8.3.7.2 Thermal Management During Bulb Inrush

For high wattage bulb loads or at cold temperature startup or high VBB voltage, with high inrush current demand, the device employs sophisticated thermal protection mechanisms:

  • Relative Thermal Shutdown

    During high-inrush events, toggling of the switch output can be observed due to the FET heating up rapidly. When this occurs, the device enters a relative thermal shutdown (TJ,FET - TJ,CONTROLLER > TREL ) state and auto-recovers from this event within tRETRY_INT. This rapid recovery allows the bulb to continue charging while preventing excessive thermal stress on the device.

  • Absolute Thermal Shutdown

    If the junction temperature continues to rise despite relative thermal protection, an absolute thermal shutdown event occurs when the FET temperature exceeds TABS . In this case, the switch turns off to protect the device and auto-recovers from this event within tRETRY_EXT once the temperature decreases sufficiently, resuming bulb charging.

Figure 8-36 shows the 35W bulb (at cold condition) charging behavior of the device in non-thermal regulated current limit mode, set by grounding the ILIM pin. The device engages in relative thermal shutdown protection and turns on the bulb after few cycles.
