PRODUCTION DATA
The current sense resistor between the CS and CSG pins should be selected to ensure that current limit is set high enough for both buck and boost modes of operation. For the buck operation, the current limit resistor is given by:
For the boost mode of operation, the current limit resistor is given by:
The closest standard value of RSENSE = 8 mΩ is selected based on the boost mode operation.
The maximum power dissipation in RSENSE happens at VIN(MIN):
Therefore, a sense resistor with 2-W power rating will be sufficient for this application.
For some application circuits, it can be required to add a filter network to attenuate noise in the CS and CSG sense lines. See Figure 8-1 for typical values. The filter resistance should not exceed 100 Ω.
