description
The UCC3912 family of hot swap power managers provides complete power management, hot swap capability,
and circuit breaker functions. The only component required to operate the device, other than supply bypassing,
is the fault timing capacitor, CT. All control and housekeeping functions are integrated, and externally
programmable. These include the fault current level, maximum output-sourcing current, maximum fault time,
and startup delay. In the event of a constant fault, the internal fixed 3% duty cycle ratio limits average output
power.
The internal 4-bit DAC allows programming of the fault level current from 0 A to 3 A with 0.25-A resolution. The
IMAX control pin sets the maximum sourcing current to 1 A above the fault level when driven low, and to a full
4 A when driven high for applications which require fast output capacitor charging.
When the output current is below the fault level, the output MOSFET is switched on with a nominal on resistance
of 0.15 Ω. When the output current exceeds the fault level, but is less than the maximum sourcing level, the
output remains switched on, but the fault timer starts charging CT. Once CT charges to a preset threshold, the
switch is turned off, and remains off for 30 times the programmed fault time. When the output current reaches
the maximum sourcing level, the MOSFET transitions from a switch to a constant current source. (continued)

description (continued)
The UCC3912 family is designed for unidirectional current flow, emulating an ideal diode in series with the power
switch. This feature is particularly attractive in applications where many devices are powering a common bus,
such as with SCSI Termpwr.
The UCC3912 family can be put into sleep mode drawing only 1-µA of supply current. The SHTDWN pin has
a preset threshold hysteresis which allows the user the ability to set a time delay upon startup to achieve
sequencing of power. Other features include an open drain FAULT output indicator, thermal shutdown, under
voltage lockout, and a low thermal resistance small outline package.

pin description
B0−B3: These pins provide digital input to the DAC which sets the fault current threshold. They can be used
to provide a digital soft-start, adaptive current limiting.
CT: A capacitor connected to ground sets the maximum fault time. The maximum fault time must be more than
the time to charge the external capacitance in one cycle. The maximum fault time is defined as
FAULT = 27.8 × 103 × CT. Once the fault time is reached the output will shutdown for a time given by:
TSD = 833 × 103 × CT, this equates to a 3% duty cycle.
FAULT: Open drain output which pulls low upon any condition which causes the output to open: fault, thermal
shutdown, or shutdown.
IMAX: When this pin is set to logic low the maximum sourcing current will always be 1 A above the programmed
fault level. When set to logic high, the maximum sourcing current will be a constant 4 A for applications which
require fast charging of load capacitance.

pin description (continued)
SHTDWN: When this pin is brought to a logic low, the IC is put into a sleep mode drawing typically less than
1 µA of ICC. The input threshold is hysteretic, allowing the user to program a startup delay with an external RC
circuit.
VIN: Input voltage to the UCC3912. The recommended voltage range is 3 V to 8 V. Both VIN pins should be
connected together and to the power source.
VOUT: Output voltage from the UCC3912. When switched the output voltage will be approximately
VIN − (0.15 Ω × IOUT). Both VOUT pins should be connected together and to the load.

Figure 1. Evaluation Circuit
protecting the UCC3912 from voltage transients
The parasitic inductance associated with the power distribution can cause a voltage spike at VIN if the load
current is suddenly interrupted by the UCC3912. It is important to limit the peak of this spike to less than 8 V
to prevent damage to the UCC3912. This voltage spike can be minimized by:
D Reducing the power distribution inductance (e.g., twist the positive and negative leads of the power supply
feeding VIN, locate the power supply close to the UCC3912, use a PCB ground plane,...etc.).
D Decoupling VIN with a capacitor, CIN (refer to Figure 1), located close to pins 2 and 3. This capacitor is
typically less than 1 µF to limit the inrush current.
D Clamping the voltage at VIN below 8 V with a zener diode, D1 (refer to Figure 1), located close to pins 2
and 3.

estimating maximum load capacitance
For hot-swap applications, the rate at which the total output capacitance can be charged depends on the
maximum output current available and the nature of the load. For a constant-current current-limited controller,
the output will come up if the load asks for less than the maximum available short-circuit current.
To ensure recovery of a duty-cycle from a short-circuited load condition, there is a maximum total output
capacitance which can be charged for a given unit ON time (fault time). The design value of ON or fault time
can be adjusted by changing the timing capacitor CT.
For worst-case constant-current load of value just less than the trip limit; COUT(max) can be estimated from:

The overcurrent comparator senses both the DAC output and a representation of the output current. When the
output current exceeds the programmed level the timing capacitor CT charges with 36 µA of current. If the fault
occurs for the time it takes for CT to charge up to 1.5 V, the fault latch is set and the output switch is opened.
The output remains opened until CT discharges to 0.5 V with a 1.2-µA current source. Once the 0.5 V is reached
the output is enabled and will either appear as a switch, if the fault is removed, or a current source if the fault
remains. If the over current condition is still present, then CT will begin charging, starting the cycle over, resulting
in approximately a 3% on time.

safety recommendations
Although the UCC3912 family is designed to provide system protection for all fault conditions, all integrated
circuits can ultimately fail short. For this reason, if the UCC3912 is intended for use in safety critical applications
where UL or some other safety rating is required, a redundant safety device such as a fuse should be placed
in series with the device. The UCC3912 will prevent the fuse from blowing virtually for all fault conditions,
increasing system reliability and reducing maintenance cost, in addition to providing the hot swap benefits of
the device.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time
of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such
components to meet such requirements.
