Description
The IRS20954 is a high voltage, high speed MOSFET driver
with floating PWM input, specially designed for Class D audio
amplifier applications. The bi-directional current sensing
requires no external shunt resistors. It can capture over-current
conditions at either positive or negative load current direction. A
built-in control block provides secure protection sequence
against over-current conditions, including a programmable reset
timer.
The internal deadtime generation block provides
accurate gate switch timing and enables optimum deadtime
settings for better audio performances, such as THD and audio
noise floor.

Functional Description
Floating PWM Input
The IRS20954 has a floating input interface which enables easy half bridge implementation. Three pins, VDD, CSD
and IN, are referenced to VSS. As a result, the PWM input signal can be directly fed into IN referencing ground, which
is typically middle point of DC bus in a half bridge configuration.
The IRS20954 also has a non-floating input with VSS tied to COM.

Over-Current Protection (OCP)
The IRS20954 features over-current protection to protect the power MOSFET from over load conditions. The IRS20954 enters
shutdown mode when it detects over-current condition either from low side or high side current sensing. The timing control
block measures resume timing interval with an external timing capacitor Ct. All the critical timing of the over-current protection is
specified and guaranteed for secure protection.
The sequence on the over-current detection is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
As soon as either high or low side current sensing block detects over-current condition, the OC Latch (OCL) flips and
shutdowns the outputs LO and HO.
The CSD pin starts discharging the external capacitor Ct.
When VSCD crosses the lower threshold Vth2, the output signal from the COMP2 resets the OCL.
The CSD pin starts charging the external capacitor Ct.
When VSCD crosses the upper threshold Vth1, the COMP1 flips and enables shutdown signal released.
If one of current sensing block detects over-current condition, the sequence is repeated until the cause of over-current
goes away.

Protection Control
The internal protection control block manages operational mode between shutdown and normal, with a help from CSD pin.
Shutdown mode forces LO and HO to output 0 V to the COM and VS respectively to turn the power MOSFET off.
The external capacitor pin, CSD, provides five functions.
1. Power up delay timer for self reset configuration
2. Self-reset configuration
3. Shutdown input
4. Latched protection configuration

Designing Ct
Timing capacitor Ct programs the protection resume interval timing tPR given as:
t PR = 1.1⋅
Ct ⋅VDD
I CSD
[sec]
or
Ct =
t PR ⋅ I CSD
1.1 ⋅ VDD
[F]
For example, tPR is 1.2 s with a 10 µF capacitor for VDD=10.8 V. The start-up time tSU, from power-up to
shutdown release, is given as:
t SU = 0.7 ⋅
Ct ⋅ VDD
I CSD
[sec]
or
Ct =
t SU ⋅ I CSD
0.7 ⋅ VDD
[F]
where ICSD is charge/discharge current in CSD pin, 100 µA.
VDD is supply voltage respect to VSS.
Protection-resume timing tPR should be long enough to avoid over heating and failure of the MOSFET from
the repetitive sequences of shutdown and resume when the load is in continuous short circuit. In most of
applications, the minimum recommended protection-resume timing tPR is 0.1 s.
Shutdown Input
By externally discharging Ct down to below Vth2, for example with a transistor shown in Fig. 9, the IRS20954 enters
shutdown mode. The operation resumes when the voltage of CSD pin comes back and cross the upper threshold of
CSD, Vth1, by its charging process.

Interfacing with System Controller
The IRS20954 communicates with external system controller by adding simple interfacing circuit shown in Fig. 11. A
generic PNP-BJT U1, such as 2N3906, is to send out SD signal when OCP event happens by capturing sinking
current in CSD pin. Another generic NPN-BJT U2, such as 2N3094, is to reset the internal protection logic by pulling
the CSD voltage below Vth2. Note that the CSD pin is configured as a latched type OCP in this configuration.

Programming OCP Trip Level
In a Class D audio amplifier, the direction of the load current alternates according to the audio input signal. An overcurrent condition can therefore happen during either a positive current cycle or a negative current cycle. The IRS20954
uses RDS(ON) in the output MOSFET as current sensing resistors. Due to the high voltage IC structural constraints, high
and low side have different implementations of current sensing. Once measured current gets exceeded predetermined threshold, OC output signal is fed to the protection block to shutdown the MOSFET to protect the devices.

