7 / 15 page 7 FN9030.8 March 10, 2006 Overcurrent Protection The overcurrent function protects the converter from a shorted output by using the upper MOSFETs on-resistance, rDS(ON) to monitor the current. This method enhances the converter’s efficiency and reduces cost by eliminating a current sensing resistor. The overcurrent function cycles the soft-start function in a hiccup mode to provide fault protection. A resistor (ROCSET) programs the overcurrent trip level. An internal 200 µA (typical) current sink develops a voltage across ROCSET that is reference to VIN. When the voltage across the upper MOSFET (also referenced to VIN) exceeds the voltage across ROCSET, the overcurrent function initiates a soft-start sequence. The soft-start function discharges CSS with a 10 µA current sink and inhibits PWM operation. The soft-start function recharges CSS, and PWM operation resumes with the error amplifier clamped to the SS voltage. Should an overload occur while recharging CSS, the soft-start function inhibits PWM operation while fully charging CSS to 4V to complete its cycle. Figure 4 shows this operation with an overload condition. Note that the inductor current increases to over 15A during the CSS charging interval and causes an overcurrent trip. The converter dissipates very little power with this method. The measured input power for the conditions of Figure 4 is 2.5W. The overcurrent function will trip at a peak inductor current (IPEAK) determined by: where IOCSET is the internal OCSET current source (200µA is typical). The OC trip point varies mainly due to the MOSFETs rDS(ON) variations. To avoid overcurrent tripping in the normal operating load range, find the ROCSET resistor from the equation above with: The maximum rDS(ON) at the highest junction temperature. 1. The minimum IOCSET from the specification table. 2. Determine , where ∆I is the output inductor ripple current. For an equation for the ripple current see the section under component guidelines titled Output Inductor Selection. A small ceramic capacitor should be placed in parallel with ROCSET to smooth the voltage across ROCSET in the presence of switching noise on the input voltage. Current Sinking The ISL6522 incorporates a MOSFET shoot-through protection method which allows a converter to sink current as well as source current. Care should be exercised when designing a converter with the ISL6522 when it is known that the converter may sink current. When the converter is sinking current, it is behaving as a boost converter that is regulating its input voltage. This means that the converter is boosting current into the VIN rail, the voltage that is being down-converted. If there is nowhere for this current to go, such as to other distributed loads on the VIN rail, through a voltage limiting protection device, or other methods, the capacitance on the VIN bus will absorb the current. This situation will cause the voltage level of the VIN rail to increase. If the voltage level of the rail is boosted to a level that exceeds the maximum voltage rating of the MOSFETs or the input capacitors, damage may occur to these parts. If the bias voltage for the ISL6522 comes from the VIN rail, then the FIGURE 3.
