ISL25700 Features The Temperature Controlled MOSFET Driver is a highly integrated solution that combines a MOSFET driver with overcurrent protection and two 8-bit resolution DACs on a monolithic CMOS integrated circuit (IC). • User-programmable Setpoint via I2C Serial Interface The ISL25700 sets up and monitors temperature at the point of interest, compares it with the user programmable setpoint, and adjusts the output until the set temperature is reached. An external power MOSFET, a heater, an NTC thermistor and the ISL25700 are parts of the temperature control loop. It also features programmable overcurrent protection of the MOSFET. The current protection automatically adjusts the output voltage in order to keep MOSFET power under user defined limits. The protection settings always override the temperature settings that cause violation of the current limit. • Setpoint Temperature Range from +40°C to +110°C • Operational Temperature Range from -40°C to +125°C • 3°C Initial Setpoint Accuracy • Coarse and Fine Tuning Setpoint Control - +15°C Coarse Adjustment - +0.1°C Fine Adjustment • ±0.5°C Long-term Drift Error • Programmable Current Protection of External MOSFET • 5-bit Selectable Gain Control • Wide Power Supply Range: 3V to 15V • Works with 20kΩ to 200kΩ External NTC Thermistor • General Purpose 8-bit DAC - 0.4% Output Resolution There is an additional 8-bit General Purpose DAC that is available for application specific use. • High Reliability - Endurance: 10,000 Data Changes per Bit per Register - Register Data Retention: 10 years @ T ≤ +125°C The ISL25700 can be used in a variety of applications where constant temperature is a key parameter. • 10 Lead μTQFN 2.1mmx1.6mm Package • Pb-free (RoHS Compliant) Applications*(see page 17) • Oven Controlled Applications with Micro Temperature Chamber in: - Basestations - Spectrometers - Precision Meters - Precision Generators 100 TEMPERATURE (°C) 80 60 40 20 0 0 3 6 9 12 15 TIME (MINUTES) FIGURE 1.

This pins supplies the power necessary to operate the chip. 2 SCL I2C interface input clock. This input is the serial clock of the I2C serial interface. SCL requires an external pull-up resistor. It has an internal pull-down resistor of ~3MΩ to prevent a floating input if the pin will be left unconnected. 3 SDA Open Drain Serial Data Input/Output for the I2C interface. The SDA is a bidirectional serial data input/output pin for I2C interface. It receives device address, operation code and data from an I2C external master device at the rising edge of the serial clock SCL, and it shifts out data after each falling edge of the serial clock. The SDA pin requires an external pull-up resistor. It has an internal pull-down resistor of ~3MΩ to prevent a floating input if the pin will be left unconnected. 4 GND Ground. Bias and reference ground of the chip. 5 RTH External NTC thermistor. An external NTC thermistor makes one shoulder of the Wheatstone bridge and must be connected between the RTH pin and GND. 6 VDAC DAC Output. This is the output of the precision 8-bit DAC. Default DAC output is in the range of 0V to 2V. The DAC output range can be extended with a gain of 2 by setting the DAC Gain bit. 7 VOUT Output voltage that controls an external P-MOSFET. This pin drives an external P-MOSFET proportional to unbalanced condition of the Wheatstone bridge. 8 ISENSE Current Sense input. This pin monitors voltage drop over an external current sense resistor RSENSE. Power dissipation of the P-MOSFET will be limited when ISENSE exceeds the voltage drop limit set in the Current Sense Register. 9 CCOMP Compensation capacitor. A compensation ceramic capacitor must be added between CCOMP and GND to increase chip stability. This capacitor provides a negative feedback for the operational amplifier and its value can be from 30pF to 1000pF. 10 NC Not internally connected. 3 FN6885.0 September 3, 2010 ISL25700 Ordering Information PART NUMBER (Notes 1, 2, 3) PART MARKING UNITS PER REEL TEMP RANGE (°C) PACKAGE (Pb-free) PKG.

