PRODUCTION DATA
If an external slope compensation resistor is used (see Figure 6-6) the internal control signal will be modified and this will have an effect on the current limit.
If RSL is used, then this will add to the existing slope compensation. The command voltage, VCS, will then be given by:
Where VSENSE is a defined parameter in the Section 5.5 section and ΔVSL is the additional slope compensation generated as discussed in the Section 6.3.3 section. This changes the equation for RSEN to:
Note that because ΔVSL = RSL x K as defined earlier, RSLcan be used to provide an additional method for setting the current limit. In some designs RSL can also be used to help filter noise to keep the ISEN pin quiet.
