When the voltage produced by this current (through the
current-sense resistor) exceeds the current-limit com-
parator threshold, the MOSFET driver (OUT) quickly ter-
minates the on-cycle. In most cases, a short-time
constant RC filter is required to filter out the leading-
edge spike on the sense waveform. The amplitude and
width of the leading edge depends on the gate capaci-
tance, drain capacitance (including interwinding capac-
itance), and switching speed (MOSFET turn-on time).
Set the RC time constant just long enough to suppress
the leading edge. For a given design, measure the lead-
ing spike at the highest input and rated output load to
determine the value of the RC filter.
The low 305mV current-limit threshold reduces the
power dissipation in the current-sense resistor. The cur-
rent-limit threshold can be further reduced by adding
an offset to the CS input from REG5 voltage. Do not
reduce the current-limit threshold below 150mV as it
may cause noise issues. See Figure 4. For a new value
of the current-limit threshold (V
