Overload Protection

The TPS1663x devices feature accurate overload current limiting and fast short circuit protection feature. If the load current exceeds the programmed current limit IOL, the device regulates the current through it at IOL eventually reducing the output voltage. The power dissipation across the device during this operation is:

Equation 5. VIN-VOUT×IOL

This can heat up the device and eventually enter into thermal shutdown. The maximum duration for the overcurrent through the FET is tCL_PLIM(dly), 162msec (typical). If the thermal shutdown occurs before this time the internal FET turns OFF and the device operates either in auto-retry or latch off mode based on MODE pin configuration in Table 8-1. Set the current limit using Equation 6.

Equation 6. I O L = 18 R I L I M

where

  • I(OL) is the overload current limit in Ampere
  • R(ILIM) is the current limit resistor in kΩ

During the overload current limiting if the overload condition exists for more than tCL_PLIM_FLT(dly), 1.3msec (typical), the FLT asserts to warn of impending turnoff of the internal FETs due to the subsequent thermal shutdown event or due to tCL_PLIM(dly) timer expiry. The FLT signal remains asserted until the fault condition is removed and the device resumes normal operation. Figure 8-6 and Figure 8-7 illustrate overload current limiting performance.

The TPS1663x devices features ILIM pin short and open fault detection and protection. The internal FET is turned OFF when ILIM pin is detected short or open to GND and it remains OFF until the ILIM pin fault is removed.
