Pin Function
Power-On Reset Output: Open drain N-channel device, Active Low. This pin
remains asserted during start-up until a time period (t_POR) after the FB pin
voltage rises above the power-good threshold (V_FB). The timing capacitor
C_POR determines t_POR. When the output voltage monitored at the FB pin
falls below V_FB, /POR is asserted for a minimum of one timing cycle (t_POR).
The /POR pin requires a pull-up resistor (10kΩ minimum) to VCC.
ON Input: Active High. The ON pin, an input to a Schmitt-triggered compara-
tor used to enable/disable the controller, is compared to a 1.24V reference
with 50mV of hysteresis. When a logic high is applied to the ON pin
(V_ON > 1.24V), a start-up sequence begins when the GATE pin starts
ramping up towards its final operating voltage. When the ON pin receives a
logic low signal (V_ON < 1.19V), the GATE pin is grounded and /FAULT
remains high if VCC is above the UVLO threshold. ON must be low for 20µs
in order to initiate a start-up sequence. Additionally, toggling the ON pin
LOW to HIGH resets the circuit breaker.
Power-On Reset Timer: A capacitor connected between this pin and ground
sets the supply contact start-up delay (t_START) and the power-on reset
interval (t_POR). When VCC rises above the UVLO threshold, the capacitor
connected to CPOR begins to charge. When the voltage at CPOR crosses
0.3V, the start-up threshold (V_START), a start cycle is initiated if ON is
asserted while capacitor C_POR is immediately discharged to ground. When
the voltage at FB rises above V_FB, capacitor CPOR begins to charge again.
When the voltage at CPOR rises above the power-on reset delay threshold
(V_TH), the timer resets by pulling CPOR to ground, and /POR is de-asserted.
If C_POR = 0, then t_START defaults to 20µs.
Ground connection: Tie to analog ground.
Power-Good Threshold Input (Undervoltage Detect): This input is internally
compared to a 1.24V reference with 30mV of hysteresis. An external
resistive divider may be used to set the voltage at this pin. If this input
momentarily goes below 1.24V, then /POR is activated for one timing cycle,
t_POR, indicating an output undervoltage condition. The /POR signal de-
asserts one timing cycle after the FB pin exceeds the power-good threshold
by 30mV. A 5µs filter on this pin prevents glitches from inadvertently
activating this signal.
Gate Drive Output: Connects to the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET.
An internal clamp ensures that no more than 9V is applied between the
GATE pin and the source of the external MOSFET. The GATE pin is
immediately brought low when either the circuit breaker trips or an
undervoltage lockout condition occurs.
Circuit Breaker Sense Input: A resistor between this pin and VCC sets the
current limit threshold. Whenever the voltage across the sense resistor
exceeds the slow trip current limit threshold (V_TRIPSLOW), the GATE voltage
is adjusted to ensure a constant load current. If V_TRIPSLOW (50mV) is
exceeded for longer than time period t_OCSLOW, then the circuit breaker is
tripped and the GATE pin is immediately pulled low. If the voltage across the
sense resistor exceeds the fast trip circuit breaker threshold, V_TRIPFAST, at
any point due to fast, high amplitude power supply faults, then the GATE pin
is immediately brought low without delay. To disable the circuit breaker, the
SENSE and VCC pins can be tied together.
The default V_TRIPFAST for either device is 100mV. Other fast trip thresholds
are available: 150mV, 200mV, or OFF (V_TRIPFAST disabled). Please contact
factory for availability of other options.
Positive Supply Input: 2.3V to 13.2V. The GATE pin is held low by an
internal undervoltage lockout circuit until VCC exceeds a threshold of 2.2V. If
VCC exceeds 13.2V, an internal shunt regulator protects the chip from
transient voltages up to 20V at the VCC and SENSE pins.
