The datasheet of the TPS61251 only specifies an accuracy of +/- 10 % when the input current limit is set to 500 mA (20 Kohms). Our customer needs to know what the expected tolerance will be when the input current limit is set to 1000 mA.

Jasper,
The answer to this question affects an architecture and therefore several products. Some in high quantities . Normally, I would accept the datasheet for +/- 10%. BUT I've already needed to reject the TPS61251 because we measured it to be 150mA when set for 100mA. Back then, you provided measurement data showing the part to be over by 70%.
With multiple products relying on this parameter, we cannot afford to repeat that scenario and we need confidence in the performance at 1A. So I wonder if the part is trimmed for 500mA and inaccurate everywhere else or if it's just that the signal is low at 100mA and will be fine at 1A. Since you're the one who sent me the data at 100mA, I know you understand that problem.
So as long as you're confident that the part will be within 10% (or even 20%) at 1A, I'll be OK to use it. I just want to have confidence high in the limits we're using.
Please confirm/elaborate.
