Description Figure 5 shows the block diagram of the SPDPXXD28-1 series. It uses a low-power triple channel digital isolator Si8431 device for digital I/O. These are CMOS devices that employ an RF coupler to transmit digital information across an isolation barrier. Very high speed operation at low power levels is achieved. The operation of a Si8431 channel is analogous to that of an opto coupler, except an RF carrier is modulated instead of light. This simple architecture provides a robust isolated data path and requires no special considerations or initialization at start-up. A channel consists of an RF Transmitter and RF Receiver separated by a semiconductor-based isolation barrier. Transmitter input modulates the carrier provided by an RF oscillator using on/off keying. The Receiver contains a demodulator that decodes the input state according to its RF energy content and applies the result to the output via the output driver. This RF on/off keying scheme is superior to pulse code schemes as it provides best-in-class noise immunity, low power consumption, and better immunity to magnetic fields. The block labeled “Control & Protection Circuitry” gets power from the DC-DC converter and is referenced to the output of the SSPC. This block contains an amplifier to gain up the voltage developed across the sense resistor. It also contains a microcontroller with on-board timers, A/D converter, clock generator and independent watchdog timer. The microcontroller implements a precision I2t protection curve as well as an Instant Trip function to protect the wiring and to protect itself. It performs all of the functions of multiple analog comparators and discrete logic in one high-reliability component. The “Control & Protection Circuitry” block also has the ability to adjust the current rating of each model of the SPDPXXD28-1 Series over a 5:1 range. If the “Gain” terminal is left open, the SSPC will be set for maximum rating. If the “Gain” terminal is connected directly to the “Gain Return” terminal, the SSPC will be set for 1/5 of the maximum rating. Furthermore, a resistor connected between the “Gain” terminal and the “Gain Return” terminal will set a rating between maximum and 1/5 of maximum. See Figure 10 for the relationship between rating and resistor value. The code programmed in the microcontroller acquires the output of the internal A/D converter, squares the result and applies it to a simulated RC circuit. It checks the output of the simulated circuit to determine whether or not to trip (turn off the power Mosfets). Because the microcontroller simulates an analog RC circuit, the SSPC has ‘thermal memory’. That is, it trips faster if there had been current flowing prior to the overload than if there hadn’t been current flowing. This behavior imitates thermal circuit breakers and better protects the application’s wiring since the wiring cannot take as much an overload if current had been flowing prior to the overload. The watchdog timer operates from its own internal clock so a failure of the main clock will not stop the watchdog timer. The code programmed in the microcontroller will periodically reset the watchdog timer preventing it from timing out. If the code malfunctions for any reason, the watchdog timer is not reset and it times out. When the watchdog timer times out, it resets the microcontroller. Since the code is designed to detect levels and not edges, the output of the module, and therefore the output of the SPDPXXD28-1, immediately reflects the command on its input. The Power Mosfets used in the SPDPXXD28-1 Series have been selected for very low Rds(on) and results in low voltage drop and low power dissipation. In most applications, the SPDPXXD28-1 will be operated at 50 – 60% of rated current to provide a safety margin. As can be seen in Table 1, when the SPDP25D28-1 is operated at 15 Amps, 60% of rated current, it only dissipates 1.0 Watt at room temperature. No heat sinking is required for this condition. However, if the SPDP25D28-1 is to be operated at maximum rating and/or at elevated temperatures, the dissipation can exceed 4 Watts and heat sinking is required. Some heat sinking can be accomplished by adding copper area to the LINE and LOAD pins, a heatsink can be epoxy attached to the surface of the module or a flat copper or aluminum heatsink can be sandwiched between the SPDP25D28-1 and the printed circuit board using a thermal pad to maximize heat transfer. Each application should be evaluated at maximum expected constant current. The lower current models in the SPDPXXD28-1 Series do not require heat sinking under all conditions. ©2010 Sensitron Semiconductor • 221 West Industry Court • Deer Park, NY 11729-4681 Phone (631) 586 7600 Fax (631) 242 9798 • www.sensitron.com • [email protected] • Page 8 SENSITRON SEMICONDUCTOR SPDPXXD28-1 SERIES TECHNICAL DATA DATASHEET 5186, Rev For overloads, no heat sinking is required provided the SPDPXXD28-1 Series is allowed some time to cool down. The SPDPXXD28-1 has sufficient thermal mass that the temperature will rise only a few degrees under the worst-case overload. Repetitive overloads should be avoided. When the SPDPXXD28-1 reports a trip condition, the controller driving the SPDPXXD28-1 should allow no more than four repetitions and then allow thirty seconds to cool down before trying to turn on again. The SPDPXXD28-1 will trip on overloads in the ALWAYS TRIP region shown in Figure 1 and will never trip when in the NEVER TRIP region. The SPDPXXD28-1 can be reset by bringing the CONTROL pin to a logic low. When the CONTROL pin is brought back to logic high, the SPDPXXD28-1 will turn back on. If the overload is still present, the SPDPXXD28-1 will trip again. Cycling the 5 Volt BIAS power will also reset the SPDPXXD28-1. If the CONTROL pin is at logic high when the BIAS power is cycled, the SPDPXXD28-1 will turn back on when the BIAS power is re-applied. Status Outputs The LOAD and GATE status outputs of the SPDPXXD28-1 show whether or not the load is drawing current and Power Mosfet switch is on. A logic high on the LOAD status output shows that the load draws < 5% of rated load and a logic low shows that the load draws > 15% of rated current. A load that draws between 5% and 15% of rated current could result in either a high or low logic level on the LOAD status output. Logic high on the GATE output indicates that the Power Mosfet switch is on while a logic low indicates that the switch is off. As can be seen in Table 6, of the 8 possible states for the combination of CONTROL, LOAD and GATE, only 3 states represent valid SSPC operation. The other 5 states indicate either a failed SSPC or, more likely, a short to ground or a short to the BIAS supply of one of the logic outputs. By comparing the CONTROL input with the LOAD and GATE outputs, the user can determine whether or not the load is supposed to be ON (GATE), whether or not it’s drawing current (GATE) and whether or not the LOAD and GATE outputs are valid responses to the CONTROL input.

This chart is for a single copper wire in free air. For an ambient temperature of 70 oC, the chart allows an 18-gauge wire to handle 25 Amps continuously at a wire temperature of 200 oC – a wire temperature rise of 130 oC. For a wire temperature limited to 150 oC, the chart requires a 16-gauge wire and for a wire temperature of 105 oC, the chart requires a 14-gauge wire. Amendment 1 of MIL-W-5088L has a table for copper wire in a bundle, group or harness with condition on the number of wires, percent of total harness capacity, etc. This table shows that a 12 gauge wire is necessary for 200 oC operation, 10-gauge for 150 oC and 8-gauge for 105 oC. ©2010 Sensitron Semiconductor • 221 West Industry Court • Deer Park, NY 11729-4681 Phone (631) 586 7600 Fax (631) 242 9798 • www.sensitron.com • [email protected] • Page 9 SENSITRON SEMICONDUCTOR SPDPXXD28-1 SERIES TECHNICAL DATA DATASHEET 5186, Rev MIL-W-5088L has various figures showing derating for harnesses as a function of the number of current carrying conductors for different altitudes. MIL-W-5088L only specifies wire for DC or RMS AC conditions, not for transient or overload conditions. MIL-W-5088L and its amendment should be consulted to determine minimum wire sizes for other currents and conditions. For transient or overload conditions, the transient or overload happens so quickly that heat is not transferred from the wire to the surroundings. The heat caused by the I2R heating of the wire causes the temperature to rise at a linear rate controlled by the heat capacity of the wire. The equation for this linear rise in temperature, with respect to time, can be solved as: I2t = constant. Every wire has an I2t rating that’s dependent on the temperature rise allowed and the diameter of the wire. If the I2t rating of the SSPC or circuit breaker is less than the I2t rating of the wire, then the SSPC or circuit breaker can protect the wire. The maximum I2t rating for the SPDP25D28-1 is 7.45 x 103 Amp2-Seconds. Every wire size in the paragraphs above has an I2t rating that exceeds the SPDP25D28-1 I2t rating for the temperature rises stated. Therefore, to select a wire size, it’s simply a matter of determining the maximum temperature rise of the application and deciding whether or not the wire will be in a bundle and use the information above. Similarly, the I2t ratings for the SPDP12D28-1 and SPDP05D28-1 are 1.72 x 103 Amp2-Seconds and 300 Amp2-Seconds, respectively. Application Connections The SPDPXXD28-1 Series may be configured as a high-side or low-side switch and may be used in positive or negative supply applications. Figure 6 – High-Side Switch, Positive Supply Figure 6 shows the connections as a high-side switch with a positive power supply. ©2010 Sensitron Semiconductor • 221 West Industry Court • Deer Park, NY 11729-4681 Phone (631) 586 7600 Fax (631) 242 9798 • www.sensitron.com • [email protected] • Page 10 SENSITRON SEMICONDUCTOR SPDPXXD28-1 SERIES TECHNICAL DATA DATASHEET 5186, Rev - Figure 7 – Low-Side Switch, Positive Supply Figure 7 shows a low-side switch with a negative power supply.

The rise and fall times will vary linearly with supply voltage. The PWRGND pin is used to control the rise and fall times. If the PWRGND pin is left open, the rise and fall times will be about 50uS. Leaving the PWRGND pin open can be useful when a faster rise or fall time is desirable. With the PWRGND pin connected as in Figures 6 through 9, the SPDPXXD28-1, when set for a 25 Amp rating, can turn on into a capacitive load of 440uF, min, 880uF, typ, without tripping for any power supply voltage within the ratings. The capacitive load capability is proportional to current rating and can be therefore easily calculated for each model and setting in the SPDPXXD28-1 Series. Wiring and Load Inductance Wiring inductance can cause voltage transients when the SPDPXXD28-1 is switched off due to an overload. Generally, these transients are small but must be considered when long wires are used on either the LINE or LOAD pins or both. A 10 foot length of wire in free air will cause a transient voltage of about 10 Volts when the SPDP25D28-1 trips at an Instant Trip level of 250 Amps. At the rated load current of 25 Amps, the voltage transient will be about 1 Volt. If longer wire lengths are used, a transient suppressor may be used at the LINE pin and a power diode may be used at the LOAD pin so that the total voltage between the LINE and LOAD pins is less than 50 Volts. When powering inductive loads, the negative voltage transient at the LOAD pin can cause the voltage between LINE and LOAD to exceed the SPDPXXD28-1 rating of 50 Volts and a power diode from the LOAD pin to ground must be used. The cathode of the power diode is connected to the LOAD pin with the anode connected to ground. The power diode must be able to carry the load current when the SPDPXXD28-1 switches off. Voltage transients due to wiring or load inductance are proportional to the operating current. ©2010 Sensitron Semiconductor • 221 West Industry Court • Deer Park, NY 11729-4681 Phone (631) 586 7600 Fax (631) 242 9798 • www.sensitron.com • [email protected] • Page 12 SENSITRON SEMICONDUCTOR SPDPXXD28-1 SERIES TECHNICAL DATA DATASHEET 5186, Rev Paralleling For example, putting two SPDP25D28-1s in parallel will not double the rating to 50 Amps. Due to differences in the Rds(on) of the Power Mosfets in the SSPCs, the current will not share equally. In addition, there are unit-tounit differences in the trip curves so that two SPDP25D28-1s in parallel may possibly trip at 35 Amps. Also, both SPDP25D28-1s will not trip together; the SPDP25D28 carrying the higher current will trip first followed by the other SPDP25D28-1. Multiple SPDP25D28-1s may be used in parallel as long as these complexities are appreciated. Due not parallel different models of this series as the current sharing will not be predictable. Board Layout The current-carrying power circuit should be kept well away from the control circuit and other low-level circuits in the system. It’s unlikely, but possible, that magnetic coupling could affect the control circuit when turning normal loads on and off. However, in the case of an overload, the magnetic coupling could be 10 times greater than with normal loads. Effects of such coupling could cause ‘chattering’ when turning on and off, oscillation, and the possibility of turning the SPDPXXD28-1 back on after an overload. The SPDPXXD28-1 Series is a Trip-Free device. Once tripped it will not turn back on until reset and commanded on again. Reset is accomplished by bringing the CONTROL pin low and turning the SSPC back on is accomplished by bringing the CONTROL pin high. Sufficient magnetic coupling between the current-carrying power circuit and the control circuit can negate the Trip-Free characteristic. MIL-STD-704F and MIL-STD-1275B These standards cover the characteristics of the electrical systems in Military Aircraft and Vehicles. The SPDPXXD28-1 Series meets all of the requirements of MIL-STD-704F including Normal, Emergency, Abnormal and Electric Starting conditions with the Ripple, Distortion Factor and Distortion Spectrum defined in the standard. The SPDPXXD28-1 Series also meets all of the requirements of MIL-STD-1275B including operation with Battery and Generator, Generator Only and Battery Only for all of the conditions described in the standard including Cranking, Surges, Spikes and Ripple. In addition, the SPDPXXD28-1 Series can withstand + 600 V spikes for 10μS. This capability is beyond that required by the standards cited above.
