Additional Features
OUTPUT OVER-VOLTAGE COMPARATOR
The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.92V internal reference.
If FB rises above 0.92V the on-time is immediately terminat-
ed. This condition is known as over-voltage protection (OVP).
It can occur if the input voltage is increased very suddenly or
if the output load is decreased very suddenly. Once OVP is
activated, the top MOSFET on-times will be inhibited until the
condition clears. Additionally, the synchronous MOSFET will
remain on until inductor current falls to zero.
CURRENT LIMIT
Current limit detection is carried out during the off-time by
monitoring the current in the synchronous MOSFET. Refer-
ring to the Functional Block Diagram, when the top MOSFET
is turned off, the inductor current flows through the load, the
PGND pin and the internal synchronous MOSFET. If this cur-
rent exceeds 2.6 A (typical) the current limit comparator dis-
ables the start of the next on-time period. The next switching
cycle will occur only if the FB input is less than 0.8V and the
inductor current has decreased below 2.6 A. Inductor current
is monitored during the period of time the synchronous MOS-
FET is conducting. So long as inductor current exceeds 2.6A,
further on-time intervals for the top MOSFET will not occur.
Switching frequency is lower during current limit due to the
longer off-time. It should also be noted that current limit is
dependent on both duty cycle and temperature as illustrated
in the graphs in the typical performance section.
THERMAL PROTECTION
The junction temperature of the LMZ14202 should not be al-
lowed to exceed its maximum ratings. Thermal protection is
implemented by an internal Thermal Shutdown circuit which
activates at 165 °C (typ) causing the device to enter a low
power standby state. In this state the main MOSFET remains
off causing V
discharged to ground. Thermal protection helps prevent
catastrophic failures for accidental device overheating. When
the junction temperature falls back below 145 °C (typ Hyst =
20 °C) the SS pin is released, V
operation resumes.
Applications requiring maximum output current especially
those at high input voltage may require application derating
at elevated temperatures.
ZERO COIL CURRENT DETECTION
The current of the lower (synchronous) MOSFET is monitored
by a zero coil current detection circuit which inhibits the syn-
chronous MOSFET when its current reaches zero until the
next on-time. This circuit enables the DCM operating mode,
which improves efficiency at light loads.

PRE-BIASED STARTUP
The LMZ14202 will properly start up into a pre-biased output.
This startup situation is common in multiple rail logic applica-
tions where current paths may exist between different power
rails during the startup sequence. The following scope cap-
ture shows proper behavior during this event.