GP DAC GAIN ERROR Principles of Operation The ISL25700 allows for precisely controlling the temperature of an external object and/or power dissipation of the external P-MOSFET. The temperature control is done by continuously sensing resistance of the NTC thermistor, and adjusting the current flow through the P-MOSFET (temperature controlling element). ISL25700 drives the P-MOSFET proportionally inverted to the difference between the object temperature and target temperature set point (TSET), set by the user through the I2C serial interface. Temperature is sensed by the external NTC thermistor and converted to a driving voltage by the Wheatstone bridge and its amplifier. One leg of the current-mode Wheatstone bridge contains an external NTC thermistor with the programmable 8-bit FTC DAC and another leg contains the selectable current source K1 that feeds an internal resistor RINT. The 8-bit FTC DAC allows fine-tuning the TSET with resolution better than +0.1°C within a +15°C coarse temperature range window. The TSET temperature is set through the Temperature Coarse Range Control Register, Reg.01h[2:0], and the Fine Temperature Control Register, Reg.02h[7:0]; refer to “ISL25700 MEMORY MAP” on page 11. A +15°C temperature coarse range window can be centered on TSET point based on the thermistor’s parameters, such as resistance, R/T curve type, tolerance and NTC slope and by adjusting a current ratio flowing through the legs of the Wheatstone bridge. Note that the TSET target temperature should be higher than the anticipated maximum ambient temperature for the application. The internal current sensing circuitry provides the ability to control and adjust the power dissipated in the P-MOSFET through the Current Sense Register, Reg.01h[7:3]. This function allows for adjusting the initial turn on heating curve and protects from over-heating of the P-MOSFET. An external current sensing resistor RSENSE, serial with the P-MOSFET, is required. A current limit can be selected for the chosen RSENSE. It should have an effective voltage drop from 200mV to 1750mV and be inside the safe operating area of the MOSFET. A General Purpose 8-bit DAC, GP DAC provides a programmable voltage output VDAC through the General Purpose DAC Register, Reg.04h[7:0]. The output swing of General Purpose DAC can be set through the Gain Control bit in Reg.03h[6] or totally disabled by resetting the DAC Enable Bit in Reg.03h[7]. Memory Map The are two types of memory banks in the chip; volatile (RAM) and non-volatile (EEPROM). Volatile registers from address 00h to 07h are identical to non-volatile registers in terms of the register’s name and bit definitions. All the data is recalled from non-volatile registers and maintained in the volatile registers at power-up. It is possible to do independent write/read to the volatile and non-volatile banks after power-up by setting NV bit in the Control/Status Register, Reg.08h[7]. Note that the data written to the non-volatile registers will be automatically written to corresponding volatile registers, however no direct reading from non-volatile registers is possible. All the readings are from corresponding volatile registers. The Memory Map of the chip is in Table 1. There are total of 32 system gain settings available in the Gain Control Register, Reg.03h[4:0], with 0.35dB resolution per step. The gain control allows to prevent the thermal system from oscillation by adjusting the total system gain remotely, without use of external components. 10 FN6885.0 September 3, 2010 ISL25700 TABLE 1.

The default set point is about +59°C for the 100k RTH thermistor with a temperature coefficient of -4.25%/°C at +25°C, i.e. Reg.01h[2:0] = 011b. The temperature set point can be changed to any other set point within an operational range from +40°C to +110°C, or use another type of thermistor, including different resistance value or R/T curve type (NTC slope), and then center the +15°C coarse range temperature window on that new setting based on the ratio of RINT/RTH according to Equation 1: Code K2 + K3 × --------------R INT ( T ) 255 ---------------------------------------- = -------------------------------------------K1 R TH ( setpoint ) (EQ. 1) NA NA NA NA NA BUSY 00h error stored in Reg.07h[7:0] converted to a decimal number; bit [7] represents a sign bit, 0 for “+” and 1 for “-”; –6 - 1st order temperature coefficient, α = – 1337 ×10 ppm/°C; –6 β = 5 ×10 ppm/°C2; - 2nd order temperature coefficient, T - temperature in Celsius. The K1, K2 and K3 coefficients and the thermistor value range for each Coarse Temperature setting in Reg.01h[2:0] should be taken according to Table 2. TABLE 2.

