DESCRIPTION
The LM5060 high-side protection controller provides
intelligent control of a high-side N-Channel MOSFET
during normal on/off transitions and fault conditions.
In-rush current is controlled by the nearly constant
rise time of the output voltage. A power good output
indicates when the output voltage reaches the input
voltage and the MOSFET is fully on. Input UnderVoltage Lock-Out, with hysteresis, is provided as well
as programmable input Over-Voltage Protection. An
enable input provides remote On / Off control. The
programmable Under-Voltage Lock-Out input can be
used as second enable input for safety redundancy.
A single capacitor programs the initial start-up VGS
fault detection delay time, the transition VDS fault
detection delay time, and the continuous OverCurrent VDS fault detection delay time. When a
detected fault condition persists longer than the
allowed fault delay time, the MOSFET is latched off
until either the Enable input or the Under-Voltage
Lock-Out input is toggled low and then high.

Applications Information
1
SENSE
Input Voltage Sense
A constant current sink (16 μA typical) at the SENSE pin flows through an external resistor to set
the threshold for fault detection.
2
VIN
Supply Voltage Input
The operating voltage range is 5.5V to 65V. The internal power-on-reset (POR) circuit typically
switches to the active state when the VIN pin is greater than 5.1V. A small ceramic bypass
capacitor close to this pin is recommended to suppress noise.
OVP
Over-Voltage
Protection Comparator
Input
An external resistor divider from the system input voltage sets the Over-Voltage turn-off
threshold. The GATE pin is pulled low when OVP exceeds the typical 2.0V threshold, but the
controller is not latched off. Normal operation resumes when the OVP pin falls below typically
1.76V.
Under-Voltage LockOut Comparator Input
The UVLO pin is used as an input Under-Voltage Lock-Out by connecting this pin to a resistor
divider between input supply voltage and ground. The UVLO comparator is activated when EN is
high. A voltage greater than typically 1.6V at the UVLO pin will release the pull down devices on
the GATE pin and allow the output to gradually rise. A constant current sink (5.5 µA typical) is
provided to ensure the UVLO pin is low in an open circuit condition.
A voltage less than 0.8V on the EN pin switches the LM5060 to a low current shutdown state. A
voltage greater than 2.0V on the EN pin enables the internal bias circuitry and the UVLO
comparator. The GATE pin pull-up bias is enabled when both EN and UVLO are in the high
state. A constant current sink (6 µA typical) is provided to ensure the EN pin is low in an open
circuit condition.

GATE
Gate drive output
An external capacitor connected to this pin sets the VDS fault detection delay time. If the TIMER
pin exceeds the 2.0V threshold condition, the LM5060 will latch off the MOSFET and remain off
until either the EN, UVLO or VIN (POR) input is toggled low and then high.
An open drain output. When the external MOSFET VDS decreases such that the OUT pin voltage
exceeds the SENSE pin voltage, the nPGD indicator is active (low = no fault).
Connect to the output rail (external MOSFET source). Internally used to detect VDS and VGS
conditions.
Connect to the external MOSFET’s gate. A charge-pump driven constant current source (24 µA
typical) charges the GATE pin. An internal zener clamps the GATE pin at typically 16.8V above
the OUT pin. The ΔV/Δt of the output voltage can be reduced by connecting a capacitor from the
GATE pin to ground.
These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.

Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur, including in-operability and degradation of
device reliability and/or performance. Functional operation of the device and/or non-degradation at the Absolute Maximum Ratings or
other conditions beyond those indicated in the Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Operating Range conditions indicate
the conditions at which the device is functional and the device should not be operated beyond such conditions. For ensured
specifications and conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics table.
If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications.
The GATE pin voltage is typically 12V above the VIN pin when the LM5060 is enabled. Therefore, the Absolute Maximum Rating for VIN
(75V) applies only when the LM5060 is disabled, or for a momentary surge to that voltage since the Absolute Maximum Rating for the
GATE pin is also 75V.
The minimum voltage of -1V is allowed if the current is limited to below -25 mA. Also it is assumed that the negative voltage on the pins
only occur during reverse battery condition when a positive supply voltage (Vin) is not applied.
The minimum voltage of -25V is allowed if the current is limited to below -25 mA. Also it is assumed that the negative voltage on the
pins only occur during reverse battery condition when a positive supply voltage (VIN) is not applied.

Figure 21. Basic Application Circuit
Functional Description
The LM5060 is designed to drive an external high-side N-channel MOSFET. Over-Current protection is
implemented by sensing the voltage drop across the MOSFET. When an adjustable voltage drop threshold is
exceeded, and an adjustable time period has elapsed, the MOSFET is disabled. Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
and Under-Voltage Lock-Out (UVLO) monitoring of the input line is also provided. A low state on the enable pin
will turn off the N-channel MOSFET and switch the LM5060 into a very low quiescent current off state. An active
low power good output pin is provided to report the status of the N-channel MOSFET. The waiting time before
the MOSFET is turned off after a fault condition is detected can be adjusted with an external timer capacitor.
Since the LM5060 uses a constant current source to charge the gate of the external N-channel MOSFET, the
output voltage rise time can be adjusted by adding external gate capacitance. This is useful when starting up into
large capacitive loads.
POWER-UP SEQUENCE
The basic application circuit is shown in Figure 21 and a normal start-up sequence is shown in Figure 22. Startup of the LM5060 is initiated when the EN pin is above the (ENTHH) threshold (2.0V). At start-up, the timer
capacitor is charged with a 6 µA (typical) current source while the gate of the external N-channel MOSFET is
charged through the GATE pin by a 24 µA (typical) current source.
When the gate-to-source voltage (VGS) reaches the VGATE-TH threshold (typically 5V) the VGS sequence ends, the
timer capacitor is quickly discharged to 0.3V, and begins charging the timer capacitor with a11 µA current
source.
The timer capacitor will charge until either the VDS Comparator indicates that the drain-to-source voltage (VDS)
has been reduced to a nominal value (i.e. no fault) or the voltage on the timer capacitor has reached the VTMRH
threshold (i.e. fault). The VDS Comparator monitors the voltage difference between the SENSE pin and the OUT
pin. The SENSE pin voltage is user programmed to be lower than the input supply voltage by selecting a suitable
sense resistor value. When the OUT pin voltage exceeds the voltage at the SENSE pin, the nPGD pin is
asserted low (i.e. no fault) and the timer capacitor is discharged.
STATUS CONDITIONS
Output responses of the LM5060 to various input conditions is shown in Table 1. The input parameters include
Enable (EN), Under-Voltage Lock-Out (UVLO), Over-Voltage Protection (OVP), input voltage (VIN), Start-Up
Fault (VGS) and Run Fault (VDS) conditions. The output responses are the VIN pin current consumption, the
GATE charge current, the TIMER capacitor charge (or discharge) current, the GATE discharge current if the
timer capacitor voltage has reached the VTMRH threshold (typically 2V), as well as the status of nPGD.

The 2.2 mA sink current is valid for with the VIN pin ≥ 5.1V. When the VIN pin < 5.1V the sink current is lower. See ‘GATE Pin Off
Current vs. VIN’ plot in Typical Performance Characteristics.
GATE CONTROL
A charge pump provides bias voltage above the input and output voltage to enhance the N-Channel MOSFET’s
gate. When the system voltage is initially applied and both EN and UVLO are above their respective thresholds,
the GATE pin is charged by the 24 µA (typical) current source. During normal operating conditions, the GATE pin
voltage is clamped to approximately 16.8V above the OUT pin (i.e. VGS) by an internal zener.
When either the UVLO input or the EN input is low, or when VIN is below the Power-On Reset voltage of 5.10V
(typical), the GATE pin is discharged with a 2.2 mA (typical) current sink.
When the timer capacitor is charged up to the VTMRH threshold (typically 2V) a fault condition is indicated and the
gate of the external N-Channel MOSFET is discharged at a 80 mA (typical) rate . Additionally, when the OVP pin
voltage is higher than the OVPTH threshold (typically 2V) a fault is indicated and the gate of the external NChannel MOSFET is discharged at the same 80 mA (typical) rate.

