9.2.2.6 Overcurrent and Short Circuit Protection

A standard desaturation circuit can be applied to the DESAT pin. If the voltage of the DESAT pin is higher than the threshold VDESAT, the soft turn-off is initiated. A fault is reported to the input side to DSP/MCU. The output is held to LOW after the fault is detected, and can only be reset by the RST/EN pin. The state-of-art overcurrent and short circuit detection time helps to ensure a short shutdown time for SiC MOSFET and IGBT.

If DESAT pin is not in use, it must be tied to COM to avoid overcurrent fault false triggering.

  • TI recommends fast reverse recovery high voltage diode in the desaturation circuit. A resistor is recommended in series with the high voltage diode to limit the inrush current.
  • Ti recommends a Schottky diode from COM to DESAT to prevent driver damage caused by negative voltage.
  • TI recommends a Zener diode from COM to DESAT to prevent driver damage caused by positive voltage.
