JAJSO40 December 2022 TPS22997
PRODUCTION DATA
When the switch enables, the charge up the output capacitance from 0 V to the set value (1.8 V in this example). This charge arrives in the form of inrush current. Calculate inrush current using Equation 2.
Where:
The TPS22997 offers an adjustable rise time for VOUT, allowing the user to control the inrush current during turn on. Calculate the appropriate rise time using the design requirements and the inrush current equation as shown below.
To ensure an inrush current of less than 1.5 A, a CT setting that yields a rise time of more than 586 µs must be chosen. By using a 1000pF capacitance, a rise time of 819 μs is selected, limiting the inrush current to below 1.5 A.
