3 Description
The LMP8646 is a precision current limiter used to
improve the current limit accuracy of any switching or
linear regulator with an available feedback node.
The LMP8646 accepts input signals with a common-
mode voltage ranging from –2 V to 76 V. It has a
variable gain which is used to adjust the sense
current. The gain is configured with a single external
resistor, RG, providing a high level of flexibility and
accuracy up to 2%. The adjustable bandwidth, which
allows the device to be used with a variety of
applications, is configurable with a single external
capacitor in parallel with RG. In addition, the output is
buffered in order to provide a low output impedance.
The LMP8646 is an ideal choice for industrial,
automotive, telecommunications, and consumer
applications where circuit protection and improved
precision systems are required. The LMP8646 is
available in a 6-pin SOT package and can operate at
temperature range of −40°C to 125°C.
