Key System Specifications

Table 1-1 TIDA-010956 Specifications
PARAMETERVALUE (TYPICAL)COMMENT
DC input voltage24V to 60VAbsolute maximum 80V DC.
Output phase current85ARMSContinuous current. A heat sink is possibly needed and airflow for the FETs is important.
In-phase current sense range±165A (Phase A and B)Phase A and B scaled to 0V to 3.3V range, inverted, with a 1.65V bias
±167A (Phase C) Phase C scaled to ±50mV range
In-phase current sense shunt0.2mΩ (Phase A and B)Phase A and B use two pieces of differential, non-isolated amplifier INA241A3, with enhanced pulse-width modulation (PWM) rejection
0.3mΩ (Phase C) Phase C uses a functional isolated delta-sigma modulator AMC0106M05
PWM switching frequency16kHzUp to 40kHz
PWM dead timeUser definedDefault 370ns with the hardware RDT setting
Temperature range–40°C to 85°CPossibly need a proper heat sink and airflow for thermal dissipation of the FETs
ProtectionsShort-circuit protectionWith the default RVDSLVL setting. See also Table 2-1
Shoot-through protectionAutomatic dead-time insertion handshake
Temperature protectionTemperature sensor mounted on PCB to indicate overtemperature
UVLOIntegrated at 4.8V
PCB temperature sense range and accuracy–40°C to 150°CUsing a TMP6131, ±1%, 10kΩ linear thermistor
Controller interface signals3.3V I/O for PWM, I-V sensing, PWM buffer and gate driver enables, faultTI BoosterPack™ Plug-in Module compatible; supporting 3.3V signal levels. See pin assignments in Section 3.1.2.
Indicator LEDsPower rails and user-defined3.3V, 12V, VIN input and one for user software control.
