Applications Information
Next, choose the synchronous MOSFET switch. Because
of the narrow duty cycle and large current, a single SO-8
MOSFET will have difficulty dissipating the power lost in
the switch. Choosing two IRF7811s (RDS(ON) = 0.013Ω,
CRSS = 60pF) yields a nominal sense voltage of:
VSNS(NOM) = (15A)(0.5)(1.3)(0.013Ω) = 127mV
Tying VRNG to INTVCC will set the current sense voltage
range for a nominal value of 140mV with current limit
occurring at 186mV. To check if the current limit is ac-
ceptable, assume a junction temperature of about 100°C
above a 50°C ambient with ρ150°C = 1.6:
