PRODUCTION DATA.
The diagram below illustrates the relationship between the VSNS (voltage across RSNS), Gate current, and the timer operation. The diagram is intended to help explain the various parameters in the electrical characteristic table and is not drawn to scale.
Note that IGATE reduces as the sense voltage approaches the current limit threshold and it equals zero at the current limit regulation point. To ensure that the timer always runs when the IC is in regulation the timer starts at a slightly positive IGATE.
