9 / 13 page 1V to 16V, Single-Channel, Hot-Swap Controllers with Precision Current-Sensing Output 9 Detailed Description The hot-swap controllers provide electronic circuit- breaker protection and precision current sensing for a single-supply voltage from 1V to 16V. Programmable undervoltage and overvoltage protection qualifies the supply voltage prior to enhancing the external n-channel MOSFET with the internal gate driver. The VariableSpeed/BiLevel fault levels are program- mable with external resistors providing both slow and fast circuit-breaker protection. The transconductance current-sense amplifier provides continuous current monitoring with high accuracy and features a calibration mode for production testing. Programmable Undervoltage and Overvoltage Protection The programmable undervoltage and overvoltage pro- tection enables the hot-swap channel when the voltage at UV is above 590mV, and the voltage at OV is below 590mV. After the hot-swap channel is enabled, the hot- swap channel is disabled if the voltage at OV exceeds the 590mV threshold. Gate Driver An integrated 5V charge pump supplies the gate-driver output of the devices, allowing it to fully enhance the external n-channel MOSFET during normal operation. The 5FA (typ) current source at GATE slowly charges the gate-to-source capacitance of the external n-channel MOSFET to 5V (typ) relative to the SOURCE input. Programmable Fast-Trip and Slow-Trip Overcurrent Circuit Breaker During normal operation with the channel turned on, two analog comparators are used to detect an overcurrent condition by comparing the voltage across the external sense resistor (RSENSE) connected between IN and SENSE to the voltages across the respective external overcurrent circuit-breaker threshold set resistors con- nected from IN to FCOMP and SCOMP. Precision cur- rent sources at the FCOMP and SCOMP inputs establish these thresholds. If the voltage across the sense resistor is less than the fast-trip and slow-trip overcurrent circuit-breaker thresholds, the GATE output remains high. If either of the thresholds is exceeded due to an overcurrent condi- tion, the GATE output is pulled down to SOURCE by a 500mA current sink, and the FAULT and PG outputs are asserted low. If the sense voltage rises above the fast circuit-breaker threshold, the devices turn off the external MOSFET in 200ns (typ). If the sense voltage rises above the slow circuit-breaker threshold, the internal timer begins counting. If the sense voltage remains above the slow circuit-breaker threshold until the timer expires, the devices turn off the external MOSFET. The slow circuit-breaker timer occurs in 1ms (typ) when the slow-current comparator threshold is over- driven by 1mV and 130Fs (typ) when overdriven by 50mV. Current-Sense Amplifier The integrated transconductance current-sense ampli- fier features high accuracy with less than 1% error over its 10mV to 50mV input range, and provides continu- ous current monitoring into the load. The sense voltage of the external sense resistor connected between IN and SENSE is multiplied by the transconductance gain (2500FS typ) of the amplifier with the resulting current output at CSOUT. Calibration Mode The devices' calibration mode bypasses the trans- conductance amplifier inputs to measure the voltage between IN and CALSENSE when the calibration mode select input CAL is high. This enables the user to apply a known calibration voltage across the current-sense amplifier input. This voltage corresponds to a full scale for the actual sense voltage. During the calibration mode, the current-sense amplifier only measures the calibration voltage between IN and CALSENSE. The calibration mode is completely asynchronous and does not disrupt the circuit-breaker threshold compari- son. Once in calibration mode there is no expiration until the CAL input is brought low. This allows the calibration to occur at multiple voltages by applying various calibra- tion voltages during the calibration mode. Fault Output The FAULT output goes low when a slow or fast com- parator current-limit fault has occurred. On the MAX5977A, the device is latched in fault mode until it is reset either by initiating a full power-on reset or pulling UV below 590mV. On the MAX5977B, the device reenables the hot-swap output after the autoretry timer has expired in 175ms and FAULT is pulled high if the fault condition has been removed and startup conditions are met. |
