6.3.5 Current Limit

The LMR14010A implements current mode control which uses the internal COMP voltage to turn off the high side MOSFET on a cycle by cycle basis. Each cycle the switch current and internal COMP voltage are compared, when the peak switch current intersects the COMP voltage, the high-side switch is turned off. During overcurrent conditions that pull the output voltage low, the error amplifier will respond by driving the COMP node high, increasing the switch current. The error amplifier output is clamped internally, which functions as a switch current limit.
