7.3.13 Hiccup

The LM6x4xx-Q1 employs hiccup overcurrent protection when all of the following conditions are met for 128 consecutive switching cycles:

  • A time greater than tSS2 has passed because soft start has started; see Section 7.3.11.
  • Output voltage is below approximately 0.4 times output setpoint.
  • The part is not operating in dropout defined as having minimum off-time controlled by duty factor.

In hiccup mode, the device shuts down and attempts to soft start after tW. Hiccup mode helps reduce the device power dissipation under severe overcurrent conditions and short circuits.
