8.3.11.3 Overcurrent Protection (OCP)

A MOSFET overcurrent event is sensed by monitoring the current flowing through FETs. If the current through a FET exceeds the IOCP threshold for longer than the tOCP deglitch time, a OCP event is recognized and action is done according to the OCP_MODE bit. In order to avoid false trigger of OCP during PWM transition due to ringing in phase voltage, there is tBLANK blanking time applied at each edge of PWM signals in digital. During blanking time, OCP events are ignored.

On hardware device variants, the IOCP threshold is 5A or 9A (typ) based on MODE pin, the tOCP_DEG is fixed at 1-µs, tBLANK is fixed at 0.2-µs and the OCP_MODE bit is configured with fast retry with 5-ms automatic retry. On SPI devices, the IOCP threshold is set through the OCP_LVL, the tOCP_DEG is set through the OCP_DEG, the tBLANK is set through the OCP_TBLANK and the OCP_MODE bit can operate in four different modes: OCP latched shutdown, OCP automatic retry with fast and slow retry times, OCP report only, and OCP disabled.
