U644B Flasher, 18-mW Shunt, Extremly Low Current Consumption Description The bipolar integrated circuit, U644B, is used in relaycontrolled automotive flashers where a high level EMC is required. Lamp outage is indicated by frequency doubling during hazard warning as well as direction mode. If the flasher module provides an 4-pin connector the control pin of U644B (Pin 6) can be used to operate the IC in an extremly low-current mode. Features D Frequency doubling indicates lamp outage D Frequency independent of temperature and voltage D Minimum lamp load for flasher operation: 1 W D Very low susceptibility to EMI change D Protection according to ISO TR7637/1 level 4 D Relay driver output with high current-carrying D Control input (Kl 15) capacity and low saturation voltage Ordering Information Extended Type Number U644B U644B-FP Package DIP8 SO8 Remarks Block Diagram R5 15 10 kW 30 2 Measuring comparator K 1 V S – 49 mV C1 4 K1 R4 Shunt 20 kW R1 20 kW 2 kW 3 49 a Comparator K 2 Relay 20 kW 8 5 18 mW 7 K2 Pulse generator 6 K3 49 a Comparator K 3 49 a 3.3 kW 13 kW 20 kW R3 30 V 1 GND R2 220 W GND –31 12707 Figure 1.

If the ignition is switched off, the current consumption is less than 50 A. In figure 2, Pin 6 is bridged to Pin 2, so U644B works like U6043B. Note that the resistor values of R2 and R3 are different from the U6043B (see application circuit).

Pinning 2 (6) TELEFUNKEN Semiconductors Rev. A2, 25-Feb-97 U644B Functional Description Pin 1, GND The integrated circuit is protected against damage via resistor R2 to ground (–31) in the case of battery reversal. An integrated protection circuit and the external resistances R1 and R2 limit the ac-current pulse in the IC. Pin 2, Supply voltage, VS - Power Connected directly to battery (Kl 30). Pin 3, Relay control output (driver) The relay control output is a high-side driver with a low saturation voltage and capable to drive a typical automotive relay with a minimum coil resistance of 60 W. An integrated overvoltage detection disables the output at VS 20 V to protect the lamps during jump start [ Pin 4 and 5 Oscillator Flashing frequency, f1, is determined by the R1C1 components as follows (see figure 1): 1 f1 Hz R 1 C 1 1.5 [ C 47 mF R + 6.8 kW to 510 kW where 1 1 In the case of a lamp outage (see Pin 7) the oscillator frequency is switched to the lamp outage frequency f2 with f2 2.2 f1. [ Duty cycle in normal flashing mode: 50% Duty cycle in lamp outage mode: 40% (bright phase) Pin 6, Supply voltage, control input When the IC is powered by the battery Pin 6 is the control input to switch the IC to zero current consumption during stand-by. Pin 7, Lamp outage detection The lamp current is monitored via an external shunt resistor R4 and an internal comparator K1 with its reference voltage of typ. 49 mV (VS = 12 V). The outage of one lamp out of two lamps is detected according to the following calculation: Nominal current of 1 lamp: 21 W / (VS = 12 V): Ilamp = 1.75 A Nominal current of 2 lamps: 2 x 21 W / (VS = 12 V): Ilamp = 3.5 A. The detection threshold is recommended to be set in the middle of the current range: Ioutage 2.7 A Thus the shunt resistor is calculated as: Rsh = VT (K1) / Ioutage Rsh = 49 mV/2.7 A = 18 mW. Comparator K1‘s reference voltage is matched to the characteristics of filament lamps (see “control signal threshold” in the data part). The combination of shunt resistor and resistance of wire harness prevents Pin 7 from a too high voltage in the case of shortet lamps. [ Pin 8, Start input Start condition for flashing: the voltage at Pin 8 has to be below K3 threshold (flasher switch closed). Humidity and dirt may decrease the resistance between 49 a and GND. If this leakage resistance is 5 kW the IC is still kept in its off-condition. In this case the voltage at Pin 8 is between the thresholds of comparators K2 and K3. During the bright phase the voltage at pin 8 is above the K2 threshold, during the dark phase it is below the K3 threshold. For proper start conditions a minimum lamp wattage of 1 W is required. u Absolute Maximum Ratings Reference point Pin 1 Parameters Supply voltage Surge forward current Output current Power dissipation tP = 0.1 ms tP = 300 ms tP = 300 ms Tamb = 120°C Tamb = 105°C Tamb = 60°C Tamb = 60°C TELEFUNKEN Semiconductors Rev.

Meet all present and future national and international statutory requirements. 2. Regularly and continuously improve the performance of our products, processes, distribution and operating systems with respect to their impact on the health and safety of our employees and the public, as well as their impact on the environment. It is particular concern to control or eliminate releases of those substances into the atmosphere which are known as ozone depleting substances ( ODSs). The Montreal Protocol ( 1987) and its London Amendments ( 1990) intend to severely restrict the use of ODSs and forbid their use within the next ten years. Various national and international initiatives are pressing for an earlier ban on these substances. TEMIC TELEFUNKEN microelectronic GmbH semiconductor division has been able to use its policy of continuous improvements to eliminate the use of ODSs listed in the following documents. 1. Annex A, B and list of transitional substances of the Montreal Protocol and the London Amendments respectively 2 . Class I and II ozone depleting substances in the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 by the Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) in the USA 3. Council Decision 88/540/EEC and 91/690/EEC Annex A, B and C ( transitional substances ) respectively. TEMIC can certify that our semiconductors are not manufactured with ozone depleting substances and do not contain such substances. We reserve the right to make changes to improve technical design and may do so without further notice. Parameters can vary in different applications. All operating parameters must be validated for each customer application by the customer. Should the buyer use TEMIC products for any unintended or unauthorized application, the buyer shall indemnify TEMIC against all claims, costs, damages, and expenses, arising out of, directly or indirectly, any claim of personal damage, injury or death associated with such unintended or unauthorized use.