FAULT TIMER
An external capacitor connected from the TIMER pin to the GND pin sets the fault detection delay time. If the
voltage on the TIMER capacitor reaches the VTMRH threshold (2V typical) a fault condition is indicated. The
LM5060 will latch off the MOSFET by discharging the GATE pin at a 80mA (typical) rate, and will remain latched
off until either the EN pin, the UVLO pin, or the VIN pin is toggled low and then high.
The block diagram of the LM5060 shows the details of the TIMER pin. There are three relevant components to
the TIMER pin’s function:
1. A constant 6 µA (typical) current source driving the TIMER pin. This current source is active when EN,
UVLO, and VIN are all high.
2. A second current source (5 µA typical) is activated, for a total charge current of 11 µA (typical), only when
the VGS sequence has completed successfully.
3. A pull-down current sink for the TIMER pin which resets the timer by discharging the timer capacitor. If EN,
UVLO or VIN is low, or when OVP is high, the timer capacitor is discharged.
(a) When the VDS Fault Comparator detects a fault, (SENSE pin voltage higher than OUT pin voltage) the
timer capacitor pull down is disabled and the timer capacitor is allowed to charge at the 11 µA (typical)
rate.
During Start-Up, the timer behaves as follows:
After applying sufficient system voltage and enabling the LM5060 by pulling the EN and UVLO pins high, the
timer capacitor will be charged with a 6 µA (typical) current source. The timer capacitor is discharged when the
voltage difference between the GATE pin and the OUT pin (i.e. VGS of the external N-Channel MOSFET)
reaches the VGATE-TH threshold (typically 5V). After discharging, the timer capacitor is charged with 11 µA until
either the VTMRH threshold (typically 2V) is reached, or the sensed VDS voltage falls below the threshold of the
VDS Fault Comparator, indicating the output voltage has reached the desired steady state level. The timer
capacitor voltage waveforms are illustrated in Figure 22, Figure 23 and Figure 24.
A timer capacitor is always necessary to allow some finite amount of time for the gate to charge and the output
voltage to rise during startup. If an adequate timer capacitor value is not used, then the 6 µA of charge current
would cause the TIMER pin voltage to reach the VTMRH fault threshold (typically 2V) prematurely and the LM5060
will latch off since a fault condition would have been indicated.
Although not recommended, the timer function can be disabled by connecting the TIMER pin directly to GND.
With this condition the TIMER pin voltage will never reach the VTMRH fault threshold (2V typical). The end result is
that the fault latch-off protection is completely disabled, while the nPGD pin will continue to reflect the VDS Fault
Comparator output.
VGS CONSIDERATIONS
The VGS Status Comparator shown in the LM5060 block diagram accomplishes two purposes:
1. As the gate of the external MOSFET is charged, the VGS voltage transitions from cut-off, through an active
region, and into the ohmic region. The LM5060 provides two fault timer modes to monitor these transitions.
The TIMER pin capacitor is initially charged with a constant 6 µA (typical) until either the MOSFET VGS
reaches the VGATE–TH threshold (typically 5V) indicating that the MOSFET channel is at least somewhat
enhanced, or the voltage on the TIMER pin reaches the VTMRH threshold (typically 2V) indicating a fault
condition. If the MOSFET VGS reaches 5V threshold before the TIMER pin reaches the typical 2V timer fault
threshold, the timer capacitor is then discharged to 300 mV, and then begins charging with 11 µA current
source while the MOSFET transitions through the active region. The lower timer capacitor charge current
during the initial start-up sequence allows more time before a fault is indicated. The turn-on time of the
MOSFET will vary with input voltage, load capacitance, load resistance, as well as the MOSFET
characteristics.
2. Figure 23 shows a start-up waveform with excessive gate leakage. The initial charge current on the timer
capacitor is 6 µA (typical), while the simultaneous charge current to the gate is 24 µA (typical). Due to
excessive gate leakage, the 24 µA is not able to charge the gate to the required typical 5V VGS threshold and
the VDS Fault Comparator will indicate a fault when the timer capacitor is charged to the VTMRH fault
threshold. When the timer capacitor voltage reaches theVTMRH fault threshold (typically 2V) the MOSFET
gate is discharged at an 80 mA (typical) rate.

