Leading Edge Blanking (LEB)
TLEB
There are parasitic capacitances in the circuit
which can cause a high-current spike during the
turn-on period of the internal MOSFET. In order
to avoid premature termination of the switching
pulse, an internal leading edge blanking (LEB)
unit is employed. During the blanking time, the t
current comparator is disabled and blocked
from turning off the internal MOSFET (see Fig. FIGURE 6. Leading Edge Blanking (LEB)
