The TPS40210-Q1 and TPS40211-Q1 devices are current-mode controllers and use a resistor in series with the source terminal power FET to sense current for both the current-mode control and overcurrent protection. The device enters a current-limit state if the voltage on the ISNS pin exceeds the current-limit threshold voltage VISNS(oc) from the Section 6.5. When this happens, the controller discharges the SS capacitor through a relatively high impedance and then attempts to restart. The amount of output current that causes this to happen is dependent on several variables in the converter.
The load current overcurrent threshold is set by proper choice of RISNS. If the converter is operating in discontinuous mode, the current sense resistor is found in Equation 5.
If the converter is operating in continuous conduction mode, RISNS can be found in Equation 6.
where
The TPS40210-Q1 and TPS40211-Q1 devices have a fixed undervoltage lockout (UVLO) that allows the controller to start at a typical input voltage of 4.25 V. If the input voltage is slowly rising, the converter might have less than its designed nominal input voltage available when it has reached regulation. As a result, this can decrease the apparent current-limit load current value and must be taken into consideration when selecting RISNS. The value of VIN used to calculate RISNS must be the value at which the converter finishes start-up. The total converter output current at start-up is the sum of the external load current and the current required to charge the output capacitor(s). See the Section 7.3.5 section of this data sheet for information on calculating the required output capacitor charging current.
The topology of the standard boost converter has no method to limit current from the input to the output in the event of a short circuit fault on the output of the converter. If protection from this type of event is desired, it is necessary to use some secondary protection scheme such as a fuse or rely on the current limit of the upstream power source.
