Active Current Limiting During Start-Up

The TPS22811x devices respond to output overcurrent conditions during start-up by actively limiting the current. If the load current exceeds the set overcurrent threshold (ILIM) set by the IMON pin resistor (RIMON), but stays lower than the fast-trip threshold (IFT), the current limit loop starts regulating the FET to actively limit the current to the set overcurrent threshold (ILIM). Equation 5 can be used to calculate the RIMON value for a desired overcurrent threshold.

Equation 5. RIMON =6595ILIM A
Note:
  1. Leaving the IMON pin open sets the current limit to nearly zero and results in the part entering current limit with the slightest amount of loading at the output.
  2. The current limit circuit employs a foldback mechanism. The current limit threshold in the foldback region (0 V < VOUT < VFB) is lower than the target current limit threshold (ILIM).
  3. Connecting the IMON pin to GND disables the active current limit protection during start-up.

During active current limit, the output voltage drops, resulting in increased device power dissipation across the FET. If the device internal temperature (TJ) exceeds the thermal shutdown threshold (TSD), the FET is turned off. After the part shuts down due to TSD fault, it stays latched off.
