7.3.8 Measuring LED Current During a Non-Failure Condition

In regular operation mode, one can measure the actual output current of the controller with an external microcontroller by sensing the voltage at the DIAGx pin. The DIAGx pin voltage between 0.2 V and 2.85 V represents in a linear relation the output current measured by the current-sense block across the external shunt resistor. Parameter DIAGfactor gives the scale factor of typically 12.5 (the TPS92601y-Q1 or TPS92602y-Q1 device with 150-mV full-scale current-sense voltage) or 6.25 (the TPS92601A-Q1 or TPS92602A-Q1 device with 300-mV full-scale current-sense voltage). Figure 11 gives the relation between the DIAGx pin voltage and the current-sense voltage.

When the device is in global shutdown mode (when both PWMINx pins go low for t > t(CH_OFF)), both DIAGx pins are low.
