7.3.5 Switch Current Limit, Short-Circuit Protection

The TPS62843 integrates a current limit on the high-side and low-side MOSFETs to protect the device against overload or short circuit conditions. The current in the switches is monitored cycle by cycle. If the high-side MOSFET current limit, IHS(OC) trips, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and the low-side MOSFET is turned on to ramp down the inductor current. After the inductor current through the low-side switch decreases beneath the low-side MOSFET current limit, ILS(OC), the low-side MOSFET is turned off and the high-side MOSFET turns on again.
