CURRENT LIMIT, FAULT DETECTION AND SOFT START

Current limit is implemented when the current sensed on

ILIM reaches the 1V limit. At this point, the PWM cycle is

terminated. The flip flop (Figure 10) turns on the current

source to charge CRST and remains on for the duration of

the clock period. When CRST has charged to 3.4V, a soft

start reset occurs. The number of times the PWM cycle is

terminated due to over-current is “remembered” on CRST.

Over time, CRST is discharged by RRST providing a

measure of “forgetting” when the over-current condition

no longer occurs. This integrating fault detection is useful

in differentiation between short circuit and load surge

conditions.

Since the per cycle charge on RCRESET is proportional to

how early in the power cycle the over-current occurs, a

reset will occur more quickly under output short circuit

conditions (Figures 11a and 11b) than during a load surge

(Figures 11c and 11d).

When the soft start reset occurs, the output is inhibited

and the soft start capacitor is discharged. The output will

remain off until CRST discharges to 1.3V through RRST,

providing a reset delay. When the IC restarts, the error

amplifier output voltage is limited to the voltage at SOFT

START, thus limiting the duty cycle.
