MIC5021 Micrel, Inc. MIC5021 High-Speed High-Side MOSFET Driver General Description Features The MIC5021 high-side MOSFET driver is designed to operate at frequencies up to 100kHz (5kHz PWM for 2% to 100% duty cycle) and is an ideal choice for high speed applications such as motor control, SMPS (switch mode power supplies), and applications using IGBTs. The MIC5021 can also operate as a circuit breaker with or without automatic retry. A rising or falling edge on the input results in a current source pulse or sink pulse on the gate output. This output current pulse can turn on a 2000pF MOSFET in approximately 550ns. The MIC5021 then supplies a limited current (< 2mA), if necessary, to maintain the output state. An overcurrent comparator with a trip voltage of 50mV makes the MIC5021 ideal for use with a current sensing MOSFET. An external low value resistor may be used instead of a sensing MOSFET for more precise overcurrent control. An optional external capacitor placed from the CT pin to ground may be used to control the current shutdown duty cycle (dead time) from 20% to < 1%. A duty cycle from 20% to about 75% is possible with an optional pull-up resistor from CT to VDD. The MIC5021 is available in 8-pin SOIC and plastic DIP packages. Other members of the MIC502x family include the MIC5020 low-side driver and the MIC5022 half-bridge driver with a cross-conduction interlock. • • • • • • • 12V to 36V operation 550ns rise/fall time driving 2000pF TTL compatible input with internal pull-down resistor Overcurrent limit Gate to source protection Internal charge pump 100kHz operation guaranteed over full temperature and operating voltage range • Compatible with current sensing MOSFETs • Current source drive reduces EMI Applications • • • • • • Lamp control Heater control Motor control Solenoid switching Switch-mode power supplies Circuit breaker Ordering Information Part Number Standard Pb-Free Temperature Range Package MIC5021BM MIC5021YM –40ºC to +85ºC 8-pin SOIC MIC5021BN MIC5021YN –40ºC to +85ºC 8-pin Plastic DIP Typical Application +12V to +36V 10µF TTL Input 1 2 3 optional* 4 MIC5021 V DD Input V B OOS T Gate CT Sense- Gnd Sense+ 8 7 N-Channel Power MOSFET 6 2.7 nF 5 RS E N S E RS E N S E Load = 50mV ITR IP * increases time before retry High-Side Driver with Overcurrent Trip and Retry Micrel, Inc. • 2180 Fortune Drive • San Jose, CA 95131 • USA • tel + 1 (408) 944-0800 • fax + 1 (408) 474-1000 • http://www.micrel.com July 2005 1 MIC5021 MIC5021 Micrel, Inc.