VDS FAULT CONDITION
The LM5060 includes a VDS Fault Comparator that senses the voltage difference between the SENSE pin and
the OUT pin. If the voltage at the OUT pin falls lower than the voltage at the SENSE pin, the VDS Fault
Comparator will trip and switch the nPGD pin to a high impedance state. It will also initiate charging of the
capacitor on the TIMER pin with a 6 µA (typical) current source if VGS is less than than 5V, or a 11 µA (typical)
current source if VGS is higher than 5V. If the voltage on the TIMER pin reaches the typical 2V fault threshold, the
gate of the N-Channel MOSFET is pulled low with a 80 mA (typical) sink current. Figure 24 illustrates a VDS fault
condition during start-up. The nPGD pin never switches low because the VDS fault comparator detects excessive
VDS voltage throughout the entire sequence.
OVER-CURRENT FAULT
The VDS Fault Comparator can be used to implement an Over-Current shutdown function. The VDS Fault
Comparator monitors the voltage difference between the SENSE pin and the OUT pin. This is, essentially, the
same voltage that is across the N-Channel MOSFET RDS(ON) less the threshold voltage that is set by the series
resistor on the SENSE pin. The value of capacitor on the TIMER pin, the capacitor charge current (ITIMERH, 11 uA
typical), along with the TIMER pin fault threshold (VTMRH) will determine the how long the N-Channel MOSFET
will be allowed to conduct excessive current before the MOSFET is turned-off. When this delay time expires, the
gate is discharged at a 80 mA rate.
The LM5060 is intended for applications where precise current sensing is not required, but some level of fault
protection is needed. Examples are applications where inductance or impedance in the power path limits the
current rise in a short circuit condition.
The Safe Operating Area (SOA) of the external N-Channel MOSFET should be carefully considered to ensure
the peak drain-to-source current and the duration of the fault delay time is within the SOA rating of the MOSFET.
Also note that the RDS(ON) variations of the external N-Channel MOSFET will affect the accuracy of the OverCurrent detection.
RESTART AFTER OVER-CURRENT FAULT EVENT
When a VDS fault condition has occurred and the TIMER pin voltage has reached 2V, the LM5060 latches off the
external MOSFET. In order to initiate a restart, either the EN pin, the VINpin, or the UVLO pin must be toggled
low and then high.

The LM5060 Enable pin (EN) allows for remote On/Off control. The Enable pin on/off thresholds are CMOS
compatible. The external N-Channel MOSFET can be remotely switched Off by forcing the EN pin below the
lower input threshold, ENTHL (800 mV). The external N-Channel MOSFET can be remotely switched On by
forcing the EN pin above the upper input threshold, ENTHH (2.00V). Figure 25 shows the threshold levels of the
Enable pin.
When the EN pin is less than 0.5V (typical) the LM5060 enters a low current (disabled) state. The current

shown in Figure 21 with R10 and R11 sets the voltage at which the UVLO function engages. The UVLO pin may
also be used as a second enable pin for applications requiring a redundant, or secondary, shut-down control.
Unlike the EN pin function, the UVLO function does not switch the LM5060 to the low current (disabled) state.
If the Under-Voltage Lock-Out function is not needed, the UVLO pin should be connected to the VIN pin. The
UVLO pin should not be left floating as the internal pull-down will keep the UVLO active.

OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP)
The Over-Voltage Protection function will turn off the external N-Channel MOSFET if the OVP pin voltage is
higher than the OVPTH threshold (typically 2V). A resistor divider made up with R8 and R9, shown in Figure 21,
sets the Over-Voltage Protection threshold. An internal 9.6 µs timer filters the output of the Over-Voltage
Comparator to prevent noise from triggering an OVP event. An OVP event lasting longer than typically 9.6 µs will
cause the GATE pin to be discharged with an 80 mA current sink and will cause the capacitor on the TIMER pin
to be discharged.
If the Over-Voltage Protection function is not needed, the OVP pin should be connected to GND. The OVP pin
should not be left floating.
RESTART AFTER OVP EVENT
After the OVP function has been activated and the gate of the external N-Channel MOSFET has been pulled low,
the OUT pin is likely to be low as well. However, an OVP condition will not cause the VDS Fault Comparator to
latch off of the LM5060 because the capacitor on the TIMER pin is also discharged during an OVP event. After
the OVP pin falls below the lower threshold (typically 1.76V), the LM5060 will re-start as described in the normal
start-up sequence and shown in Figure 22. The EN, VIN, or UVLO pins do not need to be toggled low to high to
re-enable the MOSFET after an OVP event.
nPGD Pin
The nPGD pin is an open drain connection that indicates when a VDS fault condition has occurred. If the SENSE
pin voltage is higher than the OUT pin voltage the state of the nPGD pin will be high impedance. In the typical
application, as shown in Figure 21, the voltage at the nPGD pin will be high during any VDS fault condition. The
nPGD state is independent of the fault timer function. The resistance R4 should be selected large enough to
safely limit the current into the nPGD pin. Limiting the nPGD low state current below 5 mA is recommended.

FAULT DETECTION DELAY TIME
To allow the gate of the MOSFET adequate time to change, and to allow the MOSFET to conduct currents
beyond the protection threshold for a brief period of time, a fault delay timer function is provided. This feature is
important when drive loads which require a surge of current in excess of the normal ON current upon start up, or
at any point in time, such as lamps and motors. A single low leakage capacitor (CTIMER) connected from the
TIMER (pin 7), to ground sets the delay time interval for both the VGS status detection at start-up and for the
subsequent VDS Over-Current fault detection.
When the LM5060 is enabled under normal operating conditions the timer capacitor will begin charging at a 6 μA
(typical) rate while simultaneously charging the gate of the external MOSFET at a 24 μA (typical) rate. The gateto-source voltage (VGS) of the external MOSFET is expected to reach the 5V (typical) threshold before the timer
capacitor has charged to the VTMRH threshold (2V typical) in order to avoid being shutdown.
While VGS is less than the typical 5V threshold (VGATE-TH), the VDS start-up fault delay time is calculated from:
VDS Fault Delay =
VTIMERH x CTIMER
ITIMERL
where
•
ITMRL is typically 6 μA and VTMRH is typically 2V
(3)
If the CTIMER value is 68 nF (0.068μF) the VGS start-up fault delay time would typically be:
VDS Fault Delay = ((2V x 0.068 μF) / 6 μA) = 23 ms
(4)
When the LM5060 has successfully completed the start-up sequence by reaching a VGS of 5V within the fault
delay time set by the timer capacitor (CTIMER), the capacitor is quickly discharged to 300mV (typical) and the
charge current is increased to 11 μA (typical) while the gate of the external MOSFET is continued to be charge at
a 24 μA (typical) rate. The external MOSFET may not be fully enhanced at this point in time and some additional
time may be needed to allow the gate-to-source voltage (VGS) to charge to a higher value. The drain-to-source
voltage (VDS) of the external MOSFET must fall below the VDSTH threshold set by RS and ISENSE before the timer
capacitor has charged to the VTMRH threshold (2V typical) to avoid a fault.
When VGS is greater than the typical 5V threshold (VGATE-TH), the VDS transition fault delay time is calculated
from:
VDS Fault Delay =
(VTIMERH - VTMRL) x CTIMER
ITIMERH
where
•
•
•
ITMRH is typically 11 μA
VTMRH is typically 2V
VTMRL is typically 300 mV
(5)
If the CTIMER value is 68 nF(0.068 μF) the VDS transition fault delay time would typically be:
VDS Fault Delay = (((2V-0.3V) x 0.068 μF) / 11 μA) = 10 ms
(6)
Should a subsequent load current surge trip the VDS Fault Comparator, the timer capacitor discharge transistor
turns OFF and the 11 μA (typical) current source begins linearly charging the timer capacitor. If the surge current,
with the detected excessive VDS voltage, lasts long enough for the timer capacitor to charge to the timing
comparator threshold (VTMRH) of typically 2V, the LM5060 will immediately discharge the MOSFET gate and latch
the MOSFET off. The VDS fault delay time during an Over-Current event is calculated from:
VDS Fault Delay =
VTIMERH x CTIMER
ITIMERH
where
•
•
ITMRH is typically 11 μA
VTMRH is typically 2V
(7)
If the CTIMER value is 68 nF(0.068 μF) the VDS Over-Current fault delay time would typically be:
VDS Fault Delay = ((2V x 0.068 μF) / 11 μA) = 12 ms

