DRIVER SECTION The integrated high-current drivers allow using different types of power MOS (also multiple MOS to reduce the R ), maintaining fast switching transition. dsON The drivers for the high-side mosfets use BOOTx pins for supply and PHASEx ...
Page 12
L6712A L6712 circuitry reads the current during the time in which the low-side mosfet is on (OFF Time). During this time, the reaction keeps the pin ISENx and PGNDSx at the same voltage while during the time in which the ...

I OCPx Since the device senses the output current across the low-side mosfets (or across a sense resistors in series with them) the device limits the bottom of the inductor current triangular waveform: an over current is detected when the ...
