Fast-Trip and Short-Circuit Protection

During an output short-circuit event, the current through the device increases very rapidly. When an output short-circuit is detected and output current reaches ISCP level, the device turns off the internal FET after a delay of tSCP_dly.

In case of fast input transients, the current through internal FET rises rapidly, but these transients can lead to false turn-off of internal FET due to excessive flow of current through internal FET. To prevent false tripping during these input transients, the device includes fast-trip comparator, which turns off the internal FET if the output current exceeds Ifast-trip for a duration of tfast-trip. Figure 8-14 shows the short-circuit response of the device.
