PRODUCTION DATA
The output current limit is programmable from 0 A to 6.35 A by placing a 10-mΩ current sensing resistor between the ISP pin and the ISN pin. Smaller resistance results in a higher current limit and bigger resistance results in a lower current limit. An internal register sets the current sense voltage across the ISP pin and the ISN pin. The programmable voltage step between the ISP pin and the ISN pin is 0.5 mV.
Connecting the ISP and the ISN pin together to the VOUT pin disables the output current limit because the sensed voltage is always zero. The output current limit can also be disabled by reset the Current_Limit_EN bit in the Current_Limit register to 0.
When the OE bit or the Current_Limit_EN bit is changed from 0 to 1, the OCP_MASK must be 0. After the OE bit and the Current_Limit_EN bit are set, set the OCP_MASK to 1 to enable the OCP fault indication output.
