Current limiting for a boost converter
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a power supply circuit. The power supply circuit generally includes: a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) having an inductive element and a first switch coupled to the inductive element; a feedback path coupled between an output of the SMPS and a control input of the first switch; and a current limit circuit comprising a first capacitive element, a charge circuit coupled to the first capacitive element, a first current source, a first resistive element coupled to the first current source, the capacitive element being coupled to a node between the resistive element and the first current source, a sample-and-hold circuit coupled to the first capacitive element, and a clamp circuit coupled between the sample-and-hold circuit and the feedback path.
