The overcurrent detection circuit limits the current and outputs an error flag (/OC) when the current flowing in switch
MOSFET exceeds overcurrent threshold (I
The timer is reset when the state of the overcurrent is terminated before passing of T
TH
).
. After a state of overcurrent is
BLANK
passed at blanking time, the switch is shut down and the overcurrent signal (/OC) changes to Low level.
The latch is reset through it input Low to EN or detects UVLO. Normal operation is returned by EN signal is set to High or
UVLO is off. (Fig. 4, Fig. 5).
The over current limit circuit works when EN signal is enable.
2. Thermal shutdown circuit(TSD)
Thermal shutdown circuit turns off the switch and outputs an error flag (/OC) when the junction temperature exceeds
150°C (typ.). Therefore, when the junction temperature goes down to 150°C (typ), the switch output and an error flag (/OC)
are recovered automatically. This operating is repeated until cause of junction temperature increase is removed or EN
signal is set Disable. Thermal shutdown circuit works when EN signal is enable.
3. Under voltage lockout (UVLO)
UVLO keeps the switch-off state at MOSFET until VIN exceeds 2.3V (Typ.). If VIN drops under 2.2V (Typ.) while the switch
is turning on, then UVLO shuts off the power switch.
Under voltage lockout works when EN signal is enable.
4. Overcurrent signal output
Overcurrent signal output (/OC)is N-MOS open drain output. At detection of overcurrent, thermal shutdown, output is Low level.

When excessive current flows owing to output shortcircuit or so, ringing occurs by inductance of power source line to IC, and
may cause bad influences upon IC actions. In order to avoid this case, connect a bypath capacitor by IN terminal and GND
terminal of IC. 1uF or higher is recommended.

external parts or dispersion of IC including not only static characteristics but also transient characteristics.
This system connection diagram doesn’t guarantee operating as the application.
The external circuit constant and so on is changed and it uses, in which there are adequate margins by taking into account
external parts or dispersion of IC including not only static characteristics but also transient characteristics.
An excess in the absolute maximum ratings, such as supply voltage, temperature range of operating conditions, etc., can
break down devices, thus making impossible to identify breaking mode such as a short circuit or an open circuit. If any
special mode exceeding the absolute maximum ratings is assumed, consideration should be given to take physical safety
measures including the use of fuses, etc.
(2) Operating conditions
These conditions represent a range within which characteristics can be provided approximately as expected. The electrical
characteristics are guaranteed under the conditions of each parameter.
(3) Reverse connection of power supply connector
The reverse connection of power supply connector can break down ICs. Take protective measures against the breakdown due
to the reverse connection, such as mounting an external diode between the power supply and the IC’s power supply terminal.
(4) Power supply line
Design PCB pattern to provide low impedance for the wiring between the power supply and the GND lines. In this regard,
for the digital block power supply and the analog block power supply, even though these power supplies has the same
level of potential, separate the power supply pattern for the digital block from that for the analog block, thus suppressing
the diffraction of digital noises to the analog block power supply resulting from impedance common to the wiring patterns.
For the GND line, give consideration to design the patterns in a similar manner.
Furthermore, for all power supply terminals to ICs, mount a capacitor between the power supply and the GND terminal. At the
same time, in order to use an electrolytic capacitor, thoroughly check to be sure the characteristics of the capacitor to be used
present no problem including the occurrence of capacity dropout at a low temperature, thus determining the constant.
(5) GND voltage
Make setting of the potential of the GND terminal so that it will be maintained at the minimum in any operating state.
Furthermore, check to be sure no terminals are at a potential lower than the GND voltage including an actual electric transient.
(6) Short circuit between terminals and erroneous mounting
In order to mount ICs on a set PCB, pay thorough attention to the direction and offset of the ICs. Erroneous mounting can
break down the ICs. Furthermore, if a short circuit occurs due to foreign matters entering between terminals or between
the terminal and the power supply or the GND terminal, the ICs can break down.
(7) Operation in strong electromagnetic field
Be noted that using ICs in the strong electromagnetic field can malfunction them.
(8) Inspection with set PCB
On the inspection with the set PCB, if a capacitor is connected to a low-impedance IC terminal, the IC can suffer stress.
Therefore, be sure to discharge from the set PCB by each process. Furthermore, in order to mount or dismount the set
PCB to/from the jig for the inspection process, be sure to turn OFF the power supply and then mount the set PCB to the jig.
After the completion of the inspection, be sure to turn OFF the power supply and then dismount it from the jig. In addition,
for protection against static electricity, establish a ground for the assembly process and pay thorough attention to the
transportation and the storage of the set PCB.
(9) Input terminals
In terms of the construction of IC, parasitic elements are inevitably formed in relation to potential. The operation of the parasitic
element can cause interference with circuit operation, thus resulting in a malfunction and then breakdown of the input terminal.
Therefore, pay thorough attention not to handle the input terminals, such as to apply to the input terminals a voltage lower than
the GND respectively, so that any parasitic element will operate. Furthermore, do not apply a voltage to the input terminals when
no power supply voltage is applied to the IC. In addition, even if the power supply voltage is applied, apply to the input terminals
a voltage lower than the power supply voltage or within the guaranteed value of electrical characteristics.
(10) Ground wiring pattern
If small-signal GND and large-current GND are provided, It will be recommended to separate the large-current GND
pattern from the small-signal GND pattern and establish a single ground at the reference point of the set PCB so that
resistance to the wiring pattern and voltage fluctuations due to a larg
small-signal GND. Pay attention not to cause fluctuations in the GND wiring pattern of external parts as well.
(11) External capacitor
In order to use a ceramic capacitor as the external capacitor, determine the constant with consideration given to a
degradation in the nominal capacitance due to DC bias and changes in the capacitance due to temperature, etc.
(12) Thermal shutdown circuit (TSD)
When junction temperatures become detected temperatures or higher, the thermal shutdown circuit operates and turns a
switch OFF. The thermal shutdown circuit, which is aimed at isolating the LSI from thermal runaway as much as possible,
is not aimed at the protection or guarantee of the LSI. Therefore, do not continuously use the LSI with this circuit
operating or use the LSI assuming its operation.
(13) Thermal design
Perform thermal design in which there are adequate margins by taking into account the power dissipation (Pd) in actual states of use.
