Figure 30. Circuit Breaker Current Limit Fault
The above timing waveform shows the circuit breaker current limit fault behavior. The timer capacitor is charged
with 240µA when the SENSE pin exceeds V
CB
. If the SENSE pin drops below V
CB
before the TIMER reaches
V
THVT
, the timer capacitor will be discharged with 6µA. In the above figure when TIMER exceeds V
THVT
, GATE is
pulled low immediately to disconnect power to the load.
