Non-dissipative overcurrent detection and protection
The L6230 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 external current sense resistor normally used and its
associated power dissipation are eliminated.
overcurrent detection circuit.
To implement the over current detection, a sensing element that delivers a small but precise
fraction of the output 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 current I
output current reaches the detection threshold (typically I
comparator signals a fault condition. When a fault condition is detected, an internal open
drain MOS with a pull down capability of 4 mA connected to pin DIAG is turned on.
The pin DIAG-EN can be used to signal the fault condition to a μC and to shut down the
three-phase bridge simply by connecting the pin to an external R-C (see R
