PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS16530 device features accurate overload current limiting and fast short circuit protection feature. The device supports a pulse current up to 9A (2 × IOL) for transient loads. Table 8-1 describes the overload response of TPS16530 device.
Output Current | Overload or Over-Current Response |
---|---|
IOUT < IOL | No action. Device provides current up-to IOL. |
IOL ≤ IOUT < 2 × IOL | Device provides current up to 2 × IOL for a duration of tCB(dly) and then limits current to IOL for a maximum duration of tCL_ILIM(dly). |
2 × IOL ≤ IOUT < 3 × IOL | Device limits current to 2 × IOL for a maximum duration of tCB(dly) and then limits current to IOL for a maximum duration of tCL_ILIM(dly). |
3 × IOL ≤ IOUT | Device provides fast trip protection or short circuit protection and turns off the internal FET. See the Section 8.3.3.2 section. |
For current limit of IOL, the maximum duration for current limiting is tCL_ILIM(dly), 162 msec (typical). For current limit of 2 × IOL, the maximum duration for current limiting is tCB(dly), 25 msec (typical) .
If the thermal shutdown occurs before this time the internal FET turns OFF and the device operates either in auto-retry or latch off mode based on MODE pin configuration in Table 8-2. Set the current limit using Equation 4.
where
During the overload current limiting, if the overload condition exists for more than tCL_ILIM_FLT(dly), 1.3 msec (typical), the FLT asserts to warn of impending turnoff of the internal FETs due to the subsequent thermal shutdown event or due to tCL_ILIM(dly) timer expiry. The FLT signal remains asserted until the fault condition is removed and the device resumes normal operation. Figure 8-4 shows the device behavior in case of overload event. The device provides a pulse current of 7 A for a duration of 25 ms and then turns off the internal FET due to thermal shutdown before the expiry of tCL_ILIM(dly).
The 2 × I(OL) pulse current support is activated only after PGOOD goes high. If PGOOD is in low state such as during start-up operation or during auto-retry cycles, the 2 × I(OL) pulse current support is not activated and the device limits the current at I(OL) level.
VIN = 58 V | ILIM = 4.5 A | IOUT = 4 A to 7 A |
The TPS16530 device feature ILIM pin short and open fault detection and protection. The internal FET is turned OFF when ILIM pin is detected short or open to GND and it remains OFF till the ILIM pin fault is removed.
