The T2 to T3 time interval is dependent upon the value of
C
up time of the OUT1 and OUT3 voltages. If selecting a
different capacitor then recommended in the circuit application
literature, consider the effects the different value will have on
the ramp-up time and inrush currents of the OUT1 and OUT3
outputs.
Fault Protection
All four outputs are monitored and protected against extreme
overload. The chip’s response to an output overload is
selective, depending on the faulting output.
An over-voltage on V
1, 2, and 3, and latches the IC off. An under-voltage on
V
on output 1, or an under-voltage event on output 2 or 3,
increments the respective fault counters and triggers a
shutdown of outputs 1, 2, and 3, followed by a soft-start re-
start. After three consecutive fault events on either counter,
the chip is latched off. Removal of bias power resets both the
fault latch and the counters. Both counters are also reset by
a successful start-up of all the outputs.
Figure 7 shows a simplified schematic of the fault logic. The
over-current latches are set dependent upon the states of
the over-current (OC1), output 2 and 3 under-voltage (UV2,
UV3) and the soft-start signals (SS13, SS24). Window
comparators monitor the SS pins and indicate when the

signals). An under-voltage on either linear output (VSEN2,
VSEN3, or VSEN4) is ignored until the respective UP signal
goes high. This allows V
without fault at start-up. Following an over-current event
(OC1, UV2, or UV3 event), bringing the SS24 pin below 0.8V
resets the over-current latch and generates a soft-started
ramp-up of the outputs 1, 2, and 3.
OUT1 Over-Voltage Protection
During operation, a short across the PWM upper MOSFET
(Q1) causes V
the over-voltage threshold of 120% of DACOUT, the over-
voltage comparator trips to set the fault latch and turns the
lower MOSFET (Q2) on as needed to regulate the output
voltage to the 120% threshold. This operation typically
results in the blow of the input fuse, subsequent discharge of
V
A separate over-voltage circuit provides protection during
the initial application of power. For voltages on the VCC pin
below the power-on reset (and above ~4V), the output level
is monitored for voltages above 1.3V. Should VSEN1 exceed
this level, the lower MOSFET, Q2, is driven on.
Over-Current Protection
All outputs are protected against excessive over-currents.
The PWM controller uses the upper MOSFET’s on-
resistance, r
against a shorted output. All linear regulators monitor their
respective VSEN pins for under-voltage to protect against
excessive currents.

overload on OUT1. The overload is applied at T0 and the
