For global overcurrent detection, an increased voltage drop is needed for the

overcurrent sense device (in this case,a low-ohmic resistor). This can be realized by

using a special power supply of 5.1 V ±3 %, as shown in Figure 6.

The PCB resistance may cause a drop of 25 mV, which leaves 75mV for the power

switch and overcurrent sense device.

PSWn_N pins have integrated weak pull-up resistors inside the chip.

9.1.3 Overcurrent protection mode

The ISP1521 supports all overcurrent protection modes: none, global and individual.

No overcurrent protection mode reporting is selected when pin NOOC = HIGH.

Global and individual overcurrentprotection modes are selected using pins PSWn_N,

following the power switching modes selection scheme; seeTabl e 6.

For the global overcurrent protection mode, only PSW1_N and OC1_N are active;

that is, in this mode, the remaining overcurrent indicator pins are disabled. To inhibit

the analog overcurrent detection, the OC_N pins must be connected to VREF(5V0).