Low Side Over-Current Sensing
For the negative load current, low side over-current sensing monitors over load condition and shutdown the switching operation
if the load current exceeds the preset trip level.
The low side current sensing is based on measurement of VDS during the low side MOFET on state. In order to avoid incorrect
current value due to overshoot , VS sensing ignores the first 200 ns signal after LO turned on.
OCSET pin is to program the threshold for low side over-current sensing. The threshold voltage at VS pin turning on the OC
protection is the same as the voltage applied to the OCSET pin to COM. It is recommended to use VREF to supply a reference
voltage to a resistive divider, R4 and R5, generating a voltage to OCSET for better immunity against VCC fluctuations.

IRS20954S
Since the sensed voltage of VS is compared with the voltages fed to the OCSET pin, the required voltage of OCSET with
respect to COM for a trip level ITRIP+ is:
VOCSET = VDS(LOW SIDE) = ITRIP+ x RDS(ON)
In order to neglect the input bias current of OCSET pin, it is recommended to use 10 kΩ total for R4 and R5 to drain 0.5 mA
through the resistors.
High Side Over-Current Sensing
For the positive load current, high side over-current sensing monitors over load condition by measuring VDS with CSH and Vs
pins and shutdown the operation. The CSH pin is to detect the drain-to-source voltage refers to the VS pin which is the source
of the high side MOSFET. In order to neglect overshoot ringing at the switching edges, CSH sensing circuitry starts monitoring
after the first 300 ns the HO is on by blanking the signal from CSH pin.
In contrast to the low side current sensing, the threshold of CSH pin to engage OC protection is internally fixed at 1.2 V. An
external resistive divider R2 and R3 can be used to program a higher threshold.
An external reverse blocking diode, D1, is to block high voltage feeding into the CSH pin while high side is off. By subtracting a
forward voltage drop of 0.6 V at D1, the minimum threshold which can be set in the high side is 0.6 V across the drain to
source.
With the configuration in Fig. 14, the voltage in CSH is:
VCSH =
R3
⋅ (V DS ( HIGHSIDE ) + V F ( D1) )
R 2 + R3
Where:
VDS(HIGH SIDE) is drain to source voltage of the high side MOSFET in its ON state
VF(D1) is the forward drop voltage of D1
Since VDS(HIGH SIDE) is determined by the product of drain current ID and RDS(ON) in the high side MOSFET. VCSH can be written
as:
VCSH =
R3
⋅ (RDS ( ON ) ⋅ I D + VF ( D1) )
R 2 + R3
R 2 VDS + VF
=
−1
R3 VthOCH
The reverse blocking diode D1 is forward biased by a 10 kΩ resistor R1 when the high side MOSFET is on.

Figure 14: Programming High Side Over-Current Threshold
OCP Design Example
High Side Over-current Setting
Fig. 14 demonstrates the typical peripheral circuit of high side current sensing. For example, the over-current protection level is
set to trip at 30 A with a MOSFET with RDS(ON) of 100 mΩ, the component values of R2 and R3 are calculated as:
Choose R2+R3=10 kΩ, thus R3
R3 = 10kΩ
= 10kΩ − R2 .
VthOCH
VDS + VF
VthOCL = 1.2 V
VF = 0.6 V
VDS@ID=30A = 100 mΩ x 30 A = 3 V
VDS is the voltage drop at ID=30 A across RDS(ON) of the high side MOSFET. VF is a forward voltage of reverse blocking diode,
D1. The values of R2 and R3 from the E-12 series are:
R2 = 6.8 kΩ
R3 = 3.3 kΩ
Choosing the Right Reverse Blocking Diode
The reverse blocking diode D1 is determined by voltage rating and speed. To block bus voltage, reverse voltage has to be
higher than (+B)-(-B). Also the reverse recovery time needs to be as fast as the bootstrap charging diode. The Philips BAV21W,
200 V, 50 ns high speed switching diode, is more than sufficient.

Low Side Over-current Setting
Designing with the same MOSFET as in high side with RDS(ON) of 100 mΩ, the OCSET voltage, VOCSET, to set 30 A
trip level is given by:
VOCSET = ITRIP+ x RDS(ON) = 30 A x 100 mΩ = 3.0 V
Choose R4+R5=10 kΩ for proper loading of VREF pin, thus
R5 =
VOCSET
⋅10kΩ
VREF
3.0V
⋅10kΩ
5.1V
= 5.8kΩ
=
Where VREF is the output voltage of VREF pin, 5.1 V typical.
Choose R5 = 5.6 kΩ and R4 = 3.9 kΩ from E-12 series.
In general, RDS(ON) has a positive temperature coefficient that needs to be considered when the threshold level is being set.
Although this characteristic is preferable from a device protection point of view, these variation needs to be considered as well
as variations of external or internal component values.
Deadtime Generator
The deadtime generator block provides a blanking time between the high-side on and low-side on to avoid a simultaneous on
state causing shoot-through. The IRS20954 has an internal deadtime generation block to reduce the number of external
components in the output stage of a Class D audio amplifier. Selectable deadtime programmed through the DT/SD pin voltage
is an easy and reliable function, which requires only two external resistors. This selectable deadtime way of setting prevents
outside noise from modulating the switching timing, which is critical to the audio performances.
How to Determine Optimal Deadtime
The effective deadtime in an actual application differs from the deadtime specified in this datasheet due to finite switching fall
time, tf. The deadtime value in this datasheet is defined as the time period from the starting point of turn-off on one side of the
switching stage to the starting point of turn-on on the other side as shown in Fig. 15. The fall time of MOSFET gate voltage
must be subtracted from the deadtime value in the datasheet to determine the effective dead time of a Class D audio amplifier.
(Effective deadtime) = (Deadtime in datasheet) – (fall time, tf)

