3.2 Choose IC Supporting Negative OCP

Negative OCP functionality allows a circuit to have the ability to react to an OCP event in a sinking current case as a positive OCP in a sourcing current case. Most TI devices based on low-side MOSFET on-resistance (RDS (on)) sensing have negative OCP levels with the same magnitude as positive OCP. This is realized by OCP comparator and zero crossing detection circuits as discussed in Negative OCP Functionality.
