PM8800A
inrush current level, which is set by default at 440 mA. Connecting a resistor between VSS
and AUXI_IRL it's possible to adjust this limit to a lower value.
Figure 9.
The maximum inrush current can be set by programming the value of the resistor on the
AUX_IRL pin. Depending on the chosen value there could be 3 steps (when the selected
max current is between 250 and 400 mA), 2 steps (when the selected max current is
between 140 and 250 mA) or a single step.
The formulae to select the desired inrush current is the following:
The PM8800A useful programming range for the inrush current limitation is between
140 mA and 440 mA. Practical resistor value ranges between 25 kΩ and 82 kΩ.
