PRODUCTION DATA.
The IC provides a built-in over-load protection to prevent the device and battery from damage when VBUS is over loaded. Once the over load condition is detected, Q1 operates in linear mode to limit the output current. If the over load condition lasts for more than 30ms, the over-load fault is detected. When an over-load condition is detected, the IC turns off the PWM converter, resets OPA_MODE bit to 0, sets fault status bits and sends out fault pulse in STAT pin. The boost will not start until the host clears the fault register.
