Over Current Protection (OCP)
The uP1542 detects voltage drop across the lower
LGATE (10V/Div)
MOSFET (VPHASE) for over current protection when it is
turned on. If VPHASE is lower than the user-programmable
voltage VOCP, the uP1542 asserts OCP and shuts down
the converter. The OCP level can be programmed by OCS
pin (uP1542S/U) or fixed at 300mV (uP1542Q).
