PRODUCTION DATA
Step 1: Use Equation 8 to determine the current sensing resistor, R(SNSx).
where
According to design requirements, output current for each channel is same so that the calculated R(SNS1) = R(SNS2) = 1.15Ω.
Step 2: Design the current distribution between I(OUTx) and I(RESx), and use Equation 9 to calculate the current sharing resistor, R(RESx). The R(RESx) value actually decides the current distribution for I(OUTx) path and I(RESx) path, basic principle is to design the R(RESx) to consume appropriate 50% total power dissipation at typical supply operating voltage.
where
The calculated result for R(RESx) resistor value including R(RES1), R(RES2) is 117Ω when V(OUTx) is typical 2 × 2.2V = 4.4V.
Step 3: Design the threshold voltage of SUPPLY to enable the LED open circuit, and calculate voltage divider resistor value for R1 and R2 on the DIAGEN pin.
The maximum forward voltage of LED-string is 2 × 2.5V = 5V. To avoid the open-circuit fault reported in low-dropout operation conditions, additional headroom between SUPPLY and OUTx must be considered. The TPS92620-Q1 device must disable open-circuit detection when the supply voltage is below LED-string maximum forward voltage plus V(OPEN_th_rising) and V(CS_REG). Use Equation 10 to calculate the voltage divider resistor, R1 and R2 value.
where
The calculated result for R1 is 43.4kΩ when V(OUTx) maximum voltage is 5V and V(CS_REG) is 156mV.
