current mode loop to avoid sub-harmonic instability with duty cycle greater than 50%, is
internally implemented and no further external components are required.
The chipset supply is able to source the following average and peak currents, assuming
1 A peak-to-peak inductor current ripple:
Table 9.
The peak current and the inductor ripple must be carefully evaluated in order to choose the
right current limit protection; this feature is performed by sensing the internal high side
MOSFET current and can be decreased by inserting an external resistor between CSNS pin
and AGND (see
Both rails are able to protect the load from over-voltage and under-voltage protection, which
avoid the output to be higher than 120% or lower than 60% of the nominal value (see
Chapter 7.11.1: Output overvoltage on page 33
on page 33
When the EN_1S5 or EN_1S05 pin goes high the respective rail is turned on and the output
voltage soft-start is performed by slowly charging the rail output capacitor; this behavior is
achieved because the loop voltage reference is increased linearly from zero up to 0.8V (see
Chapter 7.6: Outputs soft-start on page 28
EN_1S05 pin goes low, the respective rail output capacitor is discharged through internal
discharge MOSFET and, at the end of the capacitor discharge, the low side power MOSFET
is finally closed (see
Each rail has a dedicated pin to assert if its output voltage is not in the power good window,
i.e. if the output voltage drops 10% below or rises 10% above the nominal regulated value.
These power good signals (PG_1S5 and PG_1S05 pins) are open drain outputs, tied to
GND in the following conditions:
●
●
●
The PG_1S5 and PG_1S05 pins can sink current up to 4 mA when it’s asserted low.
