Accounting for Resistor Tolerance in the USB Switch Current-Limit Accuracy
The previous sections described the selection of R
ILIM
, given certain application requirements and the importance
of understanding the current-limit threshold tolerance. The analysis focused only on the TPS2500 performance
and assumed an exact resistor value. However, resistors sold in quantity are not exact and are bounded by an
upper and lower tolerance centered around a nominal resistance. The additional R
ILIM
resistance tolerance
directly affects the current-limit threshold accuracy at a system level. Table 3 shows a process that accounts for
