High-Side Switch for Controlling Secondary-Side Supply Voltage of Gate Driver

The TPS27S100x is a single-channel, fully-protected, high-side switch with an integrated NMOS and charge pump. An external adjustable current limit improves the reliability of the whole system by clamping the inrush or overload current. Figure 2-12 shows the schematic design of the TPS27S100.

The device power supply is 24-V which is assumed to be protected against fault and remains within ±20% tolerance. Pin 3 Enable the control for channel activation by signal STO2_EN.

Equation 6 calculates the value of resistor R4, which is required to keep the 1-A nominal current in the 0- to 3.3-V current-sense range. To achieve better current-sense accuracy, a 1% tolerance or better resistor is preferred.

Equation 6. GUID-42F50C89-F9B9-4B73-932A-4AD2DC3DC6B6-low.gif

The value of resistor R4 is selected as 1.65 K. The current-sense (CS) pin is connected to the ADC input of the diagnostic MCU (SIL 1) with a low-pass filter (R3 and C6).

To set the adjustable current limit value at 1 A, calculate R7 using Equation 7.

Equation 7. GUID-C3618392-0E2E-4619-A675-9349887CA5A7-low.gif

The value of resistor R7 is selected as 2.55 kΩ.

The enable pin is permanently connected to 3.3 V to enable continuous diagnostic monitoring and also send back to the diagnostic MCU (SIL 1).
