Programming the Overvoltage Protection

Select the values of R1 and R2 according to Equation 2.

Equation 2. TPS61500 eq_vovp_lvs893.gif

For example, the total forward voltage of four 3-W LED is 14V, then use R1 of 120 k and R2 of 10 k to program the threshold of 16 V. In the OVP mode, the device regulates the output voltage at the OVP threshold.

When the fault is clear and the OVP pin voltage falls 40 mV below 1.229 V, IC resumes the output regulation for LED current.
