APPLICATION 1: DESIGNING ABOVE A MINIMUM CURRENT LIMIT
Some applications require that current limiting cannot occur below a certain threshold. For this example, assume
that 1 A must be delivered to the load so that the minimum desired current-limit threshold is 1000 mA. Use the
I
OS
equations and Figure 24 to select R
ILIM
.
(2)
Select the closest 1% resistor less than the calculated value: R
ILIM
= 23.7 k. This sets the minimum current-limit
threshold at 1 A . Use the I
OS
equations, Figure 24, and the previously calculated value for R
ILIM
to calculate the
maximum resulting current-limit threshold.
(3)
The resulting maximum current-limit threshold is 1172.4 mA with a 23.7 k resistor.
APPLICATION 2: DESIGNING BELOW A MAXIMUM CURRENT LIMIT
Some applications require that current limiting must occur below a certain threshold. 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 I
OS
equations and Figure 24 to select R
ILIM
.
(4)
Select the closest 1% resistor greater than the calculated value: R
ILIM
= 59 k. This sets the maximum
current-limit threshold at 500 mA . Use the I
OS
equations, Figure 24, and the previously calculated value for R
ILIM
to calculate the minimum resulting current-limit threshold.
(5)
The resulting minimum current-limit threshold is 400.6 mA with a 59 k resistor.
