7.3.11.1 Positive Inductor Current Protection

Current is sensed in the high-side MOSFET while it is conducting after a short blanking time to allow noise to settle. Whenever the high-side overcurrent threshold is exceeded, the high-side MOSFET is immediately turned off and the low-side MOSFET is turned on. The high-side MOSFET does not turn back on until the current falls below the low-side MOSFET overcurrent threshold, effectively limiting the peak current in the case of a short-circuit condition. If a high-side overcurrent is detected for 15 consecutive cycles, the device enters hiccup mode.

The current is also sensed in the low-side MOSFET while it is conducting after a short blanking time to allow noise to settle. If the low-side overcurrent threshold is exceeded when the next incoming PWM signal is received from the controller, the device skips processing that PWM pulse. The device does not turn the high-side MOSFET on again until the low-side overcurrent threshold is no longer exceeded. If the low-side overcurrent threshold remains exceeded for 15 consecutive cycles, the device enters hiccup. There are two separate counters for the high-side and low-side overcurrent events. If the off time is too short, the low-side overcurrent can not trip. The low-side overcurrent, however, begins tripping after the high-side peak overcurrent limit is crossed, as exceeding the peak current limit shortens the on time and lengthens the off time.

Both the high-side and low-side positive overcurrent thresholds are programmable using the MSEL pin. Two sets of thresholds are available ("High" and "Low"), which are summarized in Table 7-6. The values for these thresholds are obtained using open-loop measurements with a DC current to accurately specify the values. In real applications, the inductor current ramps and the ramp rate is a function of the voltage across the inductor (VIN – VOUT) as well as the inductance value. The ramp rate combined with delays in the current sense circuitry then results in slightly different values than specified. The current at which the high-side overcurrent limit takes effect can be slightly higher than specified, and the current at which the low-side overcurrent limit takes effect can be slightly lower than specified.
