[TPS2412] Current Limit

Benjamin Mak

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS2412

Hi Team,

I was looking at the TPS2412. I did not see the current limit feature on the datasheet, but was told there was one. Is there a current limit feature on this device? If so, what is the minimum current limit that is possible.

Thank you for your help!

I only saw a reference for an internal current limit for the gate current of the external FET. Since there are no pins for an external sense resistance going to the load, I don't think that this device is capable of doing a load current limit.

Thanks for your response, Albert!

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything.

I just discussed with the IC designer of this IC. It does not have curent limit feature.

Is that answer your question?
