The current to the load is not constant but increases after the initial inrush. Current is low initially
because the voltage across the internal MOSFET is initially at its highest level and the controller is
power limiting the MOSFET.

power limiting the MOSFET.
•
Although the current limit, I
FLT
, is set to 4 A, the start up current never goes above 2.2 A because of
the power limiting. However, 4 A is available to the steady state load when the MOSFET is fully
enhanced.

At the end of the capacitor charge time, the current drops to the dc level powering the resistive part of
the load, about 0.8 A.

Power Good (PG) is true when the output voltage is within 0.3 V of the input voltage.
