SLVSG43B December 2023 – July 2025 TPSI3100-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
There are several sources of error that contribute to total error in the overcurrent detection accuracy. These include:
For this design, an overcurrent protection accuracy of ±10% is required. The voltage reference tolerance of the TPSI3100-Q1 can be found in the Electrical Characteristics section of the data sheet and includes the comparator offset error.
The resistor tolerances of the resistor divider are chosen as 1%. The reference voltage tolerance is ±1.5%. Lastly, the selected shunt resistor tolerance is ±1%.
It is assumed that all error contributors are independent variables, so that the total expected error adds in a root mean squared fashion as follows:
