7.4.2.2.3 High-side Driver Overcurrent Protection

Overcurrent protection is available when ITRIP regulation is disabled. The output current for all drivers (OUT7-OUT12) is monitored, and after the blank time if current exceed the overcurrent threshold after for deglitch time, the output is disabled.

Disable ITRIP for OUT7 by configuring OUT7_ITRIP_EN = 0b in HS_REG_CNFG1 and for OUT8-12 by configuring HS_OUTx_ITRIP_EN = 0b in HS_REG_CNFG3 register. Overcurrent thresholds are configured (high or low) by setting OUT7_RDSON_MODE bit for OUT7 and OUTx_OC_TH bits for OUT8-12 in HS_OC_CNFG register.

Blank time for overcurrent protection is 40μs for all high-side driver outputs. Blank time starts when OUTx is enabled. OUT7 has dedicated deglitch time settings, configurable via bits OUT7_ITRIP_DG in the HS_REG_CNFG1 register. For OUT8-12 deglitch time settings are shared, configurable via bits HS_OUT_ITRIP_DG in the HS_REG_CNFG3 register. For VPVDD < 20V, all deglitch options (24, 32, 40, and 48μs) are available. For VPVDD > 20V the deglitch time is automatically reduced to 10μs. When overcurrent detection is detected, OUT7_ITRIP_STAT bit in EC_HEAT_ITRIP_STAT register for OUT7 driver or OUTx_ITRIP_STAT bit in HS_ITRIP_STAT register for OUT8-12 drivers is latched and the corresponding output is shutoff. The fault bit remains set until the CLR_FLT bit is asserted.
