Current Sense Setting and Switch Peak Current Limit (CSA, CSB)

The peak current limit is set by the sense resistor RSNS. The positive peak current limit is active when CSA − CSB reaches the threshold VCLTH (typical 60mV or 29mV). The negative peak current limit is active when VNCLTH (typical −28mV) is reached. R1 and R2 in Figure 6-20 are 0Ω, R3 is open.

Equation 15. RSNS=Ipeak_limVCLTH

Adjust the peak current limit by adding the resistors R1, R2 and R3. Resistors R1 and R2 need to have the same value. Select the resistors <1Ω because the CS amplifier is supplied by the CSA pin. Select R3 between 1Ω and 20Ω.

Equation 16. Ipeak_lim=R1+R2R3+1×VCLTHRSNS

The negative peak current limit of typically −28mV is an additional safety protection and usually not reached as the negative current is already limited by the COMP-pin voltage. VCOMP is clamped at typically 160mV, which limits the switch current at around −20mV sense voltage.
