Device Functional Modes (continued)

7.4.4 Short-Circuit Protection

The high-side and low side MOSFET switches are short-circuit protected with maximum switch current equal to

MOSFET switch exceeds the threshold of its current limit comparator, it turns off and the low-side MOSFET

switch is activated to ramp down the current in the inductor and high-side MOSFET switch. The high-side

MOSFET switch can only turn on again, once the current in the low-side MOSFET switch has decreased below

the threshold of its current limit comparator.
