Cable Compensation

When a load draws current through a long or thin wire, there is an IR drop that reduces the voltage delivered to the load. In the vehicle from the voltage regulator output VOUT to VBUS (input voltage of portable device), the total resistance of PCB trace, connector, and cable resistances causes an IR drop at the portable device input, so the charging current of most portable devices is less than their expected maximum charging current. The voltage drop shows in Figure 10-8.

To handle this case, TPS2585x-Q1 builds in the cable compensation function, which increases the voltage at the SENSE pin to compensate the IR drop in the charging path according to the gain set by RIMON, to maintain a fairly constant output voltage at the load-side voltage.

TPS2585x-Q1 use the switch current-sense output voltage to compensate for the line drop voltage. The cable compensation amplitude increases linearly as the load current increases. It also has an upper limit that the maximum cable compensation voltage is 400 mV, the voltage at USB port clamps below 5.5 V. The cable compensation voltage is programmable through an external resistor at IMON pin. RIMON is then chosen by RIMON = ΔVIMON × 1000 / (IBUS × 0.0169), where ΔVOUT is the desired cable droop compensation voltage at full load. See below Table 10-3 and Figure 10-9.
