PRODUCTION DATA
GOK/FLT pin acts as an fault indicator output and also as an input to sense and synchronize faults between parallel eFuses.
Table 7-2 summarizes the device response to various fault conditions.
Event or Condition | Device Response | Fault Latched Internally | GOK/FLT Pin Status | Delay |
---|---|---|---|---|
Steady-state | None | N/A | H | |
Inrush | None | N/A | H | |
Overtemperature | Shutdown | Y | L | |
Undervoltage (EN/UVLO) | Shutdown | N | L | |
Undervoltage (VIN UVP) at startup | Shutdown | N | L | Till Insertion Delay |
Undervoltage (VIN UVP) in steady state | Shutdown | N | H | |
Overvoltage (VIN OVP) | Shutdown | N | L | |
Transient overcurrent | None | N | H | |
Persistent overcurrent (steady-state) | Circuit-Breaker | Y | L | tITIMER |
Persistent overcurrent (start-up) | Current Limit | N | L | |
Short-circuit | Fast-trip | Y | L | tFT |
Start-up timeout | Shutdown | Y | L | tSU_TMR |
FET health fault (G-S) | Shutdown | Y | L | 10 μs |
FET health fault (G-D) | Shutdown | Y | L |
GOK/FLT is an open-drain pin and must be pulled up to an external supply.
For faults that are latched internally, power cycling the part or pulling the EN/UVLO pin voltage below VSD(F) clears the fault and the pin is de-asserted. This action also clears the tRST timer (auto-retry mode only). Pulling the EN/UVLO just below the UVLO threshold has no impact on the device in this condition. This is true for both latch-off and auto-retry modes of operation.
