TPS2561: RILM / Current Limit Question

Part Number: TPS2561

Hey folks, 

I have a question regarding the TPS2561ADRC RILM. 

The datasheet states:

The overcurrent threshold is user programmable via an external resistor, RILIM. RILIM sets the current-limit

threshold for both channels

 

Question:

Is the IOS limit set by the RILIM resistor the current limit for each channel or the current limit for both channels.  In other words if I set the current limit to 900 mA, can both outputs supply 900 mA simultaneously or does this mean that the sum of the output currents (IOUT1 + IOUT 2 will be limited to 900 mA?

Thanks,

AH
