Package Characteristics

d. For High Level Output Voltage testing, VOH is measured with a DC load current. When driving capacitive loads, VOH will approach VCC2 as IOH approaches zero.

e. Measured with a DC load, maximum pulse width = 1.0 ms, maximum duty cycle = 20%.

f. Maximum pulse width = 1 µs, maximum duty cycle = 1%.

g. tPLH is defined as propagation delay from 50% of input voltage source, VSource to 50% of high level output VO.

h. tPHL is defined as propagation delay from 50% of input source voltage, VSource to 50% of low level output, VO.

i. Pulse Width Distortion (PWD) is defined as (tPHL – tPLH) of any given unit.

j. Dead Time Distortion (DTD) is defined as (tPLH – tPHL) between any two parts under the same test conditions.

k. Common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) in the high state is the maximum tolerable dVCM/dt of the common-mode pulse, VCM, to ensure that the output will remain in the high state (that is, Output > 13V). A 330-pF and a 10-kΩ pull-up resistor are needed in fault, UVLO, and TOK detection modes.

l. Common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) in the low state is the maximum tolerable dVCM/dt of the common-mode pulse, VCM, to ensure that the output will remain in a low state (that is, Output < 1.0V). A 330-pF and a 10-kΩ pull-up resistor are needed in fault, UVLO, and TOK detection modes.

m. When UVLO is not active (VCC2 – VE > VUVLO2_TH+), VO of the ACFH-3548T is allowed to go high, the short-circuit protection features sensed by DST and CS pins of the ACFH-3548T will be the primary source of IGBT protection. When VCC2 exceeds VUVLO2_TH+, DST and CS sense remains functional, until VCC2 crosses below VUVLO2_TH–. Thus, the DST/CS detection and UVLO features of the ACFH-3548T work in conjunction to ensure constant IGBT protection.

n. This is the “increasing” (that is, turn-on or “positive going” direction) of VCC2 – VE.

o. This is the “decreasing” (that is, turn-off or “negative going” direction) of VCC2 –VE.

p. The delay time when VCC2 exceeded VUVLO2_TH+ to 50% of /UVLO positive going edge.

q. The delay time when VCC2 exceeded VUVLO2_TH– to 50% of /UVLO negative going edge.

r. The delay time when VCC2 exceeded VUVLO2_TH+ to 50% of VO positive going edge (that is, VO turn-on).

s. The delay time when VCC2 exceeded VUVLO2_TH– to 50% of VO negative going edge (that is, VO turn-off).

t. See During IGBT Short Circuit Event for further details.

u. The amount of time from when DST/CS threshold is exceeded to /FAULT negative-going edge.

v. The amount of time when DST/CS threshold is exceeded, driver output VO is mute to LED input.

w. The amount of time when DST/CS mute time is expired, LED input must be kept Low for /FAULT status to return to High.

x. The TOUT output voltage is tested at TA = 25°C and TA = 125°C.

Thermal Resistance Model for ACFH-3548T

The diagram for measurement is shown in Figure 4. This is a multi-chip package with four heat sources, the effect of heating of one die due to the adjacent dice are considered by applying the theory of linear superposition. Here, one die is heated first, and the temperatures of all the dice are recorded after thermal equilibrium is reached. Then, the second die is heated, and all the dice temperatures are recorded and so on until the fourth die is heated. With the known ambient temperature, the die junction temperature, and power dissipation, the thermal resistance can be calculated. The thermal resistance calculation can be cast in matrix form. This yields a 4 by 4 matrix for this case of four heat sources.

Advance Short Circuit Protection and Isolated Analog Feedback for Temperature Sensing

The application and environmental design for the ACFH-3548T must ensure that the junction temperature of the internal ICs and LED within the gate driver optocoupler do not exceed 150°C. The following examples are based on a typical circuit shown in Figure 23 for estimation of maximum power dissipation and corresponding effect on junction temperatures. This thermal calculation can only be used as a reference for thermal comparison between actual application board layout and PCB board according to JESD51-7. The actual power dissipation achievable will depend on the application environment (PCB layout, air flow, part placement, and so on).

Calculation of Input IC Power Dissipation, P1

Input IC Power Dissipation (P1) = PI(Static) + PIH(PGD) + PIL(PGD)

where

PI(Static) – Static power dissipated by the input IC = VCC1(MAX) × ICC1(MAX)PIH(PGD) – High side switching power dissipation at PGD pin

= (VCC1(MAX) × QG_ExtMOS × fPWM_DCDC(MAX)) × ROH_PGD(MAX) / (ROH_PGD(MAX) + RG_PGD) / 2PIL(PGD) – Low side switching power dissipated at PGD pin

= (VCC1(MAX) × QG_ExtMOS × fPWM_DCDC(MAX)) × ROL_PGD(MAX) / (ROL_PGD(MAX) + RG_PGD) / 2QG_ExtMOS – Gate charge of external MOSFET connected to PGD pin at supply voltagefPWM_DCDC(MAX) – Maximum DC-DC switching frequencyROH_PGD(MAX) – Maximum high side PGD pin output impedance = 0.5V/50 mA = 10ΩROL_PGD(MAX) – Maximum low side PGD pin output impedance = 0.4V/50 mA = 8ΩRG_PGD – Gate resistance connected to PGD pin

Example:

PI(Static) = 5.5V × 9.8 mA = 53.9 mWPIH(PGD) = (5.5V × 5 nC × 152 kHz) × 10Ω / (10Ω + 20Ω) / 2 = 0.70 mWPIL(PGD) = (5.5V × 5 nC × 152 kHz) × 8Ω / (8Ω + 20Ω) / 2 = 0.60 mWP1 = 53.9 mW + 0.70 mW + 0.60 mW = 55.2 mW

Calculation of Input LED Power Dissipation, P2

Input LED Power Dissipation (P2) = IF(LED) (Recommended Max) × VF(LED) (at 125°C) × Duty Cycle

Example:

P2 = 16 mA × 1.25V × 50% = 10 mW

Calculation of Output IC Power Dissipation, P3

Output IC Power Dissipation (P3) = PO(Static) + POH + POL

where:

PO(Static) – Static power dissipated by the output IC = (VCC2 – VEE2) × ICC2(MAX)(VCC2 – VEE2) – Total output power supply = Regulated VCC2(MAX) + Vz (Vz can be 0V if negative supply is not used)POH – High side switching power dissipation at VO pin

= (VCC2 – VEE2) × QG × fPWM × ROH(MAX) / (ROH(MAX) + RGH) / 2POL – Low side switching power dissipation at VO pin

= (VCC2 – VEE2) × QG × fPWM × ROL(MAX) / (ROL(MAX) + RGL) / 2QG – External buffer gate charge at supply voltage fPWM – Input LED switching frequencyROH(MAX) – Maximum high side VO pin output impedance at IOH(MIN) = 4Ω

Example:

(VCC2 – VEE2) = 16.8V + 5.5V = 22.3VPO(Static) = 22.3V × 17.9 mA = 399.17 mWPOH = (22.3V × 200 nC × 10 kHz) × 4Ω / (4Ω + 20Ω) / 2 = 3.72 mWPOL = (22.3V × 200 nC × 10 kHz) × 4Ω / (4Ω + 20Ω) / 2 = 3.72 mWP3 = 399.17 mW + 3.72 mW + 3.72 mW = 406.61 mW

Calculation of LED2 Power Dissipation, P4

LED2 Power Dissipation (P4) = IF(LED2) (Design Max) × VF(LED2) (at 125°C) × Duty Cycle

Example:

P4 = 16mA × 1.25V × 50% = 10 mW

Calculation of Junction Temperature using High Effective Thermal Conductivity Board:

Input IC Junction Temperature = (37°C/W × P1 + 20.3°C/W × P2 + 15°C/W × P3 + 22.2°C/W × P4) + Ta Input LED Junction Temperature = (16.2°C/W × P1 + 119.2°C/W × P2 + 17.5°C/W × P3 + 19.5°C/W × P4) + Ta Output IC Junction Temperature = (15.1°C/W × P1 + 22.3°C/W × P2 + 30.4°C/W × P3 + 29.3°C/W × P4) + Ta LED2 Junction Temperature = (16.3°C/W × P1 + 18.9°C/W × P2 + 22.2°C/W × P3 + 91.5°C/W × P4) + Ta

Junction temperatures of the internal ICs and LEDs must not exceed 150°C.

Description of Operations and Functions

Operation of Integrated DC-DC Flyback Controller

The ACFH-3548T integrated DC-DC flyback controller operates in a discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at a fixed average switching frequency of 120 kHz. It converts a wide 6.5V to 24V input range to default 16V positive output supply (VCC2 – VE) when the VADJ pin is connected to ground of left open and programmable negative output voltage (VEE2 – VE) can be set by the Zener diode.

The primary control block implements direct duty cycle control logics for line and load regulation. Primary winding current is sensed and limited to VISEN_TH to prevent transformer short-circuit failure from damaging the primary switch. The sense resistor (Rsense) is selected based on the maximum primary winding current limit and maximum power dissipation requirement. Secondary output voltage, VCC2, is sensed and feedback to the primary control circuits. The closed loop control circuits always regulates VCC2 with reference to VE, based on the configurations set at the primary side of IC VADJ pin. The voltage ratio of VADJ over VCC1 determines (VCC2 – VE) voltage:

is defaulted at 0.4125 if the VADJ pin is left floating or tied to ground. VCC2 is approximated to the following:

Advance Short Circuit Protection and Isolated Analog Feedback for Temperature Sensing

The sum of the resistors used in the voltage divider for setting VADJ is to be less than 10 kΩ to avoid interference from the internal default voltage divider. The following table shows the typical resistor values for setting VCC2.

When VCC2 is greater than the specified VCC2 over-voltage threshold (VOV2_TH+), VCC2 over-voltage protection is triggered. The PGD pin on the primary side of gate driver is shut down to protect secondary over-voltage failure and the DC-DC flyback conversion will cease. When VCC2 reduces to VOV2_TH–, the PGD pin is released and DC-DC regulation resumes its normal operations.

While designing the flyback transformer for DCM controller, the maximum PWM duty cycle must be limited to 50% or less at the minimum input voltage (for example, VBAT+ = 6.5V) under full load conditions. A discrete flyback transformer should be connected to ACFH-3548T according to Figure 23 for complete isolated DC-DC converter. The input LED should be kept off while powering up the VCC1. To ensure proper operation of the DC-DC converter, fast VCC1 rise time (≤ 5 ms) is preferred for soft start function to control the inrush current. If VCC2 fails to rise above 6V at the end of the soft start period (about 20 ms), the primary switch is turned off to prevent a possible VCC2 short-circuit event during start-up. The DC-DC controller can be restarted by power reset VCC1.

The average PWM switching frequency of primary gate drive (PGD) is dithered ± 6% typically from center frequency of 120 kHz. Frequency dithering feature helps to achieve better EMI performance by spreading the switching and its harmonics over a wider band.

Soft Start Operation

ACFH-3548T is designed with built-in soft start feature. When VCC1 is higher than VCC1_TH+, the built-in soft start circuit starts to function. Typical soft start timing is 20 ms, where a typical soft start current profile steps up from 3 µA, then 6 µA, and finally 10 µA charges up the compensation network through the VCOMP pin and gradually increases the VCOMP voltage to the correct working level. Figure 25 shows the typical DC-DC start up waveforms.

NOTE:

VSAW is IC internal saw waveform and cannot be measured externally. VSAW frequency is not drawn to scale.

Typical DC-DC switching frequency at the PGD pin is 120 kHz. VPGD frequency is not drawn to scale.

Status Flags

The status flags at the input side reflect the state of the circuit operation. Figure 26 exemplifies how the status flags react when VCC2 ramps up and down when VCC1 is ready.

Normal operation: All of the status flags (/UVLO, /FAULT, and TOK) are in Hi-Z state. These pins are pulled high through the external resistors.

Under-voltage Fault: When VCC1 is below the VCC1 turn-on threshold (VCC1_TH+) or VCC2 falls below the UVLO2 threshold (VUVLO2_TH–), both of the /UVLO and TOK flags are pulled low.

VCC2 Over-voltage Fault: When VCC2 is over the VCC2 over-voltage protection threshold (VOV2_TH+), only the TOK flag is pulled low.

DC-DC Flyback Over-current Fault: When ISEN voltage exceeds the threshold VISEN_TH, the /UVLO flag is pulled low. It is reset to high upon next PGD switching cycle. If the DC-DC over-current fault persists, the /UVLO pulses at the PGD PWM frequency. In the case that /UVLO has a large filter capacitor, the short upward /UVLO pulses are filtered, resulting in a persistent low /UVLO for the affected PGD PWM cycles. See Figure 27.

IGBT Short-circuit Fault: If a short-circuit fault occurs by triggering at DST pin or CS pin, the IGBT gate is turned off adaptively according to the voltage sensed at the DST pin and the CS pin. The /FAULT flag is pulled low.

LED2 Fault: When VCC2 – VEE2 supply voltage is greater than typical 6V, the secondary side LED2 starts to pulse to inform the primary IC that the feedback channel is working normally. If the primary IC detects no signal from LED2, it is presumed that LED2 is faulty and all the status flags (/UVLO, /FAULT, and TOK) are pulled low. The primary IC stops the DC-DC regulation by pulling the PGD pin and the COMP pin low. The driver IC’s power (VCC1) then needs to be recycled for IC reset. Figure 28 shows a typical gate driver circuit with low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) for primary IC (VCC1) reboot during LED2 fault condition.

TOUT Invalid: The TOUT reading is invalid with the indicator TOK pulled low, during UVLO fault, VCC2 over-voltage fault and IGBT short-circuit fault.

Description of Gate Driver and Miller Clamping

The gate driver is directly controlled by the LED current. When the LED current is driven high, the main output driver (VO) of the ACFH-3548T delivers 1.5A sourcing current to output buffer to drive the IGBT’s gate. While LED is switched off, it provides 1.5A sinking current to the output buffer to switch the gate off fast.

When UVLO is not active (VCC2 – VE > VUVLO2_TH+), VO of the ACFH-3548T is allowed to go high. IGBT desaturation fault detection (by the DST pin) and over-current detection (by the CS pin) of the ACFH-3548T is the primary source of IGBT protection. When VCC2 exceeds the VUVLO2_TH+ threshold, DST and CS detections remain functional, until VCC2 crosses below the VUVLO2_TH– threshold. Thus, the DST/CS detection and UVLO features of the ACFH-3548T work in conjunction to ensure constant IGBT protection.

The Miller clamping transistor (MC pin) and all pull-down drivers are activated when the gate voltage drops below VMC_TH voltage, to provide low impedance path to the Miller current.

Description of Under Voltage Lock Out

Insufficient gate voltage to IGBT can increase turn-on resistance of IGBT, resulting in large power loss and IGBT damage due to high heat dissipation. The ACFH-3548T monitors the output power supply constantly. When the output power supply is lower than under voltage lockout (UVLO) threshold, the gate driver output shuts off to protect IGBT from low voltage bias. During power up, the UVLO feature forces the ACFH-3548T’s output low to prevent unwanted turn-on at low voltage. When power supply (VCC2) voltage increases more than VUVLO2_TH+ threshold, the /UVLO fault status is cleared and the gate driver resumes its normal function automatically.

Description of IGBT Short-circuit Protection and Shutdown Sequence

1. ACFH-3548T monitors the DST pin and the CS pin for IGBT short-circuit conditions.

2. Short-circuit detection on the DST pin and the CS pin is only active when the voltage at the TB pin is greater than the VTB_TH threshold. This corresponds to the period when the IGBT is in conduction mode.

3. Short-circuit protection is triggered in either of the following situations.

– Voltage on the DST terminal exceeds VDST_TH threshold.

– Voltage on the CS terminal exceeds the VCS_TH threshold.

4. Shutdown is triggered by LED input turning-off or short-circuit events. ACFH-3548T executes an adaptive shutdown for any shutdown operation.

a. CS information is latched into memory cells at the start of every shutdown sequence.

b. DST is first checked to find out whether IGBT is in desaturation short condition. If VDST > VDST_TH, the SSD driver is selected to softly shut down the IGBT gate throughout the shutdown process (IGBT arm short circuit, Figure 30).

c. If VDST < VDST_TH, main driver VO is first used to minimize Miller plateau time. As the IGBT collector voltage rises, DST will rise above VDST_TH, which also means that Miller plateau is coming to its end. Then the next most appropriate driver is selected based on the latched CS information VCS.

d. If VCS > VCS_TH, the SSD driver is selected for slow soft shutdown (IGBT wire short circuit, Figure 31). If VCS < VCS_TH, the main driver VO continues to be used for a quick normal shutdown (normal operation, Figure 32).

5. In a short-circuit event, /FAULT status is always reported to MCU (see Figure 33).

6. ACFH-3548T starts an adaptive shutdown.

7. /FAULT output goes low, notifying the microcontroller of the short-circuit fault condition.

8. PWM commands at input LED will be ignored during mute time tSC(MUTE).

9. When tSC(MUTE) expires, LED input must be kept low for tSC(RESET) duration before the fault condition can be cleared.

10. After the fault condition is cleared, /FAULT flag will then return to high, and output starts to respond to LED input.

Description of Blanking Time Control

ACFH-3548T monitors the DST pin and the CS pin for short-circuit conditions when the input LED is turned on. However, during operations, the initial states of the DST and CS pins when the LED turns on may trigger a false short-circuit alarm. It is necessary to ignore DST and CS pins for the initial “blanking time” period when the IGBT gate voltage is still around its Miller plateau.

By comparing IGBT gate voltage, VG, with the internal reference VTB_TH of the TB pin, the end of the turn-on Miller plateau can be determined. Blanking time is only released when the gate voltage, VG, presented at TB pin is higher than VTB_TH.

A simple circuit shown in Figure 34 is used to tune the effective VG threshold lower to release blanking time more quickly. The effective VG threshold with VO adjusted is as follows.

R2 and CTB provide low-pass filtering of the spikes at VG.

For example, if VCC2 is 16V and VTB_TH is 13V, setting R1 = 1.8 kΩ and R2 = 1 kΩ sets the effective VG threshold to 11.3V. VG_TH should be larger than the Miller plateau gate voltage Vmiller that corresponds to the designed IGBT short-circuit protection current Ishort.

Figure 34: Simple Circuit for Blanking Time Control

Description of Temperature Sensor

1. TIN takes input of the voltage across temperature sensor diodes to sense temperature information.

2. Enabled by superior optical coupling and advanced sigma-delta (S-D) modulation technology, TIN voltage is transmitted over to TOUT pin on the primary side, with low offset and high gain accuracy.

3. High accuracy unity gain between TOUT and TIN is maintained for nominal temperature range.

4. No temperature information is transmitted during UVLO or short-circuit fault condition. The TOUT pin is pulled low for all fault conditions. The TOK flag is set to low as an indicator that TOUT reading is no longer valid during the fault conditions. See Table 3 for status flags information.

The input TREF is used to match the negative temperature coefficient of the temperature sensor diodes to the positive temperature coefficient of the IGBT emitter sense voltage, VSE.

The output of the temperature compensation block in Figure 1 gives the reference voltage, VCS_TH, for the comparator at the CS pin, providing the threshold for short-circuit detection.

Printed Circuit Board Layout Considerations

Take care when designing the layout of printed circuit board (PCB) for optimum performance. Maintain adequate spacing between the high-voltage isolated circuitry and any input-referenced circuitry. Maintain the same minimum spacing between two adjacent high-side isolated regions of the printed circuit board as well. Insufficient spacing reduces the effective isolation and increases parasitic coupling that will affect CMR performance.

The placement and routing of supply bypass capacitors require special attention. During switching transients, the majority of the gate charge is supplied by the bypass capacitors. Maintaining short charging and discharging paths between capacitors and gate can help to achieve clean switching waveforms and low supply ripples. Have supply and ground planes for VCC2 and VEE2. Connect IC power pins, such as VCC2 (pin 22) and VEE2 (pins 17, 31, and 32) directly to these planes using multiple via holes right next to the pins. Figure 36 shows a good example of PCB layout arrangement in comparison with a bad one.

Figure 36: Good and Bad PCB Layout Example

Similar layout guidelines are applicable to input side circuitry, such as power supply VCC1 (pin 5), input side ground VEE1 (pin 4), and supply decoupling capacitors. Place the compensation network circuitry that connected to COMP (pin 7) next to IC with short traces. For thermal dissipation purposes, place the large copper area for top layer VEE2 (pins 17, 31, and 32) and connect the copper area with multiple via holes to VEE2 plane at the bottom layer of PCB as shown in Figure 37.
