Figure 3 - Electrical Block Diagram
Description
Figure 3 shows the block diagram of the SPDPXXD375 SSPC Series. It uses a SN74LVC3G14 device for
digital I/O. This TTL compatible device has a Schmitt-Trigger input to minimize the effects of noise on the input.
Its outputs can each drive more than 10 standard TTL loads. It’s also compatible with CMOS inputs and
outputs. The SN74LVC3G14 is isolated from the remainder of the module circuitry by three optocouplers.
The block labeled “Control & Protection Circuitry” gets power from the DC-DC converter and is referenced to the
output of the SSPC. This block contains an amplifier to gain up the voltage developed across the sense
resistor. It also contains a microcontroller with on-board timers, A/D converter, clock generator and independent
watchdog timer. The microcontroller implements a precision I2t protection curve as well as an Instant Trip
function to protect the wiring and to protect itself. It performs all of the functions of multiple analog comparators
and discrete logic in one high-reliability component.
The code programmed in the microcontroller acquires the output of the internal A/D converter, squares the
result and applies it to a simulated RC circuit. It checks the output of the simulated circuit to determine whether
or not to trip (turn off the power Mosfets). Because the microcontroller simulates an analog RC circuit, the
SSPC has ‘thermal memory’. That is, it trips faster if there had been current flowing prior to the overload than if
there hadn’t been current flowing. This behavior imitates thermal circuit breakers and better protects the
application’s wiring since the wiring cannot take as much an overload if current had been flowing prior to the
overload.

DATASHEET 5022, Rev A
The watchdog timer operates from its own internal clock so a failure of the main clock will not stop the watchdog
timer. The code programmed in the microcontroller will periodically reset the watchdog timer preventing it from
timing out. If the code malfunctions for any reason, the watchdog timer is not reset and it times out. When the
watchdog timer times out, it resets the microcontroller. Since the code is designed to detect levels and not
edges, the output of the module, and therefore the output of the SPDPXXD375, immediately reflects the
command on its input.
The “Control & Protection Circuitry” block also has the ability for the user to adjust the current rating by varying
the trip point with a resistor between the “I2t ADJ” pin and the “TRIM COMMON” pin and to adjust the Instant
Trip current level with a resistor between the “INSTANT TRIP ADJ” pin and the “TRIM COMMON” pin. See
Figures 4 and 5 to select the appropriate resistor for adjusting the current rating for the SPDP03D375 and
SPDP10D375 models, respectively. See Figures 6 and 7 to select the appropriate resistor for adjusting the
Instant Trip current level for the SPDP03D375 and SPDP10D375 models, respectively.
When setting the current rating, select a resistor according to Figures 4 and 5 for 10% above the desired rating.
Example: to set the SPDP03D375 to a rating of 2 Amps, look on Figure 4 for 2.2 Amps and select a resistor of
2.7K.

Figure 7 – SPDP10D375 Instant Trip Trim Resistor Selection
The Power Mosfets used in the SPDPXXD375 Series have been selected for very low Rds(on) and result in low
voltage drop and low power dissipation. In most applications, the SPDPXXD375 will be operated at 50 – 60% of
rated current to provide a safety margin. As can be seen in Table 4, when the SPDP10D375 is operated at 6
Amps, 60% of rated current, it dissipates less than 1.0 Watt at room temperature. No heatsinking is required for
this condition. However, if the SPDP10D375 is to be operated at maximum rating and/or at elevated
temperatures, the dissipation can exceed 4 Watts and heatsinking is required. Some heatsink can be
accomplished by adding copper area to the “LINE” and “LOAD” pins, a heatsink can be epoxy attached to the
surface of the module or a flat copper or aluminum heatsink can be sandwiched between the SPDP10D375 and
the printed circuit board using a thermal pad to maximize heat transfer. Each application should be evaluated at
maximum expected constant current. The SPDP03D375 Series does not require heat sinking under any
condition.
For overloads, no heatsinking is required provided the SPDPXXD375 Series is allowed some time to cool down.
The SPDPXXD375 has sufficient thermal mass that the temperature will rise only a few degrees under the
worst-case overload. Repetitive overloads should be avoided. When the SPDPXXD375 reports a trip condition,
the controller driving the SPDPXXD375 should allow no more than four repetitions and then allow thirty seconds
to cool down before trying to turn on again.
The SPDPXXD375 will trip on overloads in the ALWAYS TRIP region shown in Figure 1 and will never trip when
in the NEVER TRIP region. The SPDPXXD375 can be reset by bringing the CONTROL pin to a logic low.
When the “CONTROL” pin is brought back to logic high, the SPDPXXD375 will turn back on. If the overload is
still present, the SPDPXXD375 will trip again. Cycling the “5 Volt BIAS” power will also reset the SPDPXXD375.
If the “CONTROL” pin is at logic high when the “5 Volt BIAS” power is cycled, the SPDPXXD375 will turn back
on when the “5 Volt BIAS” power is re-applied.

