Self Test Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
Description
The NCS37012 is a fully UL943 compliant signal processor for
GFCI applications with self test. The device integrates a flexible
power supply (including both shunt and LDO regulators), differential
fault, and grounded-neutral detection circuits. Proprietary impedance
measurement and signal processing techniques are used to minimize
the number of external components and improve performance. The
device also includes a specialized DSP controller that offers best in
class immunity to nuisance loads without the need for external analog
filters. Self test is monitored every 17 minutes through an external
current path and internally generated grounded neutral fault.
Features
• 6.0 – 12 Volt Operation (120 − 480 V AC mains with the appropriate
series impedance)
• −40 to 85°C
• Very Low Power Consumption: <15 mW @ 5 V
• 16 Pin QFN Package or 20 Pin TSSOP Package
• Single Current Transformer (CT) Detection of both Differential and
Grounded−Neutral Faults
• Full Self Test and Trip Indicator Monitoring
• Self Syncing Internal Oscillator Adjusts to AC Mains Frequency to
Guarantee Full Resolution on 50 and 60 Hz Distribution Systems
• Optimized Solenoid Deployment (coil is not energized near the AC
mains zero crossings)
• Randomized Testing Sequence to Minimize Noise and Potential
Interactions on the AC Mains
• >5 mA SCR Driver for use with High Igt SCR’s for Improved Noise
Immunity
• Superior Immunity to Nuisance Loads/Noise (up to 10 A) without
Loss of Detection Capability or CT Saturation
• These Devices are Pb−Free, Halogen Free/BFR Free and are RoHS
Compliant
Typical Applications
• Load Panel GFCI Breakers
• GFCI Receptacles
• In−line GFCI Circuits (power cords)