SNVS628F – OCTOBER 2009 – REVISED APRIL 2013
Since a single capacitor is used to set the delay time for multiple fault conditions, it is likely that some
compromise will need to be made between a desired delay time and a practical delay time.
MOSFET SELECTION
The external MOSFET (Q1) selection should be based on the following criteria:
• The BVDSS rating must be greater than the maximum system voltage (VIN), plus ringing and transients which
can occur at VIN when the circuit is powered on or off.
• The maximum transient current rating should be based on the maximum worst case VDS fault current level.
• MOSFETs with low threshold voltages offer the advantage that during turn on they are more likely to remain
within their safe operating area (SOA) because the MOSFET reaches the ohmic region sooner for a given
gate capacitance.
• The safe operating area (SOA) of the MOSFET device and the thermal properties should be considered
relative to the maximum power dissipation possible during startup or shutdown.
• RDS(ON) should be sufficiently low that the power dissipation at maximum load current ((IL(MAX))2 x RDS(ON))
does not increase the junction temperature above the manufacturer’s recommendation.
• If the device chosen for Q1 has a maximum VGS rating less than 16V, an external zener diode must be added
from gate to source to limit the applied gate voltage. The external zener diode forward current rating should
be at least 80 mA to conduct the full gate pull-down current during fault conditions.
INPUT and OUTPUT CAPACITORS
Input and output capacitors are not necessary in all applications. Any current that the external MOSFET conducts
in the on-state will decrease very quickly as the MOSFET turns off. All trace inductances in the design including
wires and printed circuit board traces will cause inductive voltage kicks during the fast termination of a
conducting current. On the input side of the LM5060 circuit this inductive kick can cause large positive voltage
spikes, while on the output side, negative voltage spikes are generated. To limit such voltage spikes, local
capacitance or clamp circuits can be used. The necessary capacitor value depends on the steady state input
voltage level, the level of current running through the MOSFET, the inductance of circuit board traces as well as
the transition speed of the MOSFET.
Since the exact amount of trace inductance is hard to predict, careful evaluation of the circuit board is the best
method to optimize the input or output capacitance or clamp circuits.
UVLO, OVP
The UVLO and OVP thresholds are programmed to enable the external MOSFET (Q1) when the input supply
voltage is within the desired operating range. If the supply voltage is low enough that the voltage at the UVLO pin
is below the UVLO threshold, Q1 is switched off by a 2.2 mA (typical) current sink at the GATE pin, denying
power to the load. The UVLO threshold has approximately 180 mV of hysteresis.
If the supply voltage is high enough that the voltage at the OVP pin is above the OVP threshold, the GATE pin is
pulled low with a 80 mA current sink. Hysteresis is provided for each threshold. The OVP threshold has
approximately 240 mV of hysteresis.
Option A: The configuration shown in Figure 29 requires three resistors (R1, R2, and R3) to set the thresholds.

