Hi Experts,
Good day.
Does the current limit circuit here provides overcurrent protection also or just short-circuit protection?
I believed that the current limits circuit is protecting against overcurrent faults too other than the short circuit faults. But in some cases, for example, TPS7A1112PDRVR, the max load current is 500mA but it is providing an output current limit min from 700mA(min for DRV package). So, I didn't get, how it is acting as over-current protection because it should have min 500mA output current limit then. Please insight me more about how here the current limit is protecting against overcurrent faults.
Thanks.
Regards,
Josel
