7.3.4.3 Output Overvoltage Protection

The UCC14240-Q1 devices sense the output voltage through FBVDD and FBVEE pins to control the output voltage. To prevent the output voltage becomes too high, damages the load or UCC14240-Q1 device itself, the UCC14240-Q1 devices are equipped with the output overvoltage protection. There are two levels of overvoltage protection, based on the feedback pin voltage, and the output voltage.

During the normal operation, because of load transient, or load unbalancing between two outputs, the output voltages can exceed its regulation level. Based on the pin voltages on FBVDD and FBVEE, after the voltage exceeds the threshold, VVDD_OVP_RISE, or VVEE_OVP_RISE (10% above the target regulation voltage), the converter stops switching immediately.

In rare cases, the voltage divider becomes malfunction and gives the wrong output voltage information. In turn, the control loop can regulate the output voltages at a wrong voltage level. The UCC14240-Q1 device is also equipped with a fail-safe overvoltage protection. After the VDD-VEE voltage becomes higher than the overvoltage protection threshold VVDD_OVLOS_RISE, the converter shuts down immediately. This fail-safe protection level is set at 31 V. It is meant to protect UCC14240-Q1 devices, instead of the load. The design must ensure the voltage feedback divider normal operation at all conditions.

The output overvoltage protections have the latch-off response.
