7.3.7 Current Sense, Overcurrent, and Short-Circuit Protection

The TPS53318 and TPS53319 device offer cycle-by-cycle overcurrent limiting control. The inductor current is monitored during the OFF state and the controller maintains the OFF state during the period in that the inductor current is larger than the overcurrent trip level. To provide both good accuracy and cost effective design, the TPS53319 device supports temperature compensated MOSFET RDS(on) sensing. The TRIP pin must be connected to GND through the trip voltage setting resistor, RTRIP. The TRIP terminal sources current (ITRIP) which is 10 μA typically at room temperature, and the trip level is set to the OCL trip voltage VTRIP as shown in Equation 2.

Equation 2. TPS53318 TPS53319

The inductor current is monitored by the LL pin. The GND pin is used as the positive current sensing node and the LL pin is used as the negative current sense node. The trip current, ITRIP has a 3000ppm/°C temperature slope to compensate the temperature dependency of the RDS(on). For each device, ITRIP is also adjusted based on the device-specific on-resistance measurement in production tests to eliminate the any OCP variation from device to device. Duty-cycle must not be over 45% to provide the most accurate OCP.

As the comparison is made during the OFF state, VTRIP sets the valley level of the inductor current. Thus, the load current at the overcurrent threshold, IOCP, can be calculated as shown in Equation 3.

Equation 3. TPS53318 TPS53319

where

  • RTRIP is in Ω

In an overcurrent or short-circuit condition, the current to the load exceeds the current to the output capacitor thus the output voltage tends to decrease. Eventually, it crosses the undervoltage protection threshold and shuts down. After a hiccup delay (16 ms plus 0.7 ms soft-start period), the controller restarts. If the overcurrent condition remains, the procedure is repeated and the device enters hiccup mode.

Equation 4. TPS53318 TPS53319

where

  • n = 8, 9, 10, or 11 depending on soft-start time selection

For the TPS53318 device, the OCP threshold is internally clamped to 10.5 A. The recommended RTRIP value for the TPS53318 device is less than 150 kΩ.
