Overcurrent Fault Operation
The primary concern with high-speed fault detection is that noise
may cause false tripping. Various applications have or need to
be able to ignore certain faults that are due to switching noise
or other parasitic phenomena, which are application dependant.
The problem with simply trying to filter out this noise up front is
that in high-speed applications, with asymmetric noise, the act of
filtering introduces an error into the measurement. To get around
this issue, and allow the user to prevent the fault signal from
being latched by noise, a circuit was designed to slew the ¯ F ¯ ¯ A ¯ ¯ U ¯ ¯ L ¯ ¯ T ¯
pin voltage based on the value of the capacitor from that pin to
ground. Once the voltage on the pin falls below 2 V, as estab-
lished by an internal reference, the fault output is latched and
pulled to ground quickly with an internal N-channel MOSFET.
Fault Walk-through
The following walk-through references various sections and
attributes in the figure below. This figure shows different
fault set/reset scenarios and how they relate to the voltages on
the ¯ F ¯ ¯ A ¯ ¯ U ¯ ¯ L ¯ ¯ T ¯ pin, FAULT_EN pin, and the internal Overcurrent
(OC) Fault node, which is invisible to the customer.

mum period of time, the Fault Enable Delay, t
and there is an OC fault condition, the device ¯ F ¯ ¯ A ¯ ¯ U ¯ ¯ L ¯ ¯ T ¯ pin starts
discharging.

fault is latched, and an internal NMOS device pulls the ¯ F ¯ ¯ A ¯ ¯ U ¯ ¯ L ¯ ¯ T ¯
pin voltage to approximately 0 V. The rate at which the ¯ F ¯ ¯ A ¯ ¯ U ¯ ¯ L ¯ ¯ T ¯
pin slews downward (see [4] in the figure) is dependent on the
