Overcurrent Setting - OCSET
The ISL6217A overcurrent protection essentially compares a
user-selectable overcurrent Threshold to the scaled and
sampled output current. An overcurrent condition is defined
when the sampled current is equal to or greater than the
threshold current. A step by step process to design for the
user-desired overcurrent set point is detailed next.
STEP 1: SETTING THE OVERCURRENT THRESHOLD
The overcurrent threshold is represented by the DC current
flowing out of the OCSET pin (See Figure 8). Since the
OCSET pin is held at a constant 1.75V, the user need only
populate a resistor from this pin to ground to set the desired
overcurrent threshold, I
of I
Ohm’s Law to determine the necessary resistor to place from
OCSET to ground:
For example, if the desired overcurrent threshold is 15µA,
the total resistance from OCSET must equal 117k Ω .
STEP 2: SELECTING ISEN RESISTANCE FOR DESIRED
OVERCURRENT LEVEL
After choosing the I
what level of total output current is desired for overcurrent.
Typically, this number is between 150% and 200% of the
maximum operating current of the application. For example,
if the max operating current is 46A, and the user chooses
150% overcurrent, the ISL6217A will shut down if the output
current exceeds 46A*1.5 or 69A. According to the Block
Diagram, the equation below should be used to determine
