This reference design implements overcurrent protection (OCP) with both external comparator and internal comparator. Figure 2-6 shows OCP with the external comparator, this circuit summarizes three phases of current, then compares to a reference voltage at negative input of U10 to create a high voltage to IPM, then IPM creates overcurrent fault signal and report to microcontroller. The exact overcurrent protection current can be calculated by below equations.
Both MS320F2800137 and MSPM01507 daughterboards can be triggered by this external OCP circuit.
