6.3.10.1 VOUT Overvoltage Protection (OVP)

The Overvoltage Protection (OVP) monitors the VOUT-pin using two thresholds. The programmable threshold VOVP_max-H limiting VOUT to 64V, 50V, 35V or 28.5V, and the VOVP-H threshold limiting VOUT to 110% of the programmed voltage. In BYPASS state the 110% OVP-H detection is disabled, but the VOVP_max-H is active.

When VOUT rises above the VOVP-H threshold (not active during Bypass), the low-side driver is turned off and the high-side driver is turned on. Current flow from VI to VOUT is monitored through CSP1 - CSN1 and when phase 2 is active also through CSP2 - CSN2 allowing current flow from VI to VOUT. The high-side driver is turned off when the current from VI to VOUT is zero or negative preventing current flow from VOUT to VI. When VOUT falls below the VOVP-L threshold the device continues normal operation.

When VOUT rises above the VOVP_max-H threshold, the drivers are turned off and the device enters FAULT state. A power cycle or toggling the UVLO/EN-pin is needed to re-start the device.
