Over-Current Protection
The over current protection is performed by
sensing current through the R
side MOSFET. This method enhances the
converter’s efficiency and reduces cost by
eliminating a current sense resistor. As shown in
figure 7, an external resistor (R
between OCSet pin and the drain of the low-side
MOSFET (Q2) which determines the current limit
set point.
The internal current source develops a voltage
across R
turned on, the inductor current flows through the
Q2 and results in a voltage which is given by:
The critical inductor current can be calculated by
setting:
Fig. 7: Connection of over current sensing resistor
An over-current is detected if the OCSet pin goes
below ground. This trips the OCP comparator
and cycles the soft start function in hiccup mode.
The hiccup is performed by charging and
discharging the soft-start capacitor in a certain
slope rate. As shown in figure 8, a 3uA current
source is used to discharge the soft-start
capacitor.
The OCP comparator resets after every soft start
cycle. The converter stays in this mode until the
overload or short circuit is removed. The
converter will automatically recover.

The OCP circuit starts sampling current when the
low gate drive is about 3V. The OCSet pin is
internally clamped during deadtime to prevent
false trigging. Figure 9 shows the OCSet pin
during one switching cycle. As shown, there is
about 150ns delay to mask the deadtime. Since
this node contains switching noises, this delay
also functions as a filter.
