Input Overvoltage Protection
A similar design approach as the previous Undervoltage
Detection example is recommended for the overvoltage
protection circuitry, resistors R6 and R7 for OV1, in Figure 1.
For input overvoltage protection, the first consideration is to
establish the input voltage level that indicates an overvoltage
triggering a system (output voltage) shut down. For our
example, the input value for which the Channel 1 12V supply
will signal an “output shutdown” is 13.2V (+10%). Similarly,
from the previous example:
1) Choose R7 to satisfy 100µA condition.
R7 ≥ VOV1(MIN) ≥ 1.19V ≥ 11.9kΩ
100µA 100µA
R7 is chosen as 13.0kΩ ±1%
2) Thus, following the previous example and
substituting R6 and R7 for R12 and R13,
respectively, VOV1(MIN) for VFB1(MAX), and 13.2V
overvoltage for 10.5V output “good,” the same
formula yields R6 of 131.2kΩ. The nearest
standard 1% value is 130kΩ.
Now, consider the 12.6V maximum input voltage
(VCC1 +5%), the higher tolerance for R7 and lower tolerance
for R6, 13.13kΩ and 128.7kΩ, respectively. With 12.6V input,
Micrel
the voltage sensed at the OV1 pin is below VOV1(MIN), and the
MIC2584/85 will not indicate an overvoltage condition until
VCC1 exceeds approximately 13.2V considering the given
tolerances. A similar approach should be used for Channel 2.
PCB Connection Sense
There are several configuration options for the MIC2584/85’s
ON pin to detect if the PCB has been fully seated in the
backplane before initiating a start-up cycle. In Figure 1, the
MIC2584/85 is mounted on the PCB with a resistive divider
network connected to the ON pin. R4 is connected to a short
pin on the PCB edge connector. Until the connectors mate,
the ON pin is held low which keeps the GATE output charge
pump off. Once the connectors mate, the resistor network is
pulled up to the input supply, 12V in this example, and the ON
pin voltage exceeds its threshold (VON) of 1.235V and the
MIC2584/85 initiates a start-up cycle. In Figure 9, the connec-
tion sense consisting of a discrete logic-level MOSFET
and a few resistors allows for interrupt control from the
processor or other signal controller to shut off the output of the
MIC2584/85. R4 pulls the GATE of Q2 to VIN and the ON pin
is held low until the connectors are fully mated. Once the
connectors fully mate, a logic LOW at the /ON_OFF signal
turns Q2 off and allows the ON pin to pull up above its
threshold and initiate a start-up cycle. Applying a logic HIGH
at the /ON_OFF signal will turn Q2 on and short the ON pin
of the MIC2584/85 to ground which turns off the GATE output
charge pump.
