AD8452 VCL function

Hi Team

  Can I connect VCL to ISV resistance instead of RCL ?  Can this  circuit work ? thanks

  • Hi Aggil,

    Do you mean to use only one sense resistor instead of two (one RCL and one current sense shunt)? It may be possible but I'm not sure if that is recommended. My preference would be the datasheet recommended schematic using two sense resistors. I would request you to reach out to a local ADI FAE to consult your idea further. RCL is intended to sense inductor current with big AC ripple that is also meant to establish current limit level for the switching converter operation. The current sense shunt is intended to sense DC current for battery charging.