Status Outputs
The “S1” and “S2” status outputs of the SPDPXXD375 show whether or not there is an over temperature
condition and whether or not the line voltage is present. When an unsafe temperature condition is present, the
“S2” status goes to a logic high state and the output of the SPDPXXD375 is turned off. When the temperature
drops about 15 oC to a safe condition, the “S2” status output goes back low and the output of the SPDPXXD375
is turned back on. Both “S1” and “S2” status outputs go to a high level when the line voltage drops below 5
volts.
Table 5 shows the states of the “S1” and “S2” status outputs.
Table 5 – Control and Status
.
High Voltage Considerations
The SPDPxxD375 series is designed for 375VDC systems. The SPDPxxD375 contains an Output Leakage
Sink to ensure that the output is at a safe voltage when the SPDPxxD375 is off (whether the SPDPxxD375 is
turned off or is off due to loss of 5V BIAS Power). This circuitry absorbs the leakage current from the main
switch and keeps the output voltage less than 1.5VDC over the temperature range. Figure 3 shows the Output
Leakage Sink as a simple switch. However, the Output Leakage Sink is a transistor operating as a current
source with a value of 83 mA. When the current into the output leakage sink is less than 83 mA, the transistor
saturates and the output leakage sink looks like a resistor of about 36 Ohms. 83 mA can be used to determine
how long it takes to discharge a particular load capacitance if the load is a pure capacitance. If the load is a
combination of resistance and capacitance, it’s likely that the RC time constant will discharge the capacitance
faster than the output leakage sink.
Sufficient spacing should be allowed for on the user’s PCB between the 375VDC line supply and the 375VDC
power return and between the CONTROL and 5VDC Bias circuits and the 375VDC circuit to prevent arcing.
Due to the small size of the SPDPXXD375 series, the spacing between pins is small so conformal coating
should be used to prevent arcing, especially if transient voltages above 375VDC are possible.
Wire Size
MIL-W-5088L has a chart the shows wire size as a function of wire temperature and current. This chart is for a
single copper wire in free air. For an ambient temperature of 70 oC, the chart allows a 24-gauge wire to handle
10 Amps continuously at a wire temperature of 200 oC – a wire temperature rise of 130 oC. For a wire
temperature limited to 150 oC, the chart requires a 22-gauge wire and for a wire temperature of 105 oC, the chart
requires a 20-gauge wire.

