8.4.4 Current Limit and Short Circuit Protection

The TPSM8281x is protected against overload and short circuit events. If the inductor current exceeds the current limit ILIMH, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and the low-side MOSFET is turned on to ramp down the inductor current. The high-side MOSFET turns on again only if the current in the low-side MOSFET has decreased below the low-side current limit. Due to internal propagation delays, the actual current can exceed the static current limit. The dynamic current limit is given as:

Equation 7. TPSM82810 TPSM82813

where

  • ILIMH is the static current limit, as specified in the electrical characteristics
  • L is the effective inductance (typically 470nH)
  • VL is the voltage across the inductor (VIN - VOUT)
  • tPD is the internal propagation delay of typically 50ns

The dynamic peak current is calculated as follows:

Equation 8. TPSM82810 TPSM82813
The low-side MOSFET also contains a negative current limit to prevent excessive current from flowing back through the inductor to the input. If the low-side sinking current limit is exceeded, the low-side MOSFET is turned off. In this scenario, both MOSFETs are off until the start of the next cycle. The negative current limit is only active in Forced PWM mode.
