PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS59632-Q1 device includes a current monitor function. The current monitor supplies an analog voltage, proportional to the load current, on the IMON pin.
The current monitor function is related to the OCP selection resistors. The ROCP is the resistor between the OCP-I pin and GND and RCIMON is the resistor between the IMON pin to the OCP-I pin that sets the current monitor gain. Equation 3 shows the calculation for the current monitor gain.

To ensure stable current monitor operation, and at the same time, provide a fast dynamic response, connect a 4.7-nF to 10-nF capacitor from the IMON pin to GND. Connecting higher capacitance will reduce the response time accordingly.
The analog current monitor should be set so that at the maximum processor current (ICC(max)) the IMON voltage should be 1.7 V. This setting corresponds to a digital output current value of ‘FF’ in the telemetry register 03H through I2C. For any other IMON voltage output in the range of 0 to 1.7 V, the digital output varies linearly.
