SLUS720F February 2007 – June 2019 TPS40195
PRODUCTION DATA.
The threshold is set with a single external resistor connected from ILIM to GND. Pulse-by-pulse limiting (to prevent current runaway) is provided by sensing the voltage across the high-side MOSFET when it is on and terminating the cycle when the voltage drop rises above a fixed threshold of 550 mV. When the controller senses an output short circuit, both MOSFETs are turned off and a timeout period is observed before attempting to restart. This provides limited power dissipation in the event of a sustained fault. Synchronization on this device is bi-directional. Devices can be synchronized 180° out of phase to a chosen master TPS40195 running at a fixed 250 kHz or 500 kHz, or can be synchronized to an outside clock source anywhere in the 100 kHz to 600 kHz range.
