1 Description

The RHRPMICL1A is an integrated current limiter designed to work as a high-side gate driver or intelligent power switch driver, with an external P-channel power MOSFET. It can be used as a universal solution to protect a power supply (from 8.5 V) from anomalous external current demand (for example, even in case of a short-circuit condition).
The device can operate with a supply voltage range from 8.5 V to 52 V. An undervoltage lockout circuitry guarantees the appropriate power supply integrity.
As the device can operate in floating ground configuration, in this user manual GND, the ground pin of the RHRPMICL1A device (pin 7), and MGND the ground of main bus are defined.
In case of overload, the device behavior changes according to its configured mode of operation:
Latched mode, the device provides current limitation capability for an external configurable time, called trip­off time, and if the overcurrent condition exceeds this time, the device switches OFF. In this case, the device may be switched ON again through the telecommand pin only or a UVLO deactivation/activation cycle
Re-triggerable mode, after the trip-off time, that is externally configurable, the device switches OFF and remains in this state for a recovery time that is externally configurable. Once this time elapses, the device recovers its typical operation mode if the overload condition disappears, otherwise it switches cyclically ON and OFF again while the overload persists (hic-up mode)
Foldback mode, in case of overload, the device provides current limitation with a value decreasing in tracking with the output voltage, reaching a fixed and safe value even if a short-circuit persists
The mode of operation can be selected by configuring the RHRPMICL1A pins according to the following configuration table, which is implemented in the evaluation boards:

2 Common features and parameters

This section describes the features that are in common to the three boards, such as: UVLO, floating ground configuration, current limitation, analog and digital telemetries, and explains how to customize them by changing the external components on the board.

2.1 Undervoltage lockout and hysteresis settings

UM2605
Common features and parameters
The UVLO and hysteresis can be programmed by a set of three resistors: the R
A 220 kΩ resistor is generally used for RV, the other two resistors are obtained by the following equations:
Where K=150 is a corrective fixed value to be added to Eq. (1) in order to take into account that during the rising phase of supply voltage, in the UVLO external resistor divider, R
the RHRPMICL1A.

2.2 Gate driving

The driver circuit is designed to drive an external P-channel power MOSFET (connected in high-side configuration) providing on the Vg pin a voltage signal in the range VCC down to (VCC - 12 V). All the evaluation
boards are equipped with a through-hole socket where the power MOSFET can be easily housed.
When the device is ON and no current limitation is active, the Vg node is pulled down and the gate of the external MOSFET is internally clamped, about 12 V below the supply voltage VCC. When the MOSFET has to be switched
OFF, Vg is brought up to VCC.
When the MOSFET is in current limitation mode, the Vg voltage is a value inside the range [VCC-12 V, VCC], defined by the limitation control loop.
2.3

Current sense and limitation function

The voltage drop on the external R compared with a fixed 100 mV internally generated threshold.
The current limitation threshold can be externally set according to the application requirements by a suitable choice of the R
In the re-triggerable and latched evaluation boards it is:
If the voltage drop on R internal timer starts counting the trip-off time TON and the device enters the current limitation mode. In such a condition the limitation control loop is enabled in order to force Vg to the proper voltage level, limiting the current
to the load.
Please refer Section 5.1.2.2 Bill of material of the EVAL-RHRICL1AFV1 board for the current limitation settings in the foldback mode evaluation board.

2.4 Floating ground configuration

The evaluation boards are equipped with the R (GND) and the system ground (MGND).
An embedded 14.8 V Zener diode chain allows the device to operate in floating ground configuration and protects the ICL device as its internal voltage supply is clamped at VZ ~ 15 V (14.8 V typ).
According to the voltage value of the Bus supply and depending on the value of RGND, the device can work (or not) in floating ground condition, as follows:

1. Vcc <14.8 V
The Zener diode chain is OFF and the R the device. Since the typical current consumption of the ICL device is ~ 1.5 mA (the current contribution of the

This current consumption is given by the sum of two contributors:
1. The net current consumption of the RHRPMICL1A (considering the internal Zener diode chain current as zero)
2. The current consumption of the Zener diode chain in ON-state

The analog telemetry circuit gives information about the current flowing across the load. This circuit provides on the TM pin a source current whose value is instantly proportional to the current flowing from the bus supply line to the load.

3 Features: EVAL-RHRICL1ATV1, re-triggerable mode

3.1 Getting started

The EVAL-RHRICL1ATV1 evaluation board is customized to allow the test of re-triggerable operative mode of the RHRPMICL1A integrated current limiter (ICL).
In the re-triggerable mode, the ICL restarts automatically, recovering its normal operating mode if the current limitation cause is removed; besides, during any overload or output short-condition events, after the T
recovery time elapses, the device tries to re-start for a dedicated TON slot time (trip-off time).
The configuration pins of the ICL in this mode are:
Telecommand interface: disabled (TC_ON and TC_OFF both connected to VCC)
SET_STS is connected to V
SET_FLB is connected to GND
TON is connected to C
TON is connected to C

4.1 Getting started

The EVAL-RHRICL1ALV1 evaluation board is customized to allow the test of latched operative mode of the RHRPMICL1A integrated current limiter (ICL).
In the latched mode, if the duration of the overcurrent event is greater than the trip-off time TON, the device remains in current limitation for the TON interval, then the external MOSFET is latched OFF until a reset is given through either the telecommand interface or a UVLO activation/deactivation cycle. Depending on the SET_STS
pin logic status the device can be programmed to start up in latched-on or latched-off mode.
The configuration pins of the ICL in this mode of operation are the following:
Telecommand interface: enabled
SET_STS is connected to V
SET_FLB is shorted to GND
TON is connected to C

TOFF is connected to GND
The external components of the board are pre-set to accomplish the following features:

4.2.2 Trip-off time programming

In latched mode, if the duration of the overcurrent is greater than the trip-off time TON, the device remains in current limitation for the TON interval, after the external MOSFET is switched OFF and stays OFF until the device is reset through the telecommand interface or UVLO activation/deactivation cycling. The trip-off time TON is set by the CON capacitor connected between the pins TON and GND, and it is calculated by the following formula:

4.2.3 Telecommand interface

The telecommand interface is available through the TC_ON and TC_OFF pins of the ICL device. On the EVAL­RHRICL1ALV1 board the telecommand pins are driven by two additional MOSFET transistors (NCH_1 and NCH_2). The gates of these transistors are available by TC3 connector.
The device is switched-ON by applying a positive pulse signal of the typical duration of 100 μs between terminal 3 and 2 of connector TC3 (Figure 12. Latched evaluation board schematic ); or in alternative way, the device is switched-ON by applying a negative pulse signal of the typical duration of 100μs directly to the pin TC_ON.
The device is switched-OFF by applying a positive pulse signal of the typical duration of 100 μs between terminal 1 and 2 of connector TC3 (Figure 12. Latched evaluation board schematic ); or in alternative way, the device is switched-OFF by applying a negative pulse signal of the typical duration of 100 μs directly to the pin TC_ON.
In order to have a more robust implementation, unwanted ON/OFF pulses having a short duration (< 10 μs) are ignored giving out a sort of noise immunity of the telecommand system. In case of contemporaneous application of ON and OFF commands, the OFF command has the priority; this means for example that, in case of a failure of the telecommand interface resulting in a permanent ON state, it is possible to switch OFF the device by sending an OFF command.
The typical behavior of the device configured in latched mode is depicted below (timing not in scale).

Features: EVAL-RHRICL1AFV1, foldback mode

5 Features: EVAL-RHRICL1AFV1, foldback mode

5.1 Getting started

The EVAL-RHRICL1AFV1 evaluation board is customized to allow the test of foldback operative mode of the RHRPMICL1A integrated current limiter (ICL).
In the foldback mode, when an overcurrent event is detected, the ICL device provides a current limitation profile whose value goes to tracking with the output voltage, reaching a small and safe value IF (see Figure 20. Foldback
current limiter characteristic even if a short-circuit on the load side occurs and persists.
This allows maintaining a safe power dissipation without shutting down the device, in case of failure.
The pin configuration of the ICL in this operation mode is:
Telecommand interface: disabled (TC_ON and TC_OFF both connected to VCC)
SET_STS is connected to V
SET_FLB is connected to VCC (Foldback mode enabled)
TON and TOFF are connected to GND
The external components of the board are pre-set to accomplish the following features:
VCC = 22 V with V
TH_ON
HYS = 1 V
I
LIM
= 2 A
IF = 100 mA
(on at start-up)
CC
= 18 V and V
TH_OFF
= 17 V
UM2605
The evaluation board schematic is shown below. Please note that the capacitor Csns_3, connected in parallel to the R
, affects the dynamic of the reaction time and therefore the decision whether to mount it or not is up to
SENSE
the application needs of the end user.

5.1.1 Operation

5.1.1.1 Power on and testing environment
Connect a 22 V power supply to CN5, the load on CN6.
The telecommand section is not activated in this evaluation board. The analog and digital telemetries are accessible on the RTM and R
resistors respectively.

5.1.1.2 Current limit and foldback current programming
The V-I characteristic of a foldback current limiter developed with the EVAL-RHRICL1FV1A evaluation board is shown below (two curves are depicted, showing the foldback characteristics for two different values of IF):
Figure 20. Foldback current limiter characteristic
UM2605 - Rev 1
This behavior is obtained by adding two sensing resistors RS3+ and RS3- between the R ISNS+ and ISNS- pins of the RHRPMICL1A device. In addition, the foldback resistor R
FLB
terminals and
SENSE
is connected between
the power MOSFET drain and ISNS- pin.
Thanks to this sensing network, the output current in foldback mode, referring to Figure 20. Foldback current
limiter characteristic, is given by:
VCC− VF− R + R
I =
FLB*IFLB
R
SENSE
− R + R
SENSE*IRS
page 19/27

UM2605
Getting started
where:
VF is the output voltage of V/I characteristic of Figure 20. Foldback current limiter characteristic (0 V in case of a short-circuit condition)
“IRS“ is a design parameter referring to the input current of the current sense amplifier, having a typical value of 500 μA
R=RS3+=RS3-
I
Of course, in case of output short-circuit condition, VF = 0 V and I = IF, i.e. the small and safe value (see
Figure 20. Foldback current limiter characteristic) reached when a short-circuit on the load side occurs and
persists.
The Eq. (10) and Eq. (11) are intended as a theoretical support to estimate the foldback current I (or IF) and do not take into account the variation due to external component accuracy and matching, as well as the standard process variations. Trimming on the final application is necessary.
In order to obtain the best results, it is recommended to use well-matched high precision resistors (0.1%) for RS3+ and RS3- and R
The typical behavior of the device configured in latched mode is depicted below (timing is not in scale).
