TPS25200: Current limit operation case

Part Number: TPS25200

Hi Team,

I would like to know because there is not enough understanding of the “8.3.3 Overcurrent Protection” part of the datasheet.

"The second condition is when a short circuit, partial short circuit, or transient overload occurs while the device is
enabled and powered on. The device responds to the overcurrent condition within time tIOS (see Figure 12). The
current-sense amplifier is overdriven during this time and momentarily disables the internal current-limit
MOSFET. "

How do you decide the difference between “short circuit and temporary overload” and “just over Ios”?

For example, isn't inrush current considered a “short circuit or temporary overload”?

Best  Regards,

Kenji
