eFuse Design Specifications:
RIL (Ω) = 45500 / (IL (A)) = 7.58 kΩ; standard value 7.59 kΩ
Calculations were also made accounting for a 10% drop in supply (4.5 V). The following calculations show that with an RTOP of 100 kΩ, that RBOTTOM is 11.66 kΩ; modified to a standard value of 11.5 kΩ.
where
Standard value chosen RBOT_EN = 11.5 kΩ
where
Resulting in: 5.914 V ≥ VIN.
The overvoltage protection (OVP) feature of the device can be configured using a resistor divider from VIN connected to the OVP pin. The trip voltage for the OVP has to be less than the absolute maximum VIN voltage. A voltage at the OVP pin greater than VOVPR trips the OVP feature and turns off the FET and a voltage less than VOVPF keeps the FET on.

Resulting in: 5.17 V ≥ VIN.
The switch is controlled by an on and off input (EN).
