6.3.4 Overcurrent Protection and Short-Circuit Protection (OCP and SCP)
The TPS40170 has the capability to set a two-level overcurrent protection. The first level of overcurrent protection (OCP) is the normal overload setting based on low-side MOSFET voltage sensing. The second level of protection is the heavy overload setting such as short-circuit based on the high-side MOSFET voltage sensing. This protection takes effect immediately. The second level is termed short-circuit protection (SCP).
The OCP level is set by the ILIM pin voltage. A current (IILIM) is sourced into the ILIM pin from which a resistor RILIM is connected to GND. Resistor RILIM sets the first level of overcurrent limit. The OCP is based on the low-side FET voltage at the switch-node (SW pin) when the LDRV is ON after a blanking time, which is the product of inductor current and low-side FET turn-on resistance RDS(on). The voltage is inverted and compared to ILIM pin voltage. If it is greater than the ILIM pin voltage, then a 3-bit counter inside the device increments the fault-count by 1 at the start of the next switching cycle. Alternatively, if it is less than the ILIM pin voltage, then the counter inside the device decrements the fault-count by 1. When the fault-count reaches 7, an overcurrent fault (OC_FAULT) is declared and both the HDRV and LDRV are turned OFF. The resistor RILIM can be calculated by the following Equation 6.
The SCP level is set by a multiple of the ILIM pin voltage. The multiplier has three discrete values, 3, 7 or 15 times, which can be selected by respectively choosing a 10-kΩ, open circuit, or 20 kΩ resistor from LDRV pin to GND. This multiplier AOC information is translated during the tCAL time, which starts after the enable and UVLO conditions are met.
The SCP is based on sensing the high-side FET voltage drop from VVIN to VSW when the HDRV is ON after a blanking time, which is product of inductor current and high-side FET turn-on resistance RDS(on). The voltage is compared to the product of multiplier and the ILIM pin voltage. If it exceeds the product, then the fault-count is immediately set to 7 and the OC_FAULT is declared. The HDRV is terminated immediately without waiting for the duty cycle to end. When an OC_FAULT is declared, both the HDRV and LDRV are turned OFF. The appropriate multiplier (A), can be selected using Equation 7.
Figure 6-4 shows the functional block of the two-level overcurrent protection.
Figure 6-4 OCP and SCP Protection Functional Block Diagram Both OCP and SCP are based on low-side and high-side MOSFET voltage sensing at the SW node. Excessive ringing on the SW node can have negative impact on the accuracy of OCP and SCP. Adding an RC snubber from the SW node to GND helps minimize the potential impact.