Functional Description An internal zener diode protects the external MOSFET by limiting the gate to source voltage. Sense Inputs The MIC5021’s 50mV (nominal) trip voltage is created by internal current sources that force approximately 5µA out of SENSE + and approximately 15µA (at trip) out of SENSE –. When SENSE – is 50mV or more below SENSE +, SENSE – steals base current from an internal drive transistor shutting off the external MOSFET. Overcurrent Limiting Current source I1 charges CINT upon power up. An optional external capacitor connected to CT is kept discharged through a MOSFET Q1. A fault condition (> 50mV from SENSE + to SENSE –) causes the overcurrent comparator to enable current sink 2I1 which overcomes current source I1 to discharge CINT in a short time. When CINT is discharged, the INPUT is disabled, which turns off the gate output, and CINT and CT are ready to be charged. When the gate output turns the MOSFET off, the overcurrent signal is removed from the sense inputs which deactivates current sink 2I1. This allows CINT and the optional capacitor connected to CT to recharge. A Schmitt trigger delays the retry while the capacitor(s) recharge. Retry delay is increased by connecting a capacitor to CT (optional). The retry cycle will continue until the fault is removed or the input is changed to TTL low. If CT is connected to ground, the circuit will not retry upon a Refer to the MIC5021 block diagram. Input A signal greater than 1.4V (nominal) applied to the MIC5021 INPUT causes gate enhancement on an external MOSFET turning the MOSFET on. An internal pull-down resistor insures that an open INPUT remains low, keeping the external MOSFET turned off. Gate Output Rapid rise and fall times on the GATE output are possible because each input state change triggers a one-shot which activates a high-value current sink (10I2) for a short time. This draws a high current though a current mirror circuit causing the output transistors to quickly charge or discharge the external MOSFET’s gate. A second current sink continuously draws the lower value of current used to maintain the gate voltage for the selected state. An internal charge pump utilizes an external “boost” capacitor connected between VBOOST and the source of the external MOSFET. (Refer to typical application.) The boost capacitor stores charge when the MOSFET is off. As the MOSFET turns on, its source to ground voltage increases and is added to the voltage across the capacitor, raising the VBOOST pin voltage. The boost capacitor charge is directed through the GATE pin to quickly charge the MOSFET’s gate to 16V maximum above VDD. The internal charge pump maintains the gate voltage. Applications Information Supply Voltage The MIC5021’s supply input (VDD) is rated up to 36V. The supply voltage must be equal to or greater than the voltage applied to the drain of the external N-channel MOSFET. A 16V minimum supply is recommended to produce continuous on-state, gate drive voltage for standard MOSFETs (10V nominal gate enhancement). When the driver is powered from a 12V to 16V supply, a logic-level MOSFET is recommended (5V nominal gate enhancement). PWM operation may produce satisfactory gate enhancement at lower supply voltages. This occurs when fast switching repetition makes the boost capacitor a more significant voltage supply than the internal charge pump. The MIC5021 MOSFET driver is intended for high-side switching applications where overcurrent limiting and high speed are required. The MIC5021 can control MOSFETs that switch voltages up to 36V. High-Side Switch Circuit Advantages High-side switching allows more of the load related components and wiring to remain near ground potential when compared to low-side switching. This reduces the chances of short-to-ground accidents or failures. Speed Advantage The MIC5021 is about two orders of magnitude faster than the low cost MIC5014 making it suitable for high-frequency high-efficiency circuit operation in PWM (pulse width modulation) designs used for motor control, SMPS (switch mode power supply) and heating element control. Switched loads (on/off) benefit from the MIC5021’s fast switching times by allowing use of MOSFETs with smaller safe operating areas. (Larger MOSFETs are often required when using slower drivers.) July 2005 5 MIC5021 MIC5021 Micrel, Inc. Logic-Level MOSFET Precautions Logic-level MOSFETs have lower maximum gate-to-source voltage ratings (typically ±10V) than standard MOSFETs (typically ±20V). When an external MOSFET is turned on, the doubling effect of the boost capacitor can cause the gate-to-source voltage to momentarily exceed 10V. Internal zener diodes clamp this voltage to 16V maximum which is too high for logic-level MOSFETs. To protect logic-level MOSFETs, connect a zener diode (5V≤VZener<10V) from gate to source. Overcurrent Limiting A 50mV comparator is provided for current sensing. The low level trip point minimizes I2R losses when a power resistor is used for current sensing. The adjustable retry feature can be used to handle loads with high initial currents, such as lamps or heating elements, and can be adjusted from the CT connection. CT to ground maintains gate drive shutdown following an overcurrent condition. A 0.01µF boost capacitor is recommended for best performance in the 12V to 20V range. Refer to figure 1. Larger capacitors may damage the MIC5021. +12V to +36V 10µF TTL Input 4 TTL Input 2 3 4 MIC5021 V DD Input V BOOST Gate CT Sense- Gnd Sense+ Input Gate CT Sense- Gnd Sense+ 8 7 6 5 2.7 nF +12V to +36V 10µF TTL Input 1 2 3 4 MIC5021 V DD Input V BOOST Gate CT Sense- Gnd Sense+ 8 0.01 µF 7 6 5 Load Figure 3. Preferred 20V to 36V Configuration Do not use both boost capacitor between VBOOST and the MOSFET source and VBOOST and VDD at the same time. Current Sense Resistors Lead length can be significant when using low value (< 1Ω) resistors for current sensing. Errors caused by lead length can be avoided by using four-teminal current sensing resistors. Four-terminal resistors are available from several manufacturers. 7 5 V BOOST Figure 2. 12V to 36V Configuration If the full 12V to 36V voltage range is required, the boost capacitor value must be reduced to 2.7nF. Refer to Figure 2. The recommended configuration for the 20V to 36V range is to place the capacitor is placed between VDD and VBOOST as shown in Figure 3. 8 6 MIC5021 V DD Load +12V to +20V 1 2 3 CT open, or a capacitor to ground, causes automatic retry. The default duty cycle (CT open) is approximately 20%. Refer to the electrical characteristics when selecting a capacitor for reduced duty cycle. CT through a pull-up resistor to VDD increases the duty cycle. Increasing the duty cycle increases the power dissipation in the load and MOSFET under a “fault” condition. Circuits may become unstable at a duty cycle of about 75% or higher, depending on conditions. Caution: The MIC5021 may be damaged if the voltage applied to CT exceeds the absolute maximum voltage rating. Boost Capacitor Selection The boost capacitor value will vary depending on the supply voltage range. 10µF 1 0.01 µF Load Figure 1. 12V to 20V Configuration MIC5021 6 July 2005 MIC5021 Micrel, Inc.

