Current Limit and Over-Temperature
Protection
Over-temperature and current limit circuitry pro-
tects the AAT1155 and the external Schottky diode
during overload, short-circuit, and excessive ambi-
ent temperature conditions. The junction over-tem-
perature threshold is 140°C nominal and has 15°C
of hysteresis. Typical graphs of the over-tempera-
ture load current vs. input voltage and ambient
temperature are shown in the Typical Character-
istics section of this document.
Inductor
The output inductor is selected to limit the ripple cur-
rent to 20% to 40% of the full load current at the max-
imum input voltage. Manufacturer's specifications list
both the inductor DC current rating, which is a ther-
mal limitation, and the peak current rating, which is
determined by the inductor saturation characteristics.
The inductor should not show any appreciable satu-
ration under normal load conditions. During overload
and short-circuit conditions, the inductor can exceed
its peak current rating without affecting the converter
performance. Some inductors may have sufficient
peak and average current ratings yet result in exces-
sive losses due to a high DCR. The losses associat-
ed with the DCR and its effect on the total converter
efficiency must be considered.
For a 2.5A load and the ripple current set to 40% at
the maximum input voltage, the maximum peak-to-

peak ripple current is 1A. Assuming a 5V ±5% input
voltage and 40% ripple, the output inductance
required is:
The factor "k" is the fraction of the full load (40%)
selected for the ripple current at the maximum input
voltage.
The corresponding inductor RMS current is:
ΔI is the peak-to-peak ripple current which is fixed
by the inductor selection above. For a peak-to-
peak current of 40% of the full load current, the
peak current at full load will be 120% of the full
load. The 1.5µH inductor selected from the Sumida
CDRH6D38 series has a 11mΩ DCR and a 4.0A
DC current rating with a height of 4mm. At full load,
the inductor DC loss is 70mW for a 0.84% loss in
efficiency.
