9 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

9.1 Application Information

The TPS2400 device provides application flexibility and can be used in many types of systems for load protection.

9.2 Typical Applications

9.2.1 TPS2400 Application

When the TPS2400 disconnects the load from the power supply, the power-supply output-voltage spikes as the stored energy in inductor LS is released. A Zener diode D1 or a small ceramic capacitor can be used to keep the voltage spike at a safe level.

9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

9.2.1.2.1 Controlling the Load Inrush-Current

Figure 16 is a simplified representation of an appliance with a plug-in power supply (for example, wall adapter). When power is first applied to the load in Figure 16, the large filter capacitor CLOAD acts like a short circuit, producing an immediate inrush-current that is limited by the power-supply output resistance and inductance, RS and LS, respectively. This current can be several orders of magnitude greater than the steady-state load current. The large inrush current can damage power connectors P1 and J1 and power switch S1, and stress components. Increasing the power-supply output resistance and inductance lowers the inrush current. However, the former increases system power-dissipation and the latter decreases connector and switch reliability by encouraging the contacts to arc when they bounce.

The TPS2400 circuit in Figure 17 limits the inrush current without these draw backs. The TPS2400 device charges the transistor Q1 gate capacitance CG with a 5-µA source when Q1 is commanded to turn on. Transistor Q1 is wired as a source follower so the gate-voltage slew rate and the load-voltage slew rate are identical and equal to

Equation 1. TPS2400 Eq1_VL_slus599.gif

The corresponding inrush current is:

Equation 2. TPS2400 Eq2_Iinrush_slus599.gif

When solving Equation 1 using CG = 2 nF, we get 2500 V/s. Then we can use Equation 2 to approximate the inrush current of 250 mA.

An external capacitor and a series 1-kΩ resistor can be connected to the gate of Q1 and ground to reduce inrush current further. In this case, the parameter CG in Equation 1 and Equation 2 is the sum of the internal and external FET gate capacitance. The 1-kΩ resistor decouples the external gate capacitor, so the TPS2400 device can rapidly turn off transistor Q1 in response to an overvoltage condition.
