Switching an Inductive Load - Infineon® SMART CLAMPING
When switching OFF inductive loads with no path for load current freewheeling available, the output voltage VOUT
drops below ground potential due to the involved inductance ( -diL/dt = -vL/L ; -VOUT ≅ -VL ). To prevent the
destruction of the device due to high voltages, there is a voltage clamp mechanism implemented that keeps the
negative output voltage at a certain level (-VOUT=VS-VSD(CL)). Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 12 for details.

Figure 12 Switching an inductance
Nevertheless, the energy capability of the device is limited because the energy is converted into heat. That’s why
the maximum allowed load inductance is limited as well. Please see Figure 4 for limitations of energy and load
inductance.
For calculationg the demagnization energy, Equation (1) may be used:

The BTF50060-1TEA provides Infineon® SMART CLAMPING functionality. To optimize the energy capability for
single and parallel operation, the clamp voltage VSD(CL) increases over the junction temperature Tj and load current
IL. Figure 33 shows the dependency from Tj for the typical VSD(CL). Please refer also to Figure 15.
