PRODUCTION DATA.
To protect the device and the application, the average input current is limited internally on the IC. At nominal operating conditions, this current limit is constant. The current limit value can be found in the Electrical Characteristics table. The current limit varies depending on the input voltage. A curve of the input current varying with the input voltage is shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 respectively showing the minimum and the maximum current limit expected depending on input and output voltage.
Given the average input current in Figure 5 is then possible to calculate the output current reached in boost mode using Equation 5 and Equation 6 and in buck mode using Equation 7 and Equation 8.