TECHNICAL DATA
DATASHEET 5022, Rev A
Amendment 1 of MIL-W-5088L has a table for copper wire in a bundle, group or harness with condition on the
number of wires, percent of total harness capacity, etc. This table shows that an 18 gauge wire is necessary for
200 oC operation, 16-gauge for 150 oC and 14-gauge for 105 oC.
MIL-W-5088L has various figures showing derating for harnesses as a function of the number of current carrying
conductors for different altitudes. MIL-W-5088L only specifies wire for DC or RMS AC conditions, not for
transient or overload conditions. MIL-W-5088L and its amendment should be consulted to determine minimum
wire sizes for other currents and conditions.
For transient or overload conditions, the transient or overload happens so quickly that heat is not transferred
from the wire to the surroundings. The heat caused by the I2R heating of the wire causes the temperature to
rise at a linear rate controlled by the heat capacity of the wire. The equation for this linear rise in temperature,
with respect to time, can be solved as: I2t = constant. Every wire has an I2t rating that’s dependent on the
temperature rise allowed and the diameter of the wire. If the I2t rating of the SSPC or circuit breaker is less than
the I2t rating of the wire, then the SSPC or circuit breaker can protect the wire. The maximum I2t rating for the
SPDxxD375 is 130 Amp2-Seconds. Every wire size in the paragraphs above has an I2t rating that exceeds the
SPDPxxD375 I2t rating for the temperature rises stated. Therefore, to select a wire size, it’s simply a matter of
determining the maximum temperature rise of the application and deciding whether or not the wire will be in a
bundle and use the information above.
Application Connections
Due to the presence of the circuitry that keeps the output at safe voltage when the SPDPxxD375 series are off,
the SPDPxxD375 Series may only be configured as a high-side switch as shown in Figure 3.
Rise Time & Fall Time
The rise and fall times of the SPDPxxD375 are pre-set at the factory for a nominal 600µS rise time and 100µS
fall time with a LINE supply of 375VDC (see Table 1 for min/max limits). The rise and fall times will vary linearly
with supply voltage. The “PWR RTN” pin is used to control the rise and fall times. If the “PWR RTN” pin is left
open, the rise and fall times will be less than 25uS. Leaving the “PWR RTN” pin open can be useful when a
faster rise or fall time is desirable; however, the Output Leakage Sink will not be functional with the “PWR RTN”
pin open.
With the “PWR RTN” pin connected as in Figures 3, the SPDPxxD375, when set for a 10 Amp rating, can turn
on into a capacitive load of 220µF, typ, without tripping for any power supply voltage within the ratings. The
capacitive load capability is proportional to current rating and can be therefore easily calculated for each model
and setting in the SPDPxxD375 Series.
Wiring and Load Inductance
Wiring inductance can cause voltage transients when the SPDPxxD375 is switched off due to an overload.
Generally, these transients are small but must be considered when long wires are used on either the “LINE” or
“LOAD” pins or both. A 30 foot length of wire in free air will cause a transient voltage of about 10 Volts when the
SPDP10D375 trips at an Instant Trip level of 80 Amps. At the rated load current of 10 Amps, the voltage
transient will be less than 1 Volt. If longer wire lengths are used, a transient suppressor may be used at the
“LINE” pin so that the total voltage between the “LINE” and “LOAD” pins is less than 500 Volts. The
SPDPxxD375V series includes a reverse biased diode from the “LOAD” to “PWR RTN” pins to prevent
damaging transients on the output due to inductive loads.

Paralleling
For example, putting two SPDP10D375s in parallel will not double the rating to 20 Amps. Due to differences in
the Rds(on) of the Power Mosfets in the SSPCs, the current will not share equally. In addition, there are unit-tounit differences in the trip curves so that two SPDP10D375s in parallel may possibly trip at 15 Amps. Also, both
SPDP10D375s will not trip together; the SPDP10D375 carrying the higher current will trip first followed by the
other SPDP10D375. Multiple SPDP10D375s may be used in parallel as long as these complexities are
appreciated. Due not parallel different models of this series as the current sharing will not be predictable.
Board Layout
The current-carrying power circuit should be kept well away from the control circuit and other low-level circuits in
the system. It’s unlikely, but possible, that magnetic coupling could affect the control circuit when turning normal
loads on and off. However, in the case of an overload, the magnetic coupling could be 10 times greater than
with normal loads. Effects of such coupling could cause ‘chattering’ when turning on and off, oscillation, and the
possibility of turning the SPDPxxD375 back on after an overload. The SPDPxxD375 Series is a Trip-Free
device. Once tripped it will not turn back on until reset and commanded on again. Reset is accomplished by
bringing the “CONTROL” pin low and turning the SSPC back on is accomplished by bringing the “CONTROL”
pin high. Sufficient magnetic coupling between the current-carrying power circuit and the control circuit can
negate the Trip-Free characteristic.
MIL-STD-704F
This standard covers the characteristics of the electrical systems in Military Aircraft. The SPDPxxD375 Series
meets all of the requirements of MIL-STD-704F including Normal, Emergency, Abnormal and Electric Starting
conditions with the Ripple, Distortion Factor and Distortion Spectrum defined in the standard.
In addition, the SPDPxxD375 Series can withstand + 600 V spikes for 10µS. This capability is beyond that
required by MIL-STD-704F.
