Max
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed
specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test
conditions.
Note 2: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJmax (maximum junction temperature), θJA (package
junction to ambient thermal resistance), and TA (ambient temperature). The maximum allowable power dissipation at any temperature is PDmax = (TJmax - TA)/
θJA or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower.
Note 3: The package material for these devices allows much improved heat transfer over our standard ceramic packages. In order to take full advantage of this
improved heat transfer, heat sinking must be provided between the package base (directly beneath the die), and either metal traces on, or thermal vias through,
the printed circuit board. Without this additional heat sinking, device power dissipation must be calculated using θJA, rather than θJC, thermal resistance. It must
not be assumed that the device leads will provide substantial heat transfer out of the package, since the thermal resistance of the leadframe material is very poor,
relative to the material of the package base. The stated θJC thermal resistance is for the package material only, and does not account for the additional thermal
resistance between the package base and the printed circuit board. The user must determine the value of the additional thermal resistance and must combine
this with the stated value for the package, to calculate the total allowed power dissipation for the device.

Pinout Description
(See Connection Diagram)
Pin 1, BOOTSTRAP 1 Input: Bootstrap capacitor pin for half H-bridge number 1. The recommended capacitor (10 nF) is connected
between pins 1 and 2.
Pin 2, OUTPUT 1: Half H-bridge number 1 output.
Pin 3, DIRECTION Input: See Table 1. This input controls the direction of current flow between OUTPUT 1 and OUTPUT 2 (pins
2 and 10) and, therefore, the direction of rotation of a motor load.
Pin 4, BRAKE Input: See Table 1. This input is used to brake a motor by effectively shorting its terminals. When braking is desired,
this input is taken to a logic high level and it is also necessary to apply logic high to PWM input, pin 5. The drivers that short the
motor are determined by the logic level at the DIRECTION input (Pin 3): with Pin 3 logic high, both current sourcing output transistors
are ON; with Pin 3 logic low, both current sinking output transistors are ON. All output transistors can be turned OFF by applying
a logic high to Pin 4 and a logic low to PWM input Pin 5; in this case only a small bias current (approximately −1.5 mA) exists at
each output pin.
Pin 5, PWM Input: See Table 1. How this input (and DIRECTION input, Pin 3) is used is determined by the format of the PWM
Signal.
Pin 6, VS Power Supply
Pin 7, GROUND Connection: This pin is the ground return, and is internally connected to the mounting tab.
Pin 8, CURRENT SENSE Output: This pin provides the sourcing current sensing output signal, which is typically 377 μA/A.
Pin 9, THERMAL FLAG Output: This pin provides the thermal warning flag output signal. Pin 9 becomes active-low at 145°C
(junction temperature). However the chip will not shut itself down until 170°C is reached at the junction.
Pin 10, OUTPUT 2: Half H-bridge number 2 output.
Pin 11, BOOTSTRAP 2 Input: Bootstrap capacitor pin for Half H-bridge number 2. The recommended capacitor (10 nF) is connected between pins 10 and 11.

Sign/magnitude PWM consists of separate direction (sign)
and amplitude (magnitude) signals (see Figure 3). The (absolute) magnitude signal is duty-cycle modulated, and the
absence of a pulse signal (a continuous logic low level) represents zero drive. Current delivered to the load is proportional to pulse width. For the LMD18200, the DIRECTION
input (pin 3) is driven by the sign signal and the PWM input
(pin 5) is driven by the magnitude signal.

Application Information
TYPES OF PWM SIGNALS
The LMD18200 readily interfaces with different forms of PWM
signals. Use of the part with two of the more popular forms of
PWM is described in the following paragraphs.
Simple, locked anti-phase PWM consists of a single, variable duty-cycle signal in which is encoded both direction and
amplitude information (see Figure 2). A 50% duty-cycle PWM
signal represents zero drive, since the net value of voltage
(integrated over one period) delivered to the load is zero. For
the LMD18200, the PWM signal drives the direction input (pin
3) and the PWM input (pin 5) is tied to logic high.
20160905
FIGURE 3. Sign/Magnitude PWM Control
SIGNAL TRANSITION REQUIREMENTS
To ensure proper internal logic performance, it is good practice to avoid aligning the falling and rising edges of input
signals. A delay of at least 1 µsec should be incorporated between transitions of the Direction, Brake, and/or PWM input
signals. A conservative approach is be sure there is at least
500ns delay between the end of the first transition and the
beginning of the second transition. See Figure 4.

INTERNAL CHARGE PUMP AND USE OF BOOTSTRAP
CAPACITORS
To turn on the high-side (sourcing) DMOS power devices, the
gate of each device must be driven approximately 8V more
positive than the supply voltage. To achieve this an internal
charge pump is used to provide the gate drive voltage. As
shown in Figure 5, an internal capacitor is alternately switched
to ground and charged to about 14V, then switched to V supply thereby providing a gate drive voltage greater than V
supply. This switching action is controlled by a continuously
running internal 300 kHz oscillator. The rise time of this drive
voltage is typically 20 μs which is suitable for operating frequencies up to 1 kHz.
USING THE THERMAL WARNING FLAG
The THERMAL FLAG output (pin 9) is an open collector transistor. This permits a wired OR connection of thermal warning
flag outputs from multiple LMD18200's, and allows the user
to set the logic high level of the output signal swing to match
system requirements. This output typically drives the interrupt
input of a system controller. The interrupt service routine
would then be designed to take appropriate steps, such as
reducing load currents or initiating an orderly system shutdown. The maximum voltage compliance on the flag pin is
12V.
SUPPLY BYPASSING
During switching transitions the levels of fast current changes
experienced may cause troublesome voltage transients
across system stray inductance.
It is normally necessary to bypass the supply rail with a high
quality capacitor(s) connected as close as possible to the
VS Power Supply (Pin 6) and GROUND (Pin 7). A 1 μF highfrequency ceramic capacitor is recommended. Care should
be taken to limit the transients on the supply pin below the
Absolute Maximum Rating of the device. When operating the
chip at supply voltages above 40V a voltage suppressor (transorb) such as P6KE62A is recommended from supply to
ground. Typically the ceramic capacitor can be eliminated in
the presence of the voltage suppressor. Note that when driving high load currents a greater amount of supply bypass
capacitance (in general at least 100 μF per Amp of load current) is required to absorb the recirculating currents of the
inductive loads.
20160906
FIGURE 5. Internal Charge Pump Circuitry
For higher switching frequencies, the LMD18200 provides for
the use of external bootstrap capacitors. The bootstrap principle is in essence a second charge pump whereby a large
value capacitor is used which has enough energy to quickly
charge the parasitic gate input capacitance of the power device resulting in much faster rise times. The switching action
is accomplished by the power switches themselves Figure
6. External 10 nF capacitors, connected from the outputs to
the bootstrap pins of each high-side switch provide typically
less than 100 ns rise times allowing switching frequencies up
to 500 kHz.
CURRENT LIMITING
Current limiting protection circuitry has been incorporated into
the design of the LMD18200. With any power device it is important to consider the effects of the substantial surge currents through the device that may occur as a result of shorted
loads. The protection circuitry monitors this increase in current (the threshold is set to approximately 10 Amps) and shuts
off the power device as quickly as possible in the event of an
overload condition. In a typical motor driving application the
most common overload faults are caused by shorted motor
windings and locked rotors. Under these conditions the inductance of the motor (as well as any series inductance in the
VCC supply line) serves to reduce the magnitude of a current
surge to a safe level for the LMD18200. Once the device is
shut down, the control circuitry will periodically try to turn the
power device back on. This feature allows the immediate return to normal operation in the event that the fault condition
has been removed. While the fault remains however, the device will cycle in and out of thermal shutdown. This can create
voltage transients on the VCC supply line and therefore proper
supply bypassing techniques are required.
The most severe condition for any power device is a direct,
hard-wired (“screwdriver”) long term short from an output to
ground. This condition can generate a surge of current
9
www.national.com
LMD18200QML
through the power device on the order of 15 Amps and require
the die and package to dissipate up to 500 Watts of power for
the short time required for the protection circuitry to shut off
the power device. This energy can be destructive, particularly
at higher operating voltages (>30V) so some precautions are
in order. Proper heat sink design is essential and it is normally
necessary to heat sink the VCC supply pin (pin 6) with 1 square
inch of copper on the PCB.
USING THE CURRENT SENSE OUTPUT
The CURRENT SENSE output (pin 8) has a sensitivity of 377
μA per ampere of output current. For optimal accuracy and
linearity of this signal, the value of voltage generating resistor
between pin 8 and ground should be chosen to limit the maximum voltage developed at pin 8 to 5V, or less. The maximum
voltage compliance is 12V.
It should be noted that the recirculating currents (free wheeling currents) are ignored by the current sense circuitry. Therefore, only the currents in the upper sourcing outputs are
sensed.
LMD18200QML
The reverse recovery characteristics of these diodes, once
the transient has subsided, is important. These diodes must
come out of conduction quickly and the power switches must
be able to conduct the additional reverse recovery current of
the diodes. The reverse recovery time of the diodes protecting
the sourcing power devices is typically only 70 ns with a reverse recovery current of 1A when tested with a full 6A of
forward current through the diode. For the sinking devices the
recovery time is typically 100 ns with 4A of reverse current
under the same conditions.
Typical Applications
FIXED OFF-TIME CONTROL
This circuit controls the current through the motor by applying
an average voltage equal to zero to the motor terminals for a
fixed period of time, whenever the current through the motor
exceeds the commanded current. This action causes the motor current to vary slightly about an externally controlled average level. The duration of the Off-period is adjusted by the
resistor and capacitor combination of the LM555. In this circuit
the Sign/Magnitude mode of operation is implemented (see
Types of PWM Signals).
20160907
FIGURE 6. Bootstrap Circuitry
INTERNAL PROTECTION DIODES
A major consideration when switching current through inductive loads is protection of the switching power devices from
the large voltage transients that occur. Each of the four
switches in the LMD18200 have a built-in protection diode to
clamp transient voltages exceeding the positive supply or
ground to a safe diode voltage drop across the switch.
