ZHCSTJ2A October 2023 – May 2024 TPS3762-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
RESET time delay (tCTR) occurs when the RESET is transitioning from a fault state (VOL) to a non-fault state (VOH). The time delay (tCTR) can be programmed by connecting a capacitor between CTR pin and GND. For situations with a fault on SENSE after RESET recovers, the TPS3762-Q1 makes sure that the CTR capacitor is fully discharged before starting the recovery sequence. This makes sure that the programmed CTR time is maintained for consecutive faults.
The relationship between external capacitor CCTR_EXT (typ) and the time delay tCTR (typ) is given by Equation 1.
RCTR (typ) = is in mega ohms (MΩ)
CCTR_EXT (typ) = is given in microfarads (μF)
tCTR (typ) = is the reset time delay/delays
The reset delay varies according to three variables: the external capacitor (CCTR_EXT), CTR pin internal resistance (RCTR) provided in Section 7.5, and the constant (tCTR (no cap)) provided in Section 7.6. The minimum and maximum variance due to the constant is show in Equation 5 and Equation 6:
There is no limit to the capacitor on CTR pin. Having a too large of a capacitor value can cause very slow charge up (rise times) due to capacitor leakage and system noise can cause the internal circuit to hold RESET active.
* Leakages on the capacitor can effect accuracy of reset time delay.
