PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
In addition to the average inductor current limit, the TPS55287-Q1 implements the output short-circuit protection by entering hiccup mode. To enable hiccup mode, the HICCUP bit in register 06h must be set. After soft start-up time of 3.6ms, the TPS55287-Q1 monitors the average inductor current and output voltage. Whenever the output short circuit happens, causing the average inductor current hitting the set limit and the output voltage below 0.8V for 2ms, the TPS55287-Q1 shuts down the switching for 76ms (typical) and then repeats the soft start for 3.6ms. The hiccup mode helps reduce the total power dissipation on the TPS55287-Q1 in the output short-circuit or overcurrent condition.
