JAJSL38 December 2023 TPSI3100-Q1
ADVANCE INFORMATION
There are several sources of error that contribute to total error in the over-current detection accuracy. These include:
For this design, an over-current protection accuracy of ± 10% is required. The comparator offset and voltage reference tolerance of the TPSI3100-Q1 can be found in the Electrical Characteristics section of the data sheet.
The error contribution due to the current sense amplifier offset can be estimated as follows:
The resistor tolerances of the resistor divider are chosen as 1%. The current sense amplifier gain error is 1%. The reference voltage tolerance is ± 1.5%. Lastly, the selected shunt resistor tolerance is ± 1%
It is assumed that all error contributors are independent variables, so that the total expected error adds in a root mean squared fashion as follows:
