7.3.5 Analog Current Control (ICTRL)

The TPS92633 supports analog constant current control for all three output channels together through adjusting the V(CS_REG) voltage. As described in Constant-Current Output and Setting (INx), the TPS92633 regulates each channel output current by maintaining the voltage drop on each R(SNSx) same to V(CS_REG). The V(CS_REG) voltage is adjustable by an external resistor on ICTRL pin. The TPS92633 outputs a constant current, I(ICTRL), on the ICTRL pin and measures the voltage on the ICTRL pin, V(ICTRL), to determine the V(CS_REG). The I(ICTRL) current is 10 times of the I(IREF), and the V(ICTRL) is multiplied result of I(ICTRL) and R(ICTRL). The TPS92633 internally clamps the V(ICTRL) to maximum 2.75 V. The V(CS_REG) voltage can be calculated by using Equation 3.

Equation 3. GUID-C4E94C8D-E3D2-4E25-9950-3F272304592F-low.gif

where

  • I(IREF) is in A unit
  • R(ICTRL) is in Ω unit
  • V(CS_REG) is in V unit

The minimum voltage of V(CS_REF) is 50 mV typically to maintain the high accurate current output.

The final total output current for each channel can be calculated by using Equation 4 which is combination of Equation 1, Equation 2 and Equation 3.

Equation 4. GUID-ADF0E45E-82E8-4250-8F69-7C7FFB672333-low.gif

where

  • V(IREF) = 1.235 V
  • R(IREF) is in kΩ unit
  • R(ICTRL) is in Ω unit
  • R(SNSx) is in Ω unit
  • I(OUTx_Tot) is in mA unit

The calculated result for I(OUTx_Tot) is 147.7 mA when R(IREF) is 12.3 kΩ, R(ICTRL) is 1000 Ω and R(SNSx) is 1Ω.
