PRODUCTION DATA.
For this example, assume that the desired upper current-limit threshold must be below 500 mA to protect an up-stream power supply. Use the IOS equations and Figure 22 to select RILIM.
Select the closest 1% resistor greater than the calculated value: RILIM = 59 kΩ. This sets the maximum current-limit threshold at 500 mA . Use the IOS equations, Figure 22, and the previously calculated value for RILIM to calculate the minimum resulting current-limit threshold.
The resulting minimum current-limit threshold is 400.6 mA with a 59 kΩ resistor.
