PRODUCTION DATA
The buck controllers (BUCK1, BUCK2, and BUCK6) have inductor-valley current-limit architecture and the current limit is programmable by an external resistor at the ILIMx pin. Equation 1 shows the calculation for a desired resistor value, depending on specific application conditions. ILIMREF is the current source out of the ILIMx pin that is typically 50 µA, and RDSON is the maximum channel resistance of the low-side FET. The scaling factor is 1.3 to take into account all errors and temperature variations of RDSON, ILIMREF, and RILIM. Finally, 8 is another scaling factor associated with ILIMREF.

The buck converter limit inductor peak current cycle-by-cycle to IIND_LIM is specified in Section 6.8, Electrical Characteristics: Synchronous Buck Converters.
