5.6 Transient Overload Performance

Use the following instructions to observe the transient overload performance:

  1. Configure the Jumper J6 position to desired reference voltage for overcurrent protection as mentioned in Table 4-3.
  2. Configure the Jumper J5 and J7 in a good position to set required current limiting threshold (IOCP) as per Table 4-3.
  3. Connect an electronic load (capable of applying load transients of up to 200A) between VOUT (Connector T2) and PGND (Connector T3) and leave the load disabled.
  4. Set the input supply voltage VIN to 12V and current limit of 200A.
  5. Connect the power supply between VIN (Connector T1) and PGND (Connector T3) and enable the power supply.
  6. Now apply an overload using the electronic load in the range of IOCP < ILOAD < 2 × IOCP for a time duration less than 250µs (blanking timer duration)
  7. Observe the waveforms using an oscilloscope.

Figure 5-11 shows transient overload performance of TPS25984B eFuse on TPS25984BEVM eFuse evaluation board with two (2) devices in parallel.
