ILIMIT vs. IOUT Measured
When in current limit, the switches are designed to act
as a constant-current source to the load. As the load
tries to pull more than the maximum current, VOUT drops
and the input-to-output voltage differential increases. As
the (VIN − VOUT) voltage differential increases, the IC
internal temperature also increases. To limit the IC’s
power dissipation, the current limit is reduced as a
function of output voltage.
This folding back of ILIMIT can be generalized by plotting
ILIMIT as a function of VOUT, as shown in Figures 3 and 4.
The slope of VOUT between IOUT = 0V and IOUT = ILIMIT
(where ILIMIT is a normalized 1A) is determined by RON of
the switch and ILIMIT.

When measuring IOUT it is important to remember voltage
dependence, otherwise the measurement data may
appear to indicate a problem when none really exists.
This voltage dependence is illustrated in Figures 5 and
6.
In Figure 5, output current is measured as VOUT is pulled
below VIN, with the test terminating when VOUT is 1V
below VIN. Observe that once ILIMIT is reached IOUT
remains constant throughout the remainder of the test. In
Figure 6 this test is repeated but with (VIN − VOUT) is 4V.

Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO)
The switches have an Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO)
feature that will shut down the switch in a reproducible
manner when the input power supply voltage goes too
low. The UVLO circuit disables the output until the
supply voltage exceeds the UVLO threshold. Hysteresis
in the UVLO circuit prevents noise and finite circuit
impedance from causing chatter during turn-on and turn-
off. While disable by the UVLO circuit, the output switch
(power MOSFET) is OFF and no circuit functions, such
as FAULT/ or ENABLE, are considered to be valid or
operative.
