JAJSNM6F November 2004 – January 2022 TPS2384
PRODUCTION DATA
After successful discovery and classification of a valid PD, the power is delivered by controlling the current to the PD until its current requirements are met or until the internal current limit is reached (approximately 425 mA). The power switch is fully enhanced after 500 μs. Figure 8-7 shows the voltage and the current that is being applied to the PD during power up and reaching the PD load of 250 mA.
After power has been applied to the PD, the TPS2384 automatically enters the current and voltage sample mode. The sample mode performs 31 current measurements and 1 voltage measurement. Each measurement takes approximately 18 ms to complete. The port remains powered and the current and voltage measurement cycle continues until a fault condition occurs. The current and voltage measurements are both stored in the A/D current and voltage registers and can be accessed through the I2C pins. This feature allows power management in the AM if it is desired.
