Tool/software: WEBENCH® Design Tools
I am curious about using the LM25085 outside the output current range that is specified in the WEBBENCH "Customize" options. As far as I can see, there is no reason that IC couldn't be used for an even larger load than 10A, so I would like to use the designer to investigate. I haven't found a tool that is so comprehensive and fast -- especially with the new redesign!
How are the range limits for each WEBENCH design enforced (specified by TI?), and is it possible to adjust them, perhaps on a temporary/per-user level? Or run a local version? Maybe there's a workaround already. Or I'm missing something in the datasheet and 10A is an appropriate limit.
Hi Paul,
In the datasheet, Ioutmax is set to 10A and the Webench follows this limit.
Please find the Ioutmax limit in datasheet below. For more information on Ioutmax limit, please view Overview section in datasheet page 11.
If you want to create designs with Iout greater than Ioutmax limit of the device, we request you to please open an e2e ticket in https://e2e.ti.com/support/power_management/non-isolated_dcdc/f/196 forum.
Thanks,
Kiran Kumar
