7.3.5 Current Sense and Current Limit

The LM3424-Q1 achieves peak current mode control using a comparator that monitors the main MOSFET (Q1) transistor current, comparing it with the COMP pin voltage as shown in Figure 22. Further, it incorporates a cycle-by-cycle over-current protection function. Current limit is accomplished by a redundant internal current sense comparator. If the voltage at the current sense comparator input (IS) exceeds 245 mV (typical), the on cycle is immediately terminated. The IS input pin has an internal N-channel MOSFET which pulls it down at the conclusion of every cycle. The discharge device remains on an additional 240 ns (typical) after the beginning of a new cycle to blank the leading edge spike on the current sense signal. The leading edge blanking (LEB) determines the minimum achievable on-time (tON-MIN).

There are two possible methods to sense the transistor current. The RDS-ON of the main power MOSFET can be used as the current sense resistance because the IS pin was designed to withstand the high voltages present on the drain when the MOSFET is in the off state. Alternatively, a sense resistor located in the source of the MOSFET may be used for current sensing, however a low inductance (ESL) type is suggested. The cycle-by-cycle current limit (ILIM) can be calculated using either method as the limiting resistance (RLIM):

In general, the external series resistor allows for more design flexibility, however it is important to ensure all of the noise sensitive low power ground connections are connected together local to the controller and a single connection is made to GND.
