ZHCSGO2H September 2003 – November 2018 LM5007
PRODUCTION DATA.
Resistor RCL sets the current limit off-timer according to Equation 5. The useable values tend to be in the range of 100 kΩ to 1 MΩ. Equation 15 specifies the off-time required for volt-second balance on the inductor in current limit.
where
The programmed current limit off-time should be higher than the off-time needed for volt-second balance on the inductor. For a short at the output (VOUT = 0 V) and VF = 0.7 V, an inductor DCR of 390 mΩ or higher is needed to achieve volt-second balance at the maximum programmed current limit off-time of 17 µs. Using Equation 5, an RCL of greater than 10 kΩ can be used. Select a conservative value of 100 kΩ for this design.
