7.2.1.2.3 Setting the Current Limit

The current limit of the LM3409 is determined by the current draw of the IADJ pin of the TPS99000-Q1, which is controlled by an internal DAC and an external resistor connected to the R_IADJ pin of the TPS99000-Q1. The approximate peak current limit can be calculated using the following equation:

TPS99000-Q1

Where:

  • VDAC is the voltage of the current control DAC.
  • RADJ is the resistor attached to the R_IADJ pin of the LM3409. Due to the maximum current, this circuit can output, it is recommended that this value be 1kΩ or higher
  • RSCP is the resistor attached to the CSP pin of the LM3409. Use the same value for RCSN.
  • RHSS is the high-side sense resistor of the LM3409 control circuit.
