescent bulbs) will require a high current limit. Other applications can benefit from a lower current limit threshold. In general, wherever possible a lower current limit is recommended due to allowing system advantages through:

  • Reduced size and cost in current carrying components such as PCB traces and module connectors
  • Less disturbance at the power supply (VBB pin) during a short circuit event
  • Improved protection of the downstream load

To set the current limit threshold, connect a resistor from ILIM to VBB. The current limit threshold is determined by Equation 1 (RILIM in kΩ):

Equation 1. ICL = KCL / RILIM

The RILIM range is between 5 kΩ and 25 kΩ. An RILIM resistor is required; however, in the fault case where the pin is floating, grounded, or outside of this range the current limit will default to an internal level that is defined in the Specifications section of this document.

NOTE

Capacitance on the ILIM pin can cause ILIM to go out of range during short circuit events. For accurate current limiting, place RILIM near to the device with short traces to ensure <5 pF capacitance to GND on the ILIM pin.

For device version F, there is no ILIMX pin and the current limit is not adjustable. In this case, the device will current limit at the internal threshold ICL as defined in the Electrical Characteristics section.