The value of internal resistor RINT can vary from part to part and depends on the package temperature. The actual RINT at temperature T can be calculated using Equation 2: R INT ( T ) = R INT ( 25 )x [ 1 + α ( T – 25 ) + β ( T – 25 ) 2 ] (EQ. 2) where: RINT(25) = 9000 + RINT abs. error x 15 - is internal resistor value at +25°C in Ohms; RINT abs. error - is a signed integer value of absolute 11 Current Sense Threshold (Reg.01h [7:3]) This register sets the current limit trip point. When the voltage applied to the ISENSE pin falls below the programmed voltage threshold, VOUT goes high, thus forming a negative feedback loop proportional to ISENSE x RSENSE.

The final temperature can be adjusted with approximately +0.07°C increment/decrement resolution per step. 12 TABLE 4. SYSTEM LOOP GAIN ADJUSTMENT FN6885.0 September 3, 2010 ISL25700 DAC Enable and Gain Control (Reg.03h [7:6]) Protocol Conventions When the DAC Enable bit, Reg.03h[7], is 0, the DAC output is disabled, regardless of Reg.04h settings. When DAC Enable bit is 1, the DAC output depends on the settings of the DAC Gain bit Reg.03[6] and Reg.04h[7:0]. Data states on the SDA line can change only during SCL LOW periods. SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are reserved for indicating START and STOP conditions (see Figure 13). On power-up of the ISL25700, the SDA pin is in the input mode. When the DAC Gain bit, Reg.03h[6], is 0, the DAC output range is from 0V to 2V, i.e. Gain = 1. When the DAC Gain bit is 1, the DAC output range is from 0V to 4V, i.e. Gain = 2. General Purpose DAC Register (Reg.04h [7:0]) This 8-bit register writes directly to the GP DAC to set the output voltage. The default setting of this register is 80h. The DAC output depends on the Gain setting in Reg.03h[6]. General Purpose Registers (Reg.05h and Reg.06h) These 8-bit General Purpose non-volatile and volatile registers can be used for application specific purposes. For example, they can be used to store calibration data or other valuable system information. RINT Absolute Error Register (Reg.07h [7:0]) This register contains the difference between the nominal value and the real value of the internal resistor RINT. The nominal value of this resistor is 9k and the voltage drop on this resistor represents the temperature setpoint. The LSB weight of the RINT absolute error is 15Ω. Refer to Equation 2 for calculation of RINT. All I2C interface operations must begin with a START condition, which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA while SCL is HIGH. The ISL25700 continuously monitors the SDA and SCL lines for the START condition and does not respond to any command until this condition is met (see Figure 13). A START condition is ignored during the power-up sequence and during internal non-volatile write cycles. All I2C interface operations must be terminated by a STOP condition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA while SCL is HIGH (see Figure 13). A STOP condition at the end of a read operation, or at the end of a write operation to volatile bytes, only places the device in its standby mode. A STOP condition during a write operation to a non-volatile byte initiates an internal non-volatile write cycle. The device enters its standby state when the internal non-volatile write cycle is completed. Control/Status Register (Reg.08h [7:0]) An ACK, Acknowledge, is a software convention used to indicate a successful data transfer. The transmitting device, either master or slave, releases the SDA bus after transmitting 8 bits. During the ninth clock cycle, the receiver pulls the SDA line LOW to acknowledge the reception of the 8 bits of data (see Figure 14). The setting of the NV bit, Reg.08h[7], determines if data is to be read or written to the non-volatile and/or volatile memory. When this bit is 0, all operation will be targeted to non-volatile memory, and the data will be copied to volatile memory simultaneously. When this bit is 1, all operation will be targeted to the volatile memory only. The default setting of the NV bit is 0. The ISL25700 responds with an ACK after recognition of a START condition, followed by a valid Identification Byte, and once again after successful receipt of an Address Byte. The ISL25700 also responds with an ACK after receiving a Data Byte of a write operation. The master must respond with an ACK after receiving a Data Byte of a read operation. The Busy bit, Reg.08h[0], is