Programmable Current Limit

A resistor from the ILIM pin to GND sets the internal current limit on the LM21215. Program the current limit so that the peak inductor current (IL) does not trigger the current limit in normal operation. This requires setting the resistor from the ILIM pin to GND (RILIM) to the appropriate value to allow the maximum ripple current, ΔILMAX plus the DC output current through the high-side FET during normal operation. The maximum ripple current can be described as:

Equation 9. GUID-46AE8B67-3B44-47D3-BB3E-B6E00AE3210C-low.gif

where

  • VINMAX, VINMIN, VOUTMAX, VOUTMIN, LMIN, and FSWMIN are the respective maximum and minimum conditions of the system as defined by the component tolerance and device variation.

From this, the maximum allowable current through the high-side FET (IHSMAX) of device can be described as:

Equation 10. GUID-D7A93CD7-4576-47A6-B667-08D3C1CDAF14-low.gif

where

  • IOUTMAX is the maximum defined DC output current, up to 15 A.

Once the IHSMAX value has been determined, a nominal value of the RILIM resistor can be calculated as follows:

Equation 11. GUID-7BBD42A6-B16D-409F-BC68-8C405E63291B-low.gif

where

  • RILIM value is the nominal resistance necessary for the given IHSMAX value.

A conservative design should also take into account the device variation over VIN and temperature, as seen in the Electrical Characteristics for the ICLR parameter and the typical performance characteristics. These variations can cause the IHSMAX value to increase, depending on the range of the input voltage and junction temperature.
