Current Limit Test
Use the following instructions to perform the current limit test:
•
Set the input supply voltage V
IN
to 24 V and a current limit of 10 A and enable the power supply.
•
Set the current limit to 4.5 A using jumper J4 for CH1 and jumper J9 for CH2.
•
Connect the power supply at input connector T1 for testing CH1 and T3 for testing CH2. Enable the
power supply output.
•
Connect a load of 4.5
Ω
(120 W) at output connector T2 for testing CH1 and T4 for testing CH2.
•
Observe the waveform at V
IN
, V
OUT
, FLT, and I
IN
with an oscilloscope.
•
The device limits the current to 4.5 A for a maximum duration of t
CL_PLIM(dly)
(162 ms), turns off the
internal MOSFET, and auto-retries after a time of t
TSD_retry
(648 ms).
and
show examples of the current limit at 4.5 A for CH1 and CH2, respectively, on the
TPS2663-166EVM.
