Selection of Current Sense Resistor, RSNS

The recommended range of the overcurrent protection threshold voltage, V(SNS_WRN), extends from 10mV to 200mV. Values near the low threshold of 10mV can be affected by the system noise. Values near the upper threshold of 200mV can cause high power dissipation in the current sense resistor. To minimize both the concerns, 25mV is selected as the overcurrent protection threshold voltage. The current sense resistor, RSNS can be calculated using Equation 15.

Equation 15. R S N S = V S N S - W R N I O C = 25 m V 15 A = 1.66 m Ω

The next smaller available sense resistor 1.5mΩ, 1% is chosen.
