ADM1073
CURRENT FAULTS
Some timing waveforms associated with overcurrent faults are
shown in the following figures. Figure 43 shows how a perma-
nent current fault is dealt with after startup. SPLYGD going low
indicates when the supply voltage is good. Because the output is
shorted, the sense voltage immediately rises through the 90 mV
circuit breaker threshold, and the fault timer is started. The
linear current control loop then goes into regulation at V
100 mV, accurately limiting the load current at the preset level.
The limited consecutive retry scheme PWMs the GATE pin
seven times. When the seventh retry occurs, the permanent
fault is deemed permanent and the part latches off. The
LATCHED output asserts at this time. Power must now be
cycled to restart the device. This can be achieved via a manual
card reseating event (which cycles the power) or with an
external RESTART or SHDN signal.
Note that the LATCHED output can also be tied back to the
RESTART input, giving an infinite retry during current fault
with a 5-second cool-down period after every seven retries. The
waveforms for this event are similar to those in Figure 43, but
repeats every five seconds.
Figure 44 shows the behavior of ADM1073 when a temporary
current fault occurs followed by a permanent current fault.
When the first overcurrent fault occurs, the first 97.5 mV spike
on the SENSE line can be seen. The ADM1073 retries a number
of times, and during the fifth t
itself. After this time period, a no-fault condition is detected
and the limited consecutive counter is reset. GATE is reasserted.

When the overcurrent fault returns permanently, the limited
consecutive retry counter detects seven consecutive faults and
the part latches off. In this way, the ADM1073 prevents
nuisance shutdowns caused by transient shorts of a
programmable duration (typically ~0.6 s, set via TIMER, as
follows), but provides latched shutdown protection from
permanently shorted loads.
Figure 45 shows the behavior of the TIMER pin during a retry
cycle. Different current sources are switched in during the
on-time (TIMER ramping up) and off-times (TIMER ramping
down). This can be seen in the varying ramp-up and ramp-
down rates of TIMER below. The default ratio of t
6%. This ratio can be reduced with a resistor from TIMER to
V
retry period can be extended or reduced by changing the value
of the TIMER capacitor.
