PRODUCTION DATA.
PIN | TYPE(1) | DESCRIPTION | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
NO. | NAME | |||
1 | SENSE | I | Input voltage sense: a constant current sink (16 μA typical) at the SENSE pin flows through an external resistor to set the threshold for fault detection. | |
2 | VIN | P | Supply voltage input: the operating voltage range is 5.5 V to 65 V. The internal power-on-reset (POR) circuit typically switches to the active state when the VIN pin is greater than 5.1 V. A small ceramic bypass capacitor close to this pin is recommended to suppress noise. | |
3 | OVP | I | Over-voltage protection comparator input: an external resistor divider from the system input voltage sets the Over-Voltage turn-off threshold. The GATE pin is pulled low when OVP exceeds the typical 2.0-V threshold, but the controller is not latched off. Normal operation resumes when the OVP pin falls below typically 1.76 V. | |
4 | UVLO | I | Under-voltage lock-out comparator input: the UVLO pin is used as an input under-voltage lock-out by connecting this pin to a resistor divider between input supply voltage and ground. The UVLO comparator is activated when EN is high. A voltage greater than typically 1.6 V at the UVLO pin will release the pull down devices on the GATE pin and allow the output to gradually rise. A constant current sink (5.5 µA typical) is provided to ensure the UVLO pin is low in an open circuit condition. | |
5 | EN | I | Enable input: a voltage less than 0.8 V on the EN pin switches the LM5060 to a low current shutdown state. A voltage greater than 2.0 V on the EN pin enables the internal bias circuitry and the UVLO comparator. The GATE pin pull-up bias is enabled when both EN and UVLO are in the high state. A constant current sink (6 µA typical) is provided to ensure the EN pin is low in an open circuit condition. | |
6 | GND | – | Circuit ground | |
7 | TIMER | I/O | Timing capacitor: an external capacitor connected to this pin sets the VDS fault detection delay time. If the TIMER pin exceeds the 2.0-V threshold condition, the LM5060 will latch off the MOSFET and remain off until either the EN, UVLO or VIN (POR) input is toggled low and then high. | |
8 | nPGD | O | Fault status: an open drain output. When the external MOSFET VDS decreases such that the OUT pin voltage exceeds the SENSE pin voltage, the nPGD indicator is active (low = no fault). | |
9 | OUT | I | Output voltage sense: connect to the output rail (external MOSFET source). Internally used to detect VDS and VGS conditions. | |
10 | GATE | O | Gate drive output: connect to the external MOSFET’s gate. A charge-pump driven constant current source (24 µA typical) charges the GATE pin. An internal zener clamps the GATE pin at typically 16.8 V above the OUT pin. The ΔV/Δt of the output voltage can be reduced by connecting a capacitor from the GATE pin to ground. |
