SLUSFA1 September 2024 TPS1214-Q1
ADVANCE INFORMATION
The short-circuit current threshold (ISC) can be set RISCP resistor. Use Equation 14 to calculate the required RISCP value.
where
ISC is the short-circuit current threshold in Ampere,
RSNS is external current sense resistor in miliohms,
ISCP is the internal reference current of 25 µA,
When the load current exceeds the ISC threshold then, GATE pulls low to SRC within 5 µs (max) in TPS1214-Q1, protecting the main path FETs and FLT asserts low at the same time. Subsequent to this event, the charge and discharge cycles of CTMR starts similar to the behavior post FET OFF event in the overcurrent protection scheme.
Latch-off can also achieved in the similar way as explained in the overcurrent protection scheme.
