8.3.7.1 Adjustable Current Limiting for Inrush Control

Adjustable current limit feature of the device allows precise control of inrush current during capacitive load charging. By selecting an appropriate external resistor value on the ILIM pin, designers can:

  • Tailor the maximum charging current to match specific capacitive load requirements.

  • Protect upstream power supplies from excessive current draw during startup.

  • Reduce PCB trace width requirements and connector sizing by limiting peak currents.

  • Minimize voltage droop on the supply rail during capacitive charging.

  • Enable the use of smaller, more cost-effective components throughout the system.

Figure 8-28 and Figure 8-29 compares the 1mF capacitive load charging at same conditions with device configured to maximum (ILIM pin shorted to ground (STG)) and minimum (ILIM pin OPEN) current limit setting. The lower current limit limits the inrush current while charging the capacitive load and provides clean startup without triggering thermal shutdown.
