PINTYPE(1)DESCRIPTION
NAME

TPS48160-Q1

TPS48161-Q1

EN/UVLO

1

1

I

EN/UVLO input.

A voltage on this pin above V(UVLOR) 1.21V enables normal operation. If EN/UVLO is below V(UVLOF) then GATE drives are turned OFF.

Forcing this pin below V(ENF) 0.3V shuts down the device reducing quiescent current to approximately 1µA (typ). Optionally connect to the input supply through a resistive divider to set the undervoltage lockout.

When EN/UVLO is left floating an internal pull down of 100nA pulls EN/UVLO low and keeps the device in OFF state.

INP_G

2

2

I

Input signal for external FET control by G.

CMOS compatible input reference to GND that sets the state of G pin.

INP_G has an internal weak pull down of 100nA to GND to keep G pulled to SRC when INP_G is left floating.

INP

3

3

I

Input signal for external FET control by GATE.

CMOS compatible input reference to GND that sets the state of GATE pin.

INP has an internal weak pull down of 100nA to GND to keep GATE pulled to SRC when INP is left floating.

I_DIR

4

4

O

Open drain I_DIR output.

This pin is asserted low by device when current through CS1+ and CS1– flows in reverse direction.

OV

5

5

I

Adjustable overvoltage threshold input.

Connect a resistor ladder from input supply, OV to GND. When the voltage at OV exceeds the overvoltage cut-off threshold then the GATE and G are pulled down to SRC turning OFF the external FETs. When the voltage at OV goes below OV falling threshold then GATE or G gets pulled up to BST, turning ON the external FET.

OV must be connected to GND when not used. When OV is left floating an internal pull down of 100nA pulls OV low and keeps GATE or G pulled up to BST.

FLT

6

6

O

Open drain fault output.

FLT goes low during charge pump UVLO, Main or pre-charge FET SCP, I2t timer trigger, OV.

This pin asserts low after the voltage on the I2t pin has reached the fault threshold of 2V. This pin indicates the main FET is about to turn off due to an overload condition. This pin asserts low along with GATE turn off during short-circuit.

The FLT pin does not go to a high impedance state until the overcurrent condition and the auto-retry time expire.

TMR

7

7

I

Auto-retry or latch timer input after overcurrent fault.

A capacitor across TMR pin to GND sets the times for retry periods. Leave it open for fastest setting.

Connect resistor across CTMR from TMR pin to GND for latch-off functionality.

GND

8

8

G

Connect GND to system ground.

IMON

9

9

O

Analog bi-directional current monitor output.

This pin sources a scaled down ratio of current through the external current sense resistor RSNS. A resistor from this pin to GND converts current proportional to voltage.

If unused, leave floating or can be connected to ground.

ITMPO

10

10

O

Analog temperature output.

Analog voltage feedback provides a voltage proportional to thermistor temperature.

If unused, leave floating.

IOC

11

—

I

Overcurrent detection setting.

A resistor across IOC to GND sets the over current comparator threshold. IOC pin can also be driven externally using MCU.

I2t

12

O

I2t timer input.

A capacitor across I2t pin to GND sets the times for overcurrent (tOC).

13

O

Gate of external bypass FET.

100µA peak source and 0.39A sink capacity.

Connect to the gate of the external bypass FET.

BST

14

14

O

High-side bootstrapped supply.

An external capacitor with a minimum value of 0.1µF should be connected between this pin and SRC. Voltage swing on this pin is 12V to (VIN + 12V).

SRC

15

15

O

Source connection of the external FET.

GATE

16

16

O

High current gate driver pull-up and pull-down.

0.5A peak source and 2A sink capacity.

This pin pulls GATE up to BST and down to SRC. For the fastest tun-on and turn-off, tie this pin directly to the gate of the external high side MOSFET in main path.

TMP

18

18

I

Temperature input.

Analog connection to external NTC thermistor

Connect TMP pin directly to VS if this feature is not used

CS1–

19

19

I

Main path current sense negative input.

Connect a resistor (RSETR) across CS1– to the external current sense resistor to set IMON gain in reverse direction.

CS1+

20

20

I

Main path current sense positive input.

Connect a resistor (RSETF) across CS1+ to the external current sense resistor to set IMON gain in forward direction.

Connect CS1+ and CS1– to VBATT if main FET current sensing is not used.

ISCP

21

21

I

Short-circuit detection threshold setting.

Connect ISCP to DRN if short-circuit protection is not desired.

VS

Supply pin of the controller.

CS2–

23

23

I

Bypass path current sense negative input.

DRN