improved immunity to variations in ULVOBIAS.

can be found in the Electrical Characteristics table of this document. To calculate the UVLO lower threshold
including its hysteresis for falling VIN, use (UVLOTH-UVLOHYS) instead of UVLOTH in the formulas above. To
calculate the OVP lower threshold including hysteresis for falling VIN, use (OVPTH-OVPHYS) instead of OVPTH.

VINMAX = R1 x

R2 + R3

INPUT BYPASS CAPACITOR
Some input capacitance from the VIN pin to the GND pin may be necessary to filter noise and voltage spikes
from the VIN rail. If the current through Q1 in Figure 21 is very large a sudden shutdown of Q1 will cause an
inductive kick across the line input and pc board trace inductance which could damage the LM5060. In order to
protect the VIN pin as well as SENSE, OVP, UVLO, and nPGD pins from harm, a larger bulk capacitor from VIN
to GND may be needed to reduce the amplitude of the voltage spikes. Protection diodes or surge suppressors
may also be used to limit the exposure of the LM5060 pins to voltages below their maximum operating ratings.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
In normal operation the LM5060 dissipates very little power so that thermal design may not be very critical. The
power dissipation is typically the 2 mA input current times the input voltage. If the application is driving a large
capacitive load application, upon shutdown of the LM5060, the load capacitor may partially, or fully, discharge
back through the LM5060 circuitry if no other loads consume the energy of the pre-charged load capacitor. One
application example where energy is dissipated by the LM5060 is a motor drive application with a large capacitor
load. When the LM5060 is turned off, the motor might also turn off such that total residual energy in the load
capacitor is conducted through the OUT pin to ground. The power dissipated within the LM5060 is determined by
the discharge current of 80 mA and the voltage on the load capacitor.
LARGE LOAD CAPACITANCE
Figure 32 shows an application with a large load capacitance CL. Assume a worst case turn off scenario where
Vin remains at the same voltage as CL and RL is a high impedance. The body diode of Q1 will not conduct any
current and all the charge on CL is dissipated through the LM5060 internal circuitry. The dotted line in Figure 32
shows the path of this current flow. Initially the power dissipated by the LM5060 is calculated with the formula:
P = IGATE-FLT x VOUT
where
•
IGATE-FLT is the sink current of the LM5060 gate control
(15)
In applications with a high input voltage and very large output capacitance, the discharge current can be limited
by an additional discharge resistor RO in series with the OUT pin as shown in Figure 33. This resistor will
influence the current limit threshold, so the value of RS will need to be readjusted.

Figure 33. Current Limiting Resistor RO for Special Cases
If a RO resistor in the OUT path is used, the current sensing will become less accurate since RO has some
variability as well as the current into the OUT pin. The OUT pin current is specified in the Electrical
Characteristics section as IOUT-EN. A RO resistor design compromise for protection of the OUT pin and a
maintaining VDS sensing accuracy can be achieved. See the REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTION WITH A
RESISTOR for more details on how to calculate a reasonable RO value.
REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTION WITH DIODES
Figure 34 shows the LM5060 in an automotive application with reverse polarity protection. The second N-channel
MOSFET Q2 is used to prevent the body diode of Q1 from conducting in a reverse VIN polarity situation. The
zener diode D3 is used to limit VIN voltage transients which will occur when Q1 and Q2 are shut off quickly. In
some applications the inductive kick is handled by input capacitors and D3 can be omitted. In reverse polarity
protected applications, the input capacitors will see the reverse voltage. To avoid stressing input capacitors with
reverse polarity, a transorb circuit implemented with D3 and D2 may be used. Diode D1 in Figure 34 protects the
VIN pin in the event of reverse polarity. The resistor R1 protects the GATE pin from reverse currents exceeding
25 mA in the reverse polarity situation. This GATE resistor would slow down the shutdown of Q1 and Q2
dramatically. To prevent a slow turn off in fault conditions, D5 is added to bypass the current limiting resistor R1.

