Application Information: continued
regulator output exceeds the voltage on the COMP pin
plus the 1.1V PWM comparator offset prior to the drop
across the current sense resistor exceeding the current limit
threshold. In this case, the PWM control loop has achieved
regulation and the initial pulse is then followed by a con-
stant off time as programmed by the COFF capacitor. The
COMP capacitor will continue to slowly charge and the
regulator output voltage will follow it, less the 1.1V PWM
offset, until it achieves the voltage programmed by the
DAC’s VID input. The Error Amp will then source or sink
current to the COMP cap as required to maintain the cor-
rect regulator DC output voltage. Since the rate of increase
of the COMP pin voltage is typically set much slower than
the regulator’s slew capability, inrush current, output volt-
age, and duty cycle all gradually increase from zero. (See
Figures 7, 8, and 9).

If the voltage across the Current Sense resistor generates a
voltage difference between the VFB and VOUT pins that
exceeds the OVC Comparator Offset Voltage (86mV typi-
cal), the Fault latch is set. This causes the COMP pin to be
quickly discharged, turning off GATE(H) and the upper
NFET since the voltage on the COMP pin is now less than
the 1.1V PWM comparator offset. The Fault latch is reset
when the voltage on the COMP decreases below the
Discharge threshold voltage (0.25V typical). The COMP
capacitor will again begin to charge, and when it exceeds
the 1.1V PWM comparator offset, the regulator output will
Soft Start normally (see Figure 10).
Because the start-up circuit depends on the current sense
function, a current sense resistor should always be used.
