JAJSO21B February 2022 – November 2022 TPSM82903
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPSM82903 is protected against overload and short circuit events. If the inductor current exceeds the high-side FET current limit (ILIMH), the high-side switch is turned off and the low-side switch is turned on to ramp down the inductor current. The high-side FET turns on again only if the current in the low-side FET has decreased below the low-side FET current limit threshold.
Due to internal propagation delay, the actual current can exceed the static current limit during that time. The dynamic current limit is given as Equation 1:
where
The current limit can exceed static values, especially if the input voltage is high and very small inductances are used. The dynamic high-side switch peak current can be calculated as follows:
