Charging Sequence Chart Start/Stop Charging The TPS65563A has an enable/disable pin for charging (CHG). The only way to start charging is to input a high-level signal into CHG (see A and C in Figure 2). This high level is latched by internal D-FF shown in Figure 2. The internal enable (ENA) signal goes up with some delay, which is specified as SW ON after CHG↑ in Switching Characteristics. This is to avoid incorrect operation with a pulsed noise at CHG. To stop charging, there are three trigger events: • Forced stop by inputting a low level at CHG (see B in Figure 4) • Automatic stop by detecting a full charge. VOUT reaches the target value (see D in Figure 4). • Protected stop by detecting an overcurrent protection (OCP) on the SW pin When the host inputs the high-level signal into CHG, the voltage of VCC and VBAT must meet the recommended range; VBAT is from 1.4 V to 12 V, VCC is from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. It is acceptable to start recharging after a forced stop controlled by CHG (see C in Figure 4). Charging Status Indication When the charging operation is complete, the TPS65563A drives the charge completion indicator pin, XFULL, to a low level. A controller can detect the status of the device as a logic signal when it is connected through a pullup resistor (R1) (see Figure 1). The only way to reset the indication at XFULL is to input a low level into CHG (see Figure 4). The XFULL output enables the controller to find the device-protected situation. If overcurrent protection (OCP) occurs, XFULL never goes to a low level when CHG is at a high level. Therefore, the controller detects OCP by measuring the time from turning CHG to a high level to turning XFULL to a low level. If the duration is longer than the maximum designed charge time, OCP occurs. 8 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2008, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): TPS65563A TPS65563A www.ti.com......................................................................................................................................................... SLVS858A – JULY 2008 – REVISED AUGUST 2008 Charging Control Figure 5 shows a timing diagram at beginning/ending. The TPS65563A provides three comparators to control the charging operation. U1 is the VFULL comparator to detect the charge completion, U2 is the VZERO comparator to detect the turn-on time of the power SW, and U3 is the IPEAK comparator to detect the turn-off time of the power SW. Figure 5. Beginning/Ending Timing While the power SW is ON, the IPEAK comparator (U3) monitors current flow through the power SW from SW to GND. When the current at SW (ISW) exceeds the threshold defined by the voltage of the I_PEAK pin (IPEAK), the power SW turns OFF. After the power SW turns OFF, the spike voltage occurs immediately because of leakage inductance at the primary side. It might cause the power SW to break. To avoid this, the leakage inductance should be reduced as much as possible. When the power SW is OFF, the magnetic energy in the transformer starts discharging from the primary side to the secondary side. During this discharge, the VZERO comparator (U2) monitors the kickback voltage at the primary side to compare it with the VBAT voltage. The kickback voltage increases rapidly until the diode placed at secondary side turns ON. The diode turns ON when the voltage of secondary side of the transformer reaches more than the voltage of the output capacitor. After the diode turns ON, the kickback voltage is almost stable until the magnetic energy at the primary side discharges completely. After the discharge stops, the small amount of energy left in the transformer is released via parasitic paths, and the kickback voltage reaches almost zero voltage. During this period, U2 makes the power SW turn ON when (VSW – VBAT) drops from VZERO. The VFULL comparator (U1) also monitors the kickback voltage. When VSW – VBAT exceeds VFULL, the TPS65563A stops the charging operation. After detection, XFULL goes to low level to indicate charge completion. After charge completion, the TPS65563A immediately goes into disable mode with the internal ENA automatically turning to a low level. The purpose is to save the consumption power.

But the current at SW always starts from negative value because of the Trr of the diode. Because of this, ON time depends on Trr. ON time is calculated by Equation 1. I PEAK TON ( n ) = Lp + Trr (n) VBAT (1) Where: TON(n) = ON time at n cycle switching Lp = Inductance of primary side IPEAK = Peak current at primary side VBAT = Battery voltage Trr(n) = Reverse recovery time at n cycle switching OFF time is dependant on output voltage. As the output voltage gets higher, OFF time gets shorter (see Equation 2). TOFF(n) = N ´ L I PEAK VOUT(n ) (2) Where: TOFF(n) = OFF time at n cycle switching N= Turn ratio of transformer VOUT(n) = Output voltage at n cycle switching Programming Peak Current The TPS65563A provides a method to program the peak primary current with a voltage applied to the I_PEAK pin. Figure 6 shows how to program IPEAK. Figure 6 shows the relationship between I_PEAK pin voltage and a peak current at the primary side. This function has the analog slope controlled by I_PEAK. The maximum voltage to control peak current at the primary side is around 1.2 V and it is acceptable to input the voltage up to VCC. Figure 6. I_PEAK Pin Voltage vs Peak Current at Primary Side 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2008, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): TPS65563A TPS65563A www.ti.com......................................................................................................................................................... SLVS858A – JULY 2008 – REVISED AUGUST 2008 Typical usages of this function are: • Setting the peak charging currents based on the battery voltage. The easiest way is to connect a resistive divider with battery voltage. This saves battery life. • Reducing peak current at the primary side when the system powers a zoom-lens motor. This avoids inadvertent shutdowns due to a large current from the battery. In Figure 1, three optional connections to I_PEAK are shown: 1. Use the controller to input PWM signal with RC filter. 2. Use a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). 3. Use a resistive divider to input a fixed value into I_PEAK. Methods 1 and 2 make it possible to delicately control peak current at the primary side. For example, set higher current during initial charging, but set lower current just before complete charging. This effectively saves the battery life. IGBT Driver Control The TPS65563A integrates an IGBT driver for flashing the xenon tube. After charge completion, the xenon tube allows turnon with the IGBT driver. If the earlier flashing is needed before charge completion, the confirmation of the lowest allowable flashing voltage to apply to the xenon tube is required. G_IGBT should be connected to the gate of IGBT as close as possible to avoid the misoperation of flashing or breaking the gate of IGBT. The output voltage of G_IGBT voltage depends on IGBT_VCC. The rise time and fall time of G_IGBT are almost the same because the TPS65563A does not include a pullup/pulldown resistor for the IGBT driver. The rise time and fall time should be met with the value specified in the data sheet of the IGBT to avoid breaking the IGBT. The IGBT drive has two logic inputs, one is flash acceptable (F_EN) and the other is flash enable (F_ON). To turn on the xenon tube, high-level signal should be inputted into both F_EN and F_ON. It is acceptable to connect both F_EN and F_ON if simple control is preferred. Protection The TPS65563A provides two protection mechanisms; thermal shutdown and overcurrent protection. Thermal Shutdown (TSD) Once the TPS65563A die temperature reaches a specific temperature, the operation is immediately latched off. To recover the operation, the TPS65563A die temperature should be lower than a specific temperature and forced to a low level at CHG if protection is needed. Overcurrent Protection (OCP) The TPS65563A has OCP at the SW pin. The TPS65563A is latched off if the SW pin is dropped to compare VBAT pin voltage during the switch ON time. The threshold is specified in Overcurrent Protection Trigger Voltage at SW in Electrical Characteristics. To recover the operation, the CHG level is forced to a low level after protection occurs and peak current is less than threshold.
