Current-Limit Protection

The APW7142 monitors the output current, flows through

the high-side power MOSFET, and limits the current peak

at current-limit level to prevent loads and the IC from dam-

aging during overload or short-circuit conditions.

Frequency Foldback

The foldback frequency is controlled by the FB voltage.

When the output is shortened to the ground, the frequency

of the oscillator will be reduced to 80kHz. This lower fre-

quency allows the inductor current to safely discharge,

thereby preventing current runaway. The oscillator’s fre-

quency will gradually increase to its designed rate when

the feedback voltage on the FB again approaches 0.8V.
