SNVSD17 April 2026 LM5192-Q1
ADVANCE INFORMATION
The LM5192-Q1 includes an internal hiccup mode protection function. When an overload condition occurs, a 512-cycle counter starts counting consecutive cycle-by-cycle current limit incidents after the internal soft-start sequence is completed. The 512-cycle counter is reset if four consecutive switching cycles occur without exceeding the current limit threshold. If after 512-cycle counts are completed, the internal soft start is pulled low and the internal high-side and low-side drivers are disabled. Then, a 16384 counter is enabled. After the counter reaches 16384, the internal soft start is enabled, and the output restarts. Note the hiccup mode current limit is not enabled during soft start and until the output voltage exceeds 50% of the set voltage.
The hiccup mode can be enabled or disabled using the HICCUP_EN bit.