Solenoid Driver with Current Sensing 0.01 µF Sense Pin Considerations The sense pins of the MIC5021 are sensitive to negative voltages. Forcing the sense pins much below –0.5V effectively reverses the supply voltage on portions of the driver resulting in unpredictable operation or damage. Load Figure 4b. Connecting Sense to Supply Current sensing may be omitted by connecting the SENSE + and SENSE – pins to the source of the MOSFET or to the supply. Connecting the SENSE pins to the supply is preferred for inductive loads. Do not connect the SENSE pins to ground. Inductive Load Precautions Circuits controlling inductive loads, such as solenoids (Figure 5) and motors, require precautions when controlled by the MIC5021. Wire wound resistors, which are sometimes used to simulate other loads, can also show significant inductive properties. An inductive load releases stored energy when its current flow is interrupted (when the MOSFET is switched off). The voltage across the inductor reverses and the inductor attempts to force current flow. Since the circuit appears open (the MOSFET appears as a very high resistance) a very large negative voltage occurs across the inductor. Limiting Inductive Spikes The voltage across the inductor can be limited by connecting a Schottky diode across the load. The diode is forward biased only when the load is switched off. The Schottky diode clamps negative transients to a few volts. This protects the MOSFET from drain-to-source breakdown and prevents the transient from damaging the charge pump by way of the boost capacitor. Also see Sense Pin Considerations below.

Current flows from ground (0V) through the diodes to the load during negative transcients. Inductive Load Figure 6. Inductive Load Turnoff Figure 6 shows current flowing out of the sense leads of an MIC5021 during a negative transient (inductive kick). Internal Schottky diodes attempt to limit the negative transient by maintaining a low forward drop. Although the internal Schottky diodes can protect the driver in low-current resistive applications, they are inadequate for inductive loads or the lead inductance in high-current resistive loads. Because of their small size, the diodes’ forward voltage drop quickly exceeds 0.5V as current increases. 7 MIC5021 MIC5021 Micrel, Inc. External Protection Resistors placed in series with each SENSE connection limit the current drawn from the internal Schottky diodes during a negative transient.

High Side Sensing Lamp Driver Application Incandescent lamps have a high inrush current (low resistance) when turned on. The MIC5021 can perform a “soft start” by pulsing the MOSFET (overcurrent condition) until the filament is warm and its current decreases (resistance increases). The sense resistor value is selected so the voltage drop across the sense resistor decreases below the sense threshold (50mV) as the filament becomes warm. The FET is no longer pulsed and the lamp turns completely on. 8 5 Gnd N-Channel Power MOSFET (IRFZ44) 6 Load TTL Input 6 Sense- 7 0.01 µF +12V to +36V 1 CT RS E N S E (< 0.01Ω) 8 RS 50mV nominal (at trip) Figure 7. Resistor Voltage Drop During normal operation, sensing current from the sense pins is unequal (5µA and 15µA). The internal Schottky diodes are reverse biased and have no effect. To avoid skewing the trip voltage, the current limiting resistors must drop equal voltages at the trip point currents. See Figure 7. To minimize resistor tolerance error, use a voltage drop lower than the trip voltage of 50mV. 5mV is suggested. External Schottky diodes are also recommended. See D2 and D3 in Figure 8. The external diodes clamp negative transients better than the internal diodes because their larger size minimizes the forward voltage drop at higher currents. 10µF Gate Input 3 R1 V BOOST VDD 2 TTL Input R1≅ 3 × R2 MIC5021 MIC5021 1 10µF 6 CT High-Side Sensing Sensing the current on the high side of the MOSFET isolates the SENSE pins from the inductive spike. 8 July 2005 MIC5021 Micrel, Inc.

Gate-to-Source Pull Down The gate-to-source configuration (refer to Figure 12a) is appropriate for resistive and inductive loads. This also causes the smallest decrease in gate output voltage. Load Figure 11. Remote Control Circuit Switching Q1 on pulls CT low which keeps the MIC5021 GATE output off when an overcurrent is sensed. Switching Q1 off causes CT to appear open. The MIC5021 retries in about 20µs and continues to retry until the overcurrent condition is removed. For demonstration purposes, a 680Ω load resistor and 3Ω sense resistor will produce an overcurrent condition when the load’s supply (V+) is approximately 12V or greater. Low-Temperature Operation As the temperature of the MIC5021AJB (extended temperature range version—no longer available) approaches –55°C, the driver’s off-state, gate-output offset from ground increases. If the operating environment of the MIC5021AJB includes low temperatures (–40°C to –55°C), add an external 2.2MΩ resistor as shown in Figures 12a or 12b. This assures that the driver’s gate-to-source voltage is far below the external MOSFET’s gate threshold voltage, forcing the MOSFET fully off.
