8.3.2 Overcurrent Protection

The buck-boost regulator has two ways of protecting against overcurrent conditions. When the buck-boost is in regulation (essentially the output voltage is at the target voltage), the average current limit provides the protection against overcurrent conditions. When the average current limit is activated (essentially the maximum inductor average current is reached), the output voltage gradually decreases, but the control loop tries to maintain the target output voltage. So when the overcurrent condition clears before the buck-boost control circuit gets too far out of regulation, the output voltage gradually reaches its target voltage level again.

The buck-boost regulator limits the peak-overcurrent in the power MOSFETs. When such a peak-overcurrent event occurs, the device goes into the PRE_RAMP state and a 12-ms time-out is started. The device restarts and goes from the PRE_RAMP state to the RAMP state after this 12-ms time-out expires and the IGN pin is high.

When the device operates in low-power mode, both the average current limit and the peak-current limit protection functions are disabled.