a read only bit. When “1” is read from this bit, it indicates that the non-volatile cycle is in progress. Reading from this bit eliminates getting a NACK if the host attempts to write to the non-volatile memory before the previous data is stored. A valid Identification Byte contains 0101000 in seven MSBs. The LSB is the Read/Write bit. Its value is “1” for a Read operation and “0” for a Write operation (see Table 5). I2C Serial Interface The ISL25700 supports a bidirectional bus oriented protocol. The protocol defines any device that sends data onto the bus as a transmitter and the receiving device as the receiver. The device controlling the transfer is a master and the device being controlled is the slave. The master always initiates data transfers and provides the clock for both transmit and receive operations. Therefore, the ISL25700 operates as a slave device in all applications. TABLE 5. IDENTIFICATION BYTE FORMAT 0 (MSB) 1 0 1 0 0 0 R/W (LSB) All communication over the I2C interface is conducted by sending the MSB of each byte of data first. 13 FN6885.0 September 3, 2010 ISL25700 SCL SDA START DATA STABLE DATA DATA CHANGE STABLE STOP FIGURE 13.

READ SEQUENCE 14 FN6885.0 September 3, 2010 ISL25700 Write Operation A Write operation requires a START condition, followed by a valid Identification Byte, a valid Address Byte, a Data Byte, and a STOP condition. After each of the three bytes, the ISL25700 responds with an ACK. At this time, if the Data Byte is to be written only to volatile registers, then the device enters its standby state. If the Data Byte is to be written also to non-volatile memory, the ISL25700 begins its internal write cycle to non-volatile memory. During the internal non-volatile write cycle, the device ignores transitions at the SDA and SCL pins, and the SDA output is at a high impedance state. When the internal non-volatile write cycle is completed, the ISL25700 enters its standby state (see Figure 14). The byte at address 08h determines if the Data Byte is to be written to volatile and/or non-volatile memory (see “Memory Map” on page 10). A 20ms delay is required between two consecutive writes to the non-volatile registers. Polling Method It is possible to check if the non-volatile memory write cycle is finished or is in progress by polling (reading) the BUSY bit in Control/Status Register, Reg.08h[0] (see “Control/Status Register (Reg.08h [7:0])” on page 13). The non-volatile write cycle is in progress when the BUSY bit is 1. No other write attempt is allowed when the BUSY bit is 1. The non-volatile write cycle is finished when the BUSY bit is 0. Read Operation A Read operation consists of a three byte instruction followed by one or more Data Bytes (see Figure 16). The master initiates the operation issuing the following sequence: a START, the Identification byte with the R/W bit set to “0”, an Address Byte, a second START, and a second Identification byte with the R/W bit set to “1”. After each of the three bytes, the ISL25700 responds with an ACK. Then the ISL25700 then transmits the Data Byte. The master then terminates the read operation (issuing a STOP condition) following the last bit of the Data Byte (see Figure 16). The byte at address 08h determines if the Data Bytes being read are from volatile or non-volatile memory (see “Memory Map” on page 10). Application Information In order to get the correct temperature setting, it is very important to chose an appropriate thermistor and calibrate the complete system. The following sequence describes the thermistor selection and calibration procedure. 1. Select a thermistor type and get the RT curve from manufacturer. 2. Find out a thermistor resistance at the desired temperature and select the coarse temperature range from Table 2. The thermistor value at set 15 point should be in the middle of the coarse range. Note, the coarse ranges overlap. 3. Set the Current Sense limit in Reg.01h[7:3] and System Loop Gain in Reg. 03h[4:0] as high as possible to enable fast settling yet prevent thermal oscillation. 