5.7 Current Limiting for VIN < –Vs

Use the following instructions to evaluate current limit behavior for input voltages lower than negative bias supply (–Vs):

  1. Replace the TPS26610 with TPS26613 in U1 position
  2. The current limiting behavior is independent of MODE setting for VIN < –Vs, so jumper setting J4 can be in any position
  3. Open jumper J6
  4. Connect 600 Ω at terminal J3
  5. Set dual polarity regulated power supply to +20 V : 0 V : –20 V and apply the power at connector J2
  6. Apply a voltage of –24 V at I_IN_1
  7. The device limits the current to 32 mA for approximately 100 ms and then auto retries for every 800 ms

Figure 5-12 shows current limit behavior captured on the TPS2661EVM with TPS26613 in U1 position.
