NON-DISSIPATIVE OVERCURRENT DETECTION and PROTECTION
The L6235 integrates an Overcurrent Detection Circuit (OCD) for full protection. This circuit provides Output-to-
Output and Output-to-Ground short circuit protection as well. With this internal over current detection, the exter-
nal current sense resistor normally used and its associated power dissipation are eliminated. Figure 17 shows
a simplified schematic for the overcurrent detection circuit.
To implement the over current detection, a sensing element that delivers a small but precise fraction of the out-
put current is implemented with each High Side power MOS. Since this current is a small fraction of the output
current there is very little additional power dissipation. This current is compared with an internal reference cur-
rent I
ator signals a fault condition. When a fault condition is detected, an internal open drain MOS with a pull down
capability of 4mA connected to pin DIAG is turned on.
The pin DIAG can be used to signal the fault condition to a C or to shut down the Three-Phase Bridge simply
by connecting it to pin EN and adding an external R-C (see R

Figure 18 shows the Overcurrent Detetection operation. The Disable Time t
operation can be easily programmed by means of the accurate thresholds of the logic inputs. It is affected
