Overvoltage Protection

The overvoltage comparator circuit continually monitors the voltage at the INV pin. If VINV rises above 112% of the 0.85-V reference, the timer begins to charge C18. If the fault condition persists beyond the time tOVPL, the fault latch is set and the high-side drivers are forced OFF, while the low-side drivers are forced ON.

CAUTION: Do not set the SCP terminal to a voltage lower than 1.185 V while the device is timing out an OVP or UVP event. If the SCP terminal is manually set to a voltage lower than 1.185 V during this time, output overshoot can occur. The TPS5124 must be reset by grounding STBYx.
