TPS2561A-Q1 Dual Channel Precision Automotive Adjustable
Current-Limited Power Switches
1 Features
3 Description
•
The TPS2561A-Q1 is dual-channel power-distribution
switch intended for automotive applications where
precision current limiting is required or heavy
capacitive loads and short circuits are encountered.
These devices offer a programmable current-limit
threshold between 250 mA and 2.8 A (typ) per
channel via an external resistor. The power-switch
rise and fall times are controlled to minimize current
surges during turn on/off.

9 Detailed Description
9.1 Overview
The TPS2561A-Q1 is a dual-channel, current-limited power-distribution switch using N-channel MOSFETs for
automotive applications where short circuits or heavy capacitive loads will be encountered. This device allows
the user to program the current-limit threshold between 250 mA and 2.8 A (typ) per channel via an external
resistor. This device incorporates an internal charge pump and gate drive circuitry necessary to drive the Nchannel MOSFETs. The charge pump supplies power to the driver circuit for each channel and provides the
necessary voltage to pull the gate of the MOSFET above the source. The charge pump operates from input
voltages as low as 2.5 V and requires little supply current. The driver controls the gate voltage of the power
switch. The driver incorporates circuitry that controls the rise and fall times of the output voltage to limit large
current and voltage surges and provides built-in soft-start functionality. Each channel of the TPS2561A-Q1 limits
the output current to the programmed current-limit threshold IOS during an overcurrent or short-circuit event by
reducing the charge pump voltage driving the N-channel MOSFET and operating it in the linear range of
operation. The result of limiting the output current to IOS reduces the output voltage at OUTx because the Nchannel MOSFET is no longer fully enhanced.

9.3 Feature Description
9.3.1 Overcurrent Conditions
The TPS2561A-Q1 responds to overcurrent conditions by limiting the output current per channel to IOS. When an
overcurrent condition is detected, the device maintains a constant output current and reduces the output voltage
accordingly. Two possible overload conditions can occur.
The first condition is when a short circuit or partial short circuit is present when the device is powered-up or
enabled. The output voltage is held near zero potential with respect to ground and the TPS2561A-Q1 ramps the
output current to IOS. The TPS2561A-Q1 devices will limit the current to IOS until the overload condition is
removed or the device begins to thermal cycle.
The second condition is when a short circuit, partial short circuit, or transient overload occurs while the device is
enabled and powered on. The device responds to the overcurrent condition within time tIOS (see Figure 10). The
current-sense amplifier is overdriven during this time and momentarily disables the internal current-limit
MOSFET. The current-sense amplifier recovers and ramps the output current to IOS. Similar to the previous case,
the TPS2561A-Q1 will limit the current to IOS until the overload condition is removed or the device begins to
thermal cycle.

TPS2561A-Q1
SLVSCC6A – MARCH 2014 – REVISED JUNE 2014
www.ti.com
Feature Description (continued)
The TPS2561A-Q1 thermal cycles if an overload condition is present long enough to activate thermal limiting in
any of the above cases. The device turns off when the junction temperature exceeds 135°C (min) while in current
limit. The device remains off until the junction temperature cools 20°C (typ) and then restarts. The TPS2561A-Q1
cycles on/off until the overload is removed (see Figure 20) .
9.3.2
FAULTx Response
The FAULTx open-drain outputs are asserted (active low) on an individual channel during an overcurrent or
overtemperature condition. The TPS2561A-Q1 asserts the FAULTx signal until the fault condition is removed and
the device resumes normal operation on that channel. The TPS2561A-Q1 is designed to eliminate false FAULTx
reporting by using an internal delay "deglitch" circuit (9-ms typ) for overcurrent conditions without the need for
external circuitry. This ensures that FAULTx is not accidentally asserted due to normal operation such as starting
into a heavy