4. Perform system calibration and fine tuning using an external temperature sensor. Thermistor Selection Chose the thermistor whose resistance at the desired temperature set point TSET will be within the range specified in Table 2. The R/T characteristics of the thermistor are usually provided by the manufacturer as a table or as a curve. For example, you are going to stabilize the temperature at TSET = +91.5°C. You decided to use a 100k NTC thermistor from Vishay, NTCS0805E3104FXT. The resistance at +91.5°C will be 8109.12Ω, according to the manufacturer data provided online at http://www.vishay.com/doc?29100. This resistance fits in the coarse temperature range settings of 001b or 002b, as per Table 2. Current Sense Resistor and MOSFET Selection The current sense resistor should be selected with consideration of system maximum power consumption, maximum current, and minimum resolution. It is recommended to select a current sense resistor in the range from 0.1Ω to 10Ω. The 0.1Ω resistor allows sensing and will limit the maximum current from 2A to 17.5A, while a 10Ω resistor allows selecting a current limit from 20mA to 175mA. The type and size of current sense resistor should have an appropriate power rating. The ISL25700 will work only with the P-type of power MOSFETs or Darlington pair. Since the driving capability is limited, it is not recommended to drive a bipolar transistor. The power MOSFET can be used as a heater inside a micro temperature chamber. System Loop Gain Setting Assemble the application circuit including ISL25700, the power MOSFET, heating element and thermistor. The System Loop Gain allows controlling thermal stability of the feedback system. In other words, current through the power MOSFET should settle fast and without oscillation when setpoint changes from one temperature to another. Settling time of the current can be monitored by oscilloscope with the current probe. Another way to determine system stability is to obtain a phase margin of the system by analyzing Bode plots. Bode plots of the gain and phase margins can be obtained by disconnecting the thermistor from RTH breaking the loop, and connecting a low frequency signal analyzer between the RTH pin and the thermistor. That will allow analysis of the system transfer function vs. frequency. Note the thermistor has to be biased with 30μA DC current from an external supply. The signal analyzer sweeps the frequency at input node (RTH) and FN6885.0 September 3, 2010 ISL25700 measures the phase change of the output node (thermistor). As a rule of thumb, phase margin should be at least 45° when the system gain reaches 0dB. It is not recommended to change the system loop gain when it is determined. Calibration Procedure Power-up the circuit and program Reg.01h[2:0] = 001b of ISL25700. Use an externally calibrated temperature sensor to measure the temperature of the thermistor. When the thermistor temperature is stabilized, it can be adjusted to the desired point by changing the Fine Temperature Control settings in Reg.02h[7:0] until the external thermometer indicates +91.5°C (for this example). The decimal FTC code can be calculated by solving for Equations 1 and 2 as follows: K1 × R INT ( T ) – K2 × R TH ( T ) × 255 Code = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------K3 × R TH ( T ) (EQ. 3) Note, the final application system temperature depends on the allowed power consumption and the level of insulation from the ambient temperature. Two different calibration point settings can be stored in General Purpose non-volatile registers. More calibrated temperature points can be stored and used as a look-up table in an external memory. 16 Placement and Layout Consideration It is recommended to place the ISL25700 and thermistor as close as possible to each other, inside the insulated area to achieve higher accuracy and keep the ground trace between the thermistor and the device as short as possible. The device ground pin and the system ground should be connected at a single point, known as the “single point ground”, preventing picking up the common ground noise into the RTH feedback pin. The ISL25700 also can be placed outside of the insulated area and far away from the thermistor, but the setpoint accuracy will decrease, due to the wide ambient temperature range. It is recommended to use a look-up table based on Equation 2 to compensate for the setpoint shift. Put a 1μF capacitor in parallel with 0.1μF decoupling capacitor close to the VDD pin. It is recommended to have a pull-up resistor of 500k or higher, or a high-pass RC filter, as shown in the “Block Diagram/Application Circuit” on page 2, to the gate of a P-MOSFET in order to prevent a high current spike through the MOSFET at power-up. The time constant of the high-pass filter should be in the range of 1μs to 20μs.
