A5957
Full-Bridge PWM Gate Driver
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Device Operation
RC
The A5957 is designed to operate DC motors. The output drivers
are capable of 50 V with gate-driver capability for an all n-channel external MOSFET H-bridge. Control logic includes synchronous rectification to reduce power dissipation. Current limit
is regulated by fixed off-time pulse-width-modulated (PWM)
control circuitry.
The RC terminal is used to set both fixed off-time and blank-time
for the internal PWM current control. Refer to the following three
sections to select RC component values.
Internal PWM Current Control
Peak current is regulated by monitoring the voltage on an external sense resistor.
VREF
IPEAK =
(10 × RSENSE)
When the peak current is exceeded, the source driver turns off
for a fixed period tOFF to chop the current. The outputs operate
in mixed-decay mode during tOFF. Refer to the Fixed Off-Time
Setting section to set tOFF.
The internal current-sense circuit is ignored for tBLANK after
PWM transitions. The comparator output is blanked to prevent
false overcurrent detection due to reverse recovery currents of the
clamp diodes, or switching transients related to the capacitance of
the load, or both. Refer to the Blank-Time Setting section to set
tBLANK.
Brake
It is important to note that the internal PWM current control
circuit will not limit the current when braking, since the current
does not flow through the sense resistor. The maximum current
can be approximated by VBEMF / RMOTOR. Care should be taken
to ensure that the maximum ratings of the external MOSFET are
not exceeded in worst-case braking situations of high speed and
high inertial loads.
ISET
A resistor from ISET terminal to ground sets the magnitude of
the gate current. The sink and source current ratios are fixed at
approximately 2-to-1 where the pull-down current is approximately two times the pull-up current. RISET should be between
20 and 150 kΩ.
The formula for determining the gate drive is:
IGATE_HS (mA) = 1.9 +
900
RISET (kΩ)
IGATE_LS (mA) = 3.5 +
1700
RISET (kΩ)
Fixed Off-Time Setting
The internal PWM current-control circuitry uses a one-shot to
control the time the drivers remain off. The one-shot off-time
(tOFF) is determined by the selection of an external resistor and
capacitor connected from the RC timing terminal to ground. The
off-time, over a range of values of CRC = 470 to 1500 pF and
RRC = 12 to 100 kΩ, is approximated by:
tOFF = RRC × CRC + dead time
Blank-Time Setting
This circuit blanks the output of the current-sense comparator
when the outputs are switched by the internal current-control
circuitry or by an external PWM chop command. The comparator
blanking time, tBLANK, is determined by the selection of an external resistor and capacitor connected from the RC timing terminal
to ground, and is approximated by:
(3.6/RRC (kΩ))
tBLANK = 2.6 µs × CRC (nF) × e
Slow Decay
In slow-decay mode, the low-side switch stays on and the
high-side switch turns off. Due to the synchronous rectification
feature, the complementary low-side switch turns on after a deadtime.
OCLn Output
An open drain logic output will be driven low to indicate system
operation. The OCLn terminal is driven low under two conditions:
1. When the system is limiting current to value set by VREF
and RSENSE. Once overcurrent events are no longer detected,
the A5957 will release the indication after a time tOCLn.
2. When a VDS fault is detected, the OCLn terminal is driven
low. It is released when the fault is reset.
The OCLn terminal, in combination with the AIOUT terminal,
can provide valuable information about how the system is behaving:
• Overcurrent events can indicate a motor stall condition, in
which case the system controller can respond to the fault
condition by reducing PWM duty. When OCLn is low and the
voltage on AIOUT is greater than 0 V, the controller is actively

A5957
limiting current with the internal, fixed off-time PWM current
limiter.
• In the case of a VDS fault, the OCLn terminal is also driven
low, but the AIOUT voltage will be 0 V, because the bridge
has been disabled. This notifies the user that a VDS fault has
occurred and the driver has been disabled.
AIOUT
An analog output can be used to monitor current through the
external sense resistor (if used). The SENSE voltage is gained by
a factor of 10 and fed to the AIOUT terminal. A sample-and-hold
circuit is used to capture the voltage across the sense resistor and
holds it during periods when the voltage is not representative of
the current in the motor. The AIOUT Output diagram illustrates
when the voltage is held. The held voltage will droop at a rate
equal to VDROOP. In the case of a VDS fault on the bridge, the
AIOUT terminal will be discharged to zero volts.
Charge Pump
The Charge Pump is used to generate a supply above VBB to
drive the high-side MOSFETs. The VCP voltage is internally
monitored and, in the case of a fault condition, the outputs of the
device are disabled.
MOSFET VDS Protection
The drain-to-source voltage is monitored across the MOSFET
any time the MOSFET is on. If the voltage across the MOSFET
exceeds VDSTHRES, the bridge is disabled and latched off.
Full-Bridge PWM Gate Driver
In order to prevent false VDS faults, the VDS monitor is blanked
immediately after any MOSFET is turned on. The VDS monitor
waits for a blank-time defined by the components on the RC terminal before monitoring the VDS level. During the off-time when
SR is active, VDS blanking is fixed at 1 µs.
VDS Fault
When a VDS fault occurs, and the bridge is disabled, and the
fault is latched, the OCLn terminal is immediately driven low.
The latch can only be reset by going into standby or by dropping
VBB below the UVLO threshold.
Standby Mode
Low power standby mode is activated when SLEEPn is brought
low. Standby mode disables most of the internal circuitry, including the charge pump and internal regulator. When coming out of
standby mode, the A5957 requires up to 300 µs before the outputs
can respond to input commands.
TSD
If the die temperature increases to approximately TTSD, the full
bridge outputs will be disabled until the internal temperature falls
below TTSD minus a hysteresis level of THYS.
Fault Shutdown
In the event of a fault due to excessive junction temperature,
or low voltage on VCP or VBB, the outputs of the device are
disabled until the fault condition is removed. At power-up, the
UVLO circuit disables the drivers until the UVLO thresholds are
exceeded.
