Overview of the Fault/Protection Schemes

A summary of the TPS61193 fault detection behavior is shown in Table 7-3. Detected faults (excluding LED open or short) cause device to enter FAULT_RECOVERY state. In FAULT_RECOVERY the DC-DC and LED current sinks of the device are disabled, and the FAULT pin is pulled low. The device recovers automatically and enters normal operating mode (ACTIVE) after a recovery time of 100 ms if the fault condition has disappeared. When recovery is succesful, FAULT pin is released.

If a LED fault is detected, the device continues normal operation and only the faulty string is disabled. The fault is indicated via the FAULT pin which can be released by toggling VDDIO/EN pin low for a short period of 2 µs to 20 µs. LEDs are turned off for this period but the device stays in ACTIVE mode. If VDDIO/EN is low longer, the device goes to STANDBY and restarts when EN goes high again.

VIN overvoltage protectionVIN_OVP1. VIN > 42 V
2. VOUT > VSET_DCDC + 6..10 V.
VSET_DCDC is voltage value defined by logic during adaptation
YesYes1. Overvoltage is monitored from the beginning of soft start. Fault is detected if the duration of overvoltage condition is 100-µs minimum.
2. Overvoltage is monitored from the beginning of normal operation (ACTIVE mode). Fault is detected if over-voltage condition duration is 560-ms minimum (tfilter). After the first fault, detection filter time is reduced to 50 ms for following recovery cycles. When the device recovers and has been in ACTIVE mode for 160 ms, filter time is increased back to 560 ms.
VIN undervoltage lockoutVIN_UVLOFalling 3.9 V
Rising 4 V
YesYesDetects undervoltage condition at VIN pin. Sensed in all operating modes. Fault is detected if undervoltage condition duration is 100-µs minimum.
Open LED faultOPEN_LEDLOW_COMP thresholdYesNoDetected if the voltage of one or more current sinks is below threshold level, and DC-DC adaptive control has reached maximum voltage. Open string is removed from the DC-DC voltage control loop and current sink is disabled.
Fault pin is released by toggling VDDIO/EN pin. If VDDIO/EN is low for a period of 2 µs to 20 µs, LEDs are turned off for this period but device stays ACTIVE. If VDDIO/EN is low longer, device goes to STANDBY and restarts when EN goes high again.
Shorted LED faultSHORT_LEDShorted string detection level 6 VYesNoDetected if the voltage of one or more current sinks is above shorted string detection level and at least one OUTx voltage is within headroom window. Shorted string is removed from the DC-DC voltage control loop and current sink is disabled.
Fault pin is released by toggling VDDIO/EN pin. If VDDIO/EN is low for a period of 2…20 µs, LEDs are turned off for this period but device stays ACTIVE. If VDDIO/EN is low longer, device goes to STANDBY and restarts when EN goes high again.
Thermal protectionTSD165°C
Thermal shutdown hysteresis 20°C
YesYesThermal shutdown is monitored from the beginning of soft start. Die temperature must decrease by 20°C for device to recover.
