DESCRIPTION
- Guaranteed precise current reporting, 2 % for ≥ 10 A
Load current. IMON offset is
current
- Can be paralleled for different power ranges
- Device temperature reporting through TMON. Highest
temperature reported when multiple TMON pins are
connected together
10 μA at 0.5 A load
The SiC32201 is a highly integrated smart OR-ing solution
featuring an advanced lossless current sensing design.
Compared to conventional designs with shunt resistors,
OR-ing MOSFETs and other discrete and ICs, the SiC32201
reduces the overall solution size and component count while
increasing power density and efficiency.
The SiC32201 integrates a 0.45 mΩ n-channel OR-ing
MOSFET, a MOSFET driver, forward and reverse voltage
detection for OR-ing control and precision current and
temperature sensing. Its internal fast reverse current
protection circuit significantly reduces the reverse current
level during the OR-ing input short fault, improving system
bus voltage stability.
• Protection and alert
- Fast response to reverse condition, 200 ns/typ. OR-ing
FET off time
- Reverse detection indicated pulling COMM1 low
- TMON pulled high, alert junction temperature is higher
than 120 °C or internal charge pump UVLO
The SiC32201 is optimized for 12 V operation. It operates
over the voltage range of 9 V to 20 V and can be paralleled
to support different power range requirements. The current
through the OR-ing switch is reported at the IMON pin. The
TMON pin reflects the highest temperature of the parallel
parts. It also flags overtemperature and insufficient OR-ing
MOSFET gate drive.
APPLICATIONS
• High availability system power
• N+1 redundant power supplies
• Telecom infrastructure
• Server and networking
The SiC32201 is available in the compact,
thermally
enhanced 6 mm x 6 mm PowerPAK® MLP66-40L package.
