MIC2586/MIC2586R
Applications Information
External ON/OFF Control
The MIC2586/MIC2586R have an ON pin input that is used
to enable the controller to commence a start-up sequence
upon card insertion or to disable controller operation upon
card removal. In addition, the ON pin can be used to reset
the MIC2586/MIC2586R’s internal electronic circuit breaker
in the event of a load current fault. To reset the electronic
circuit breaker, the ON pin is toggled LOW then HIGH. The
ON pin is internally connected to an analog comparator with
80mV of hysteresis. When the ON pin voltage falls below its
internal V_ONL threshold, the GATE pin is immediately pulled
low. The GATE pin will be held low until the ON pin voltage is
above its internal V_ONH threshold. The external circuit's ON
threshold voltage level is programmed using a resistor divider
(R1 & R2) as shown in the "Typical Application” circuit. The
equations to set the trip points are shown below. For the
following example, the external circuit's ON threshold is set
to V_ONH(EX) = +37V, a value commonly used in +48V Central
Office power distribution applications.

Given V_ONH and R2, a value for R1 can be determined. A
suggested value for R2 is that which will provide
approximately 100µA of current through the voltage divider
chain at V_CC = V_ONH. This yields the following as a starting
point:
R2 = ^VONH(TYP) = ^1.313V = 13.13kΩ
100µA 100µA
The closest standard 1% value for R2 is 13kΩ. Now, solving
for R1 yields:

The closest standard 1% value for R1 is 357kΩ.
Using standard 1% resistor values, the external circuit's
nominal ON and OFF thresholds are:
V_ON(EX) = +36V
V_OFF(EX) = +34V
In solving for V_OFF(EX), replace V_ONH with V_ONL in Equation 10.
Output Voltage Power-is-Good Detection
The MIC2586/86R includes an analog comparator used to
monitor the output voltage of the controller through an
external resistor divider as shown in the "Typical Application"
circuit. The FB input pin is connected to the non-inverting
input and is compared against an internal reference voltage.
The analog comparator exhibits a hysteresis of 80mV.
Setting the "Power-is-Good" threshold for the circuit follows a
similar approach as setting the circuit's ON/OFF input
voltage. The equations to set the trip points are shown
below. For the following +48V telecom application, power-is-
good output signal PWRGD1 (or /PWRGD1) is to be de-
asserted when the output supply voltage is lower than +48V-
10% (+43.2V).

Given V_FBL and R6, a value for R5 can be determined. A
suggested value for R6 is that which will provide
approximately 100µA of current through the voltage divider
chain at V_{OUT(NOT GOOD)} = V_FBL. This yields the following
equation as a starting point:
R6 = ^VFBL(TYP) = ^1.233V = 12.33kΩ
100µA 100µA
The closest standard 1% value for R6 is 12.4kΩ. Now,
solving for R5 yields:

⎡⎛

The closest standard 1% value for R5 is 422kΩ.
Using standard 1% resistor values, the external circuit's
nominal "power-is-good" and "power-is-not-good" output
voltages are:
V_OUT(GOOD) = +46V
V_{OUT(NOT GOOD)} = +43.2V
In solving for V_OUT(GOOD), substitute V_FBH for V_FBL in Equation
11.
Sense Resistor Selection
The sense resistor is nominally valued at:
R_SENSE
=
V_TRIP(TYP)
I_{HOT_SWAP(NOM)}
(12)
where V_TRIP(TYP) is the nominal circuit breaker threshold
voltage (47mV) and I_{HOT_SWAP(NOM)} is the nominal inrush load
current level to trip the internal circuit breaker.
To accommodate worse-case tolerances in the sense
resistor (for a ±1% initial tolerance, allow ±3% tolerance for
variations over time and temperature) and circuit breaker
threshold voltages, a slightly more detailed calculation must
be used to determine the minimum and maximum hot swap
load currents.
The MIC2586/MIC2586R has a minimum current limit
threshold voltage of 39mV, thus the minimum hot swap load
current is determined where the sense resistor is 3% high:
( ) ^{I = HOT_SWAP(MIN)}
39mV

= ^37.9mV
