SNVSAB6B March 2017 – July 2018 LP8863-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA.
Boost overvoltage is detected if the FB pin voltage exceeds the VOVPL threshold. When boost overvoltage is detected, BSTOVPL_STATUS bit is set in the INTERRUPT_STATUS_1 register. The boost FET stops switching, and the output voltage is automatically limited. If the BSTOVPL_STATUS bit is continually set (that is, reappears after clearing), it may indicate an issue in the application. Boost overvoltage low is monitored during device normal operation (ACTIVE mode).
A second boost overvoltage high fault is detected if the FB pin voltage exceeds the VOVPH threshold. The LP8863-Q1 device enters the fault recovery state to protect against excessive thermal dissipation caused by high headroom on the LED drivers. When boost overvoltage is detected, BSTOVPH_STATUS bit is set in the INTERRUPT_STATUS_1 register. A fault interrupt is also generated. If the BSTOVPH_STATUS bit is continually set (that is, reappears after clearing), it may indicate an issue in the application. Boost overvoltage high is monitored during device normal operation (ACTIVE mode).
Boost overcurrent is detected if the FB pin voltage drops below the VUVP threshold. A boost OCP fault is detected if the undervoltage condition persists for longer than 110 ms. If the boost overcurrent timer expires before the output voltage recovers, the BSTOCP_STATUS bit is set in the INTERRUPT_STATUS_1 register. The fault recovery state is entered, and a fault interrupt is generated. If the BSTOCP_STATUS bit is permanently set, it may indicate an issue in the application. Boost overcurrent is monitored from the boost start, and fault may trigger during boost start-up.
