Why does the output voltage become 0V when current flows after overcurrent is detected as described by the 'ramp output waveform' in the datasheet for high-side and low-side switch ICs equipped with an overcurrent detection circuit?
The ramp waveform is measured using an electronic load device (constant current mode). After overcurrent is detected, since the device continues the current even after the IC output is current limited, the output voltage will be 0V.
