Internal Pass MOSFET

RTN pin provides the negative power return path for the load. Once VVDD exceeds the UVLO threshold, the internal pass MOSFET pulls RTN to VSS. Inrush limiting prevents the RTN current from exceeding a nominal value of about 200 mA and 335 mA for the TPS2373-3 and TPS2373-4 respectively until the bulk capacitance (CBULK in Figure 30) is fully charged. Two conditions must be met to reach the end of inrush phase. The first one is when the RTN current drops below about 90% of nominal inrush current at which point the current limit is changed to 1.85 A for TPS2373-3 and 2.2 A for TPS2373-4, while the second one is to ensure a minimum inrush delay period of ~81.5 ms (tINR_DEL) from beginning of the inrush phase. The PG output becomes high impedance to signal the downstream load that the bulk capacitance is fully charged and the inrush period has been completed.

If RTN ever exceeds about 14.5 V for longer than ~1.65 ms, then the TPS2373 returns to inrush phase; note that in this particular case, the second condition described above about inrush phase duration (81.5 ms) is not applicable.
