7.3.9 Current Sense and Positive Overcurrent Protection

For a buck converter, during the on-time of the high-side FET, the switch current increases at a linear rate determined by input voltage, output voltage, the on-time, and the output inductor value. During the on-time of the low-side FET, this current decreases linearly. The average value of the switch current equals to the load current.

The output overcurrent limit (OCL) in the TPS54JA20 device is implemented using a cycle-by-cycle valley current detect control circuit. The inductor current is monitored during the on-time of the low-side FET by measuring the low-side FET drain-to-source current. If the measured drain-to-source current of the low-side FET is above the current limit threshold, the low-side FET stays ON until the current level becomes lower than the current limit threshold. This type of behavior reduces the average output current sourced by the device. During an overcurrent condition, the current to the load exceeds the current to the output capacitors. Thus, the output voltage tends to decrease. Eventually, when the output voltage falls below the undervoltage-protection threshold (80%), the UVP comparator detects it and shuts down the device after a wait time of 68 µs. The device remains latched off state (both high-side and low-side FETs are latched off) until a reset of VIN or a re-toggling on EN pin. Figure 7-3 shows the cycle-by-cycle valley current limit behavior as well as the wait time before the device shuts down.

If an OCL condition happens during start-up, the device still has cycle-by-cycle current limit based on low-side valley current. After soft start is finished, the UV event, which is caused by the OC event, shuts down the device and enters latch-off mode with a wait time of 68 µs.

The resistor, RTRIP, connected from the TRIP pin to AGND sets current limit threshold. A ±1% tolerance resistor is highly recommended because a worse tolerance resistor provides less accurate OCL threshold. Equation 4 calculates the RTRIP for a given overcurrent limit threshold on the device. To simplify the calculation, use a constant, KOCL, to replace the value of 6x104. Equation 5 calculates the overcurrent limit threshold for a given RTRIP value. The tolerance of KOCL is listed in the Electrical Characteristics to help you analyze the tolerance of the overcurrent limit threshold.

To protect the device from unexpected connection on TRIP pin, an internal fixed OCL clamp is implemented. This internal OCL clamp limits the maximum valley current on LS FET when the TRIP pin has too small resistance to AGND, or is accidently shorted to ground.
