be supposed linear function of the time.

Eq 8

so the output voltage is given by:

Eq 9

Eq 10

Eq 11

4.5 Current limit

pares this value with the ILIM pin voltage value. While the current is above the current limit value, the control

inhibits the one-shot start.

To properly set the current limit threshold, it should be noted that this is a valley current limit. Average current

The average output current in current limit is given by:

Eq 12

Thus, to set the current threshold, choose RILIM according to the following equation:

Eq 13

In current limit the system keeps the current constant until the output voltage meets the undervolatge threshold.

The system is capable to sink current, but it has not a negative current limit.

The system accuracy is function of the exactness of the resistance connected to ILIM pin and the low side MOS-

tem linearity.
