SENSE RESISTOR CONSIDERATIONS
The fault current level at which the LTC4211’s internal
electronic circuit breaker trips is determined by a sense
resistor connected between the LTC4211’s V
pins and two separate trip points. The first trip point is set
by the SLOW COMP’s threshold, V
occurs should a load current fault condition exist for more
than 20µs. The current level at which the electronic circuit
breaker trips is given by Equation 8:
The second trip point is set by the FAST COMP’s threshold,
V
transients that exist for 300ns or longer. The current level
at which the circuit breaker trips in this case is given by
Equation 9:
As a design aid, the currents at which electronic circuit
breaker trips for common values for R

For proper circuit breaker operation, Kelvin-sense PCB
connections between the sense resistor and the LTC4211’s
V
drawing in Figure 11 illustrates the correct way of making
connections between the LTC4211 and the sense resistor.
PCB layout should be balanced and symmetrical to mini-
mize wiring errors. In addition, the PCB layout for the
sense resistor should include good thermal management
techniques for optimal sense resistor power dissipation.
The power rating of the sense resistor should accommo-
date steady-state fault current levels so that the compo-
nent is not damaged before the circuit breaker trips.
Table 4 in the Appendix lists sense resistors that can be
used with the LTC4211’s circuit breaker.
CALCULATING CIRCUIT BREAKER TRIP CURRENT
For a selected R
trips the circuit breaker is given by Equation 10:
The minimum load current that trips the circuit breaker is
given by Equation 11.
