TIDUEB8C July 2018 – March 2021 TPS274160
To test the current sense of the TPS4H160 device, each channel is selected by setting the select pins accordingly, the device is powered with 24 V and every channel is loaded with an adjustable current sink. The current sense output is connected to a voltmeter. One channel at a time is tested and the results are plotted in Figure 3-12 and Figure 3-13.
The error is calculated by converting the output voltage to a current: I[mA] = 300 / 768 × U × 1000. The error can than be calculated by E[%] = (ITPS – Iis) / Iis.
