5.6 TPS26612 Overload Protection Test
Use the following instructions to evaluate current limit behavior of TPS26612 (U3):
1. Set the jumper setting J10 in 1–2 position to set MODE = OPEN
2. Connect a load resistance of 1 kΩ between I_OUT_2 and AGND_2 at connector J9
3. Adjust potentiometer R12 to set 6V at I_IN_2 (J13/ TP16). This action results in a voltage of 15 V at the input
of TPS26612 eFuse (U3)
4. Now apply load of 5 Ω between I_OUT_2 and AGND_2 to trigger overload fault
5. Observe the waveforms using an oscilloscope
show current limit behavior of TPS26612 captured on the TPS2661EVM eFuse
evaluation board.