Figure 15: Effective Deadtime
A longer dead time period is required for a MOSFET with a larger gate charge value because of the longer tf. A shorter
effective deadtime setting is always beneficial to achieve better linearity in the Class D switching stage. However, the likelihood
of shoot-through current increases with narrower deadtime settings in mass production. Negative values of effective deadtime
may cause excessive heat dissipation in the MOSFETs, potentially leading to serious damage. To calculate the optimal
deadtime in a given application, the fall time tf for both output voltages, HO and LO, in the actual circuit needs to be measured.
In addition, the effective deadtime can also vary with temperature and device parameter variations. Therefore, a minimum
effective deadtime of 10 ns is recommended to avoid shoot-through current over the range of operating temperatures and
supply voltages.
Programming Deadtime
DT pin provides a function setting deadtime. The IRS20954 determines its deadtime based on the voltage applied to the DT pin.
An internal comparator translates which pre-determined deadtime is being used by comparing internal reference voltages.
Threshold voltages for each mode are set internally by a resistive voltage divider off VCC, negating the need of using a precise
absolute voltage to set the mode. The relationship between the operation mode and the voltage at DT pin is illustrated in the
Fig. 16 below.

Power Supply Considerations
Supplying VDD
VDD is designed to be supplied with the internal zener diode clamp. VDD supply current IDD can be estimated by:
-9
IDD = 1.5 mA x 300 x 10 x switching frequency + 0.5 mA + 0.5 mA
(Dynamic power consumption)
(Static) (zener bias)
The resistance of Rdd to feed this IDD therefore is:
Rdd ≤
V+ B − 10.8V [Ω]
I DD
In case of 400 kHz average PWM switching frequency, the required IDD is 1.18 mA. A condition using 50 V power supply
voltage yields Rdd=33 kΩ.
Make sure IDD is below the maximum zener diode bias current, IDDZ, at static state conditions such as a condition with no PWM
input.

Charging VBS Prior to start
The high side bootstrap power supply can be charged up through a resistor from the positive supply bus to VB pin by utilizing an
internal 20.8 V zener diode clamp between VB and VS. Advantage of this scheme is to eliminate the minimum duration required
for the initial low-side ON.
To determine the requirement for Rcharge, following condition has to be met;
I CHARGE > I QBS
Where ICHARGE is a required charging current through Rcharge
IQBS is high side quiescent current
Note that Rcharge can drain floating supply charge during on state of high side, which limits maximum PWM modulation index
capability of the system. Rcharge should be large enough not to discharge the floating power supply during the high side ON.

Start-up Sequence (UVLO)
The protection control block monitors the status of the power supply of VDD and VCC whether the voltages are above the Under
Voltage Lockout threshold. The LO and HO of the IRS20954 are disabled by shutdown until the UVLO of VCC and VDD are
released and CSD timer capacitor Ct is charged up. After the UVLO of VCC is released, CSD pin resets power-on timer. At the
time the voltage at CSD pin reached the release threshold, Vth1, shutdown logic enables LO and HO. The OC detection blocks
for the low side and high side are disabled until UVLO of VCC and VBS are released.

Power Supply Decoupling
As the IRS20954 contains analog circuitry, careful attention to the power supply decoupling should be taken to achieve proper
operation. Ceramic capacitors of 0.1 µF or more close to the power supply pins are recommended.
Please also refer to the application note AN-978 for general considerations of high voltage gate driver IC.
VSS Negative Bias Clamping
There is a case that VSS can go below the COM potential such as a case missing negative supply in dual supply configuration.
This causes excessive negative VSS voltage to damage the IRS20954. It is recommended to have a diode to clamp potential
negative bias to VSS, if there is a possibility. A standard recovery 1 A diode such as 1N4002 is sufficient in most cases for this
purpose.
