Output Short-Circuit Protection Test

Follow the instructions to verify the output short-circuit protection feature of the device:

  1. Set up the oscilloscope as listed in Table 4-10.
    Table 4-10 TPS2640EVM Output Short-Circuit Protection Test
    Oscilloscope SettingCH1 Probe PointsCH2 Probe Points
    Channel 1 = 10 V / divVOUT1 (TP3)VOUT2 (TP12)
    Channel 2 = 10 V / divVIN1 (TP2)VIN2 (TP11)
    Channel 3 = 20 V / divFLTb1 (TP1)FLTb2 (TP10)
    Channel 4 = 2 A / divInput current into T1 +Ve wireInput current into T3 +Ve wire
    Trigger source = Channel 1
    Trigger level = 12 V ±1 V
    Trigger polarity = Falling
    Trigger mode = Single
    Time base2 ms / div
  2. Set the load resistance to 16 Ω ±1 Ω and the power supply voltage to 24 V.
  3. Enable the load and the power supply.
  4. Use either wire or FET to short the output to ground and verify the output short-circuit response waveform as shown in Figure 4-7.
