ADVANCE INFORMATION
The TPSI310x, TPSI311x, TPSI312x, and TPSI313x family implements an internal UVLO protection feature for both input (VDDP) and output power supplies (VDDM and VDDH). The device remains disabled until VDDP exceeds its rising UVLO threshold. When the VDDP supply voltage falls below its falling threshold voltage, the device attempts to send data information to quickly assert VDRV low, regardless of the state of EN. This depends on the rate of VDDP loss. If VDDP collapses too fast to send the information, a timeout mechanism ensures VDRV is asserted low within tHL_VDRV_PD. A VDDP ULVO event causes PGOOD, FLT1, and ALM1 to assert low.
The VDDH and VDDM UVLO circuits monitor the voltage on VDDH and VDDM, respectively. VDRV is only asserted high if both the VDDH and VDDM UVLO rising thresholds are surpassed. If either VDDH or VDDM fall below their respective UVLO falling thresholds, VDRV is immediately asserted low. The UVLO protection blocks feature hysteresis, which helps to improve the noise immunity of the power supply. During turn on and turn off, the driver sources and sinks a peak transient current, which can result in voltage drop of the VDDH and VDDM power supplies. The UVLO protection circuits ignores the associated noise during these normal switching transients.
