The S-8460 contains a built-in overload protection circuit.
When the output voltage falls because of an overload despite the step-up operation or step-down, the S-8460
enters the step-up operation and holds the maximum duty step-up operation. If this maximum duty state lasts
longer than the overload detection time (t

lasts longer than t

t
the maximum duty operation to the instant at which pin voltage of the EXT1 to EXT3 is held “L” to protect switching
transistors, is expressed by the following equation.
The inductance value (L value) greatly affects the maximum output current (I
As the L value is reduced gradually, the peak current (I
output current I
the switching transistor is insufficient.
As the L value is increased, the dissipation in the switching transistor due to I
reaches the maximum at a certain L value. As the L value is made even larger, the efficiency degrades since the
dissipation due to the series resistance of the coil increases. I
An inductance of 22 μH is recommended for the S-8460.
When choosing an inductor, attention to its allowable current should be paid since the current exceeding the
allowable value will cause magnetic saturation in the inductor, leading to a marked decline in efficiency and
breakdown of the IC due to large current.
An inductor should therefore be selected so as not the peak current I
