7.3.12 Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit

The current-limit circuitry utilizes the current sense amplifier output of the three phases compared with the voltage at ILIMIT pin. Figure 7-28 shows the implementation of current limit circuitry, the output of current sense amplifiers are combined with star connected resistive network. This measured voltage VMEAS is compared with the external reference voltage VLIM on ILIMIT pin to realize the current limit implementation. The relation between current sensed on three phases (IOUTx) and VMEAS threshold is given as:

Equation 5. VMEAS=VVREF2+IOUTA+IOUTB+IOUTC×GAIN/3

where

  • VVREFis the current sense amplifier supply
  • IOUTX is current flowing into the low-side MOSFET
  • CSA_GAIN is the current sense amplifier gain

The current limit threshold can be adjusted by configuring the voltage at ILIMIT pin. Current limit varies linearly between 0A to 4A, as the voltage at ILIMIT pin varies from VREF/2 to VMEAS. A voltage more than VVREF can be applied to disable ILIMIT.

Current limit comparator output is blanked for a blanking time, on every rising edge of high side and low side switch control input (INHx and INLx) and the DRV8376 output state depends on the INHx and INLx status during blanking time. The blanking time is configured through ILIM_BLANK_SEL in SPI device and the blanking time is fixed to 5.5us for slew rate of 50 and 1.8us for all other slew rates in hardware variant.

DRV8376 Current Limit Implementation Figure 7-28 Current Limit Implementation

When then the current limit activates, the high-side FET of each half bride is disabled until the rising edge of the high side (INHx) of that half bridge as shown in Figure 7-29. The low-side FETs can operate in brake mode or Coast (high-Z) mode by configuring the ILIM_MODE bit in the SPI device variant. The low-side FETs operate in Coast (high-Z) mode in the hardware variant.