When Q1 and Q2 are turned on, R1 does not cause any delay because the GATE pin is driven with a 24 µA
current source. D6, Q3 and R2 protect Q2 from VGS damage in the event of reverse input polarity. Diodes D5
and D7 are only necessary if the output load is highly capacitive. Such a capacitive load in combination with a
high reverse polarity input voltage condition can exceed the power rating of the internal zener diode between
OUT pin and GATE pin as well as the internal diode between the OUT pin and SENSE pin. External diodes D5
and D7 should be used in reverse polarity protected applications with large capacitive loads.

REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTION WITH A RESISTOR
An alternative to using external diodes to protect the LM5060 OUT pin in the reverse polarity input condition is a
resistor in series with the OUT pin. Adding an OUT pin resistor may require modification of the resistor in series
with the SENSE pin. A resistor in series with the OUT pin will limit the current through the internal zener diode
between OUT and GATE as well as through the diode between OUT and SENSE. The value of these resistors
should be calculated to limit the current through the diode across the input terminals of the VDS fault comparator
to be no more than 4 mA. Figure 35 shows the internal circuitry relevant for calculating the values of the resistor
RO in the OUT path to limit the current into the OUT pin to 4 mA.

SNVS628F – OCTOBER 2009 – REVISED APRIL 2013
When calculating the minimum RO resistor required to limit the current into the OUT pin, the internal current
sources of 8 µA and 16 µA may be neglected. The following formulas can be used to calculate the resistor value
RO(MIN) which is necessary to keep the IO current to less than 4 mA.
Case A for situations where VOUT > VIN and reverse polarity situation is present. See Figure 35. VIN is negative,
but the voltage at the SENSE pin can roughly be assumed to be 0.0V due to the internal diode from the SENSE
pin to GND.
RO(MIN) =
VOUT - (4 mA x 1.5 k:)
4 mA
(16)
In this case, VIN also has to be limited to a negative voltage so that reverse current through the SENSE pin does
not exceed 25 mA.

Case B for situations where VOUT > VIN and there is no reverse polarity situation present. See Figure 36. VIN is
positive and VOUT is also positive, but VOUT is higher than VIN:
RO(MIN) =
(VOUT - VIN)
- (RS + 1.5 k:
4 mA
(18)
In this case the voltage on the SENSE pin should not exceed 65V.
Case C for situations where VOUT < VIN and both VIN and VOUT are positive as well. In such cases there is no risk
of excessive OUT pin current. No current limiting resistors are necessary. Both the SENSE and OUT voltages
should be limited to less than 65V.

FAULT DETECTION WITH RS AND RO
Figure 38 shows an example circuit where the OUT pin is protected against a reverse battery situation with a
current limiting resistor RO. When using resistor RO in the OUT pin path, the resistor RS has to be selected taking
the RO resistor into account. The LM5060 monitors the VDS voltage of an external N-Channel MOSFET. The VDS
fault detection voltage is the drain to source voltage threshold (VDSTH). The formula below calculates a proper RS
resistor value for a desired VDSTH taking into account the voltage drop across the RO resistor.

VOFFSET is the offset voltage between the SENSE pin and the OUT pin, ISENSE is the threshold programming

be used for VDSTH min and max calculations:
VDSTH = ISENSE x RS -
