7.3.3 Short-Circuit Protection

The TPS12000-Q1 feature adjustable short circuit protection. The threshold and response time can be adjusted using RISCP resistor and CTMR capacitor respectively. The device senses the voltage across CS+ and CS– pins.

These pins can be connected across an external high and low side current sense resistor (RSNS) as or across the FET drain and source terminals for FET RDSON sensing shown in Figure 7-5, Figure 7-6, Figure 7-7 and Figure 7-8 respectively.

Set the short-circuit detection threshold using an external RISCP resistor across ISCP and GND pins. Use Equation 5 to calculate the required RISCP value:

Equation 5. R I S C P   ( Ω ) =   I S C × R S N S   -   19   m V 2   μ A

Where,

RSNS is the high or low side current sense resistor value or the FET RDSON value.

ISC is the desired short circuit current level.

The short circuit protection response is fastest with no CTMR cap connected across TMR and GND pins.

With device powered ON and EN/UVLO, INP pulled high, During Q1 turn ON, first VGS of external FET is sensed by monitoring the voltage across PD to SRC. Once PD to SRC voltage raises above V(G_GOOD) (7.5V typical) threshold which ensures that the external FET is enhanced, then the SCP comparator output is monitored. If the sensed voltage across CS+ and CS– exceeds the short-circuit set point (VSCP), PD pulls low to SRC and FLT asserts low. Subsequent events can be set either to be auto-retry or latch off as described in following sections.

VGS of external FET (Q1) is only monitored when CS_SEL is pulled low. VGS of external FET (Q1) is not monitored for low side current sensing as shown Figure 7-7 and Figure 7-8.

Note:

Short-circuit threshold can also be set by connecting external bias voltage on ISCP pin via buffer instead of RISCP resistor enabling system design with improved SCP threshold accuracy as mentioned in electrical characteristics table. The external bias voltage to be forced on ISCP pin can be calculated by below eqaution:

V(SCP_BIAS) in mV = ISC x RSNS x 5 - 95mV
