Example Waveforms

Cursor a - the switch is enabled. Cursor b - the capacitor is fully charged. The red arrow shows the inrush current that occurs before the current limit loop asserts.

 Capacitive Load Charging Behavior - No Thermal Fault
TPS1HTC30-Q1, CL lower limit – 2A, 100 uF, 25°C
Figure 4-1 Capacitive Load Charging Behavior - No Thermal Fault

The device is eventually able to charge after turning on or off (auto-retry) several times.

 Capacitive Load Charging Behavior - Thermal Fault
TPS1HTC30-Q1, CL midpoint – 5A, 220 uF, 25°C
Figure 4-2 Capacitive Load Charging Behavior - Thermal Fault

The device is not able to charge the output to VS.

 Capacitive Load Charging Behavior - Fail Case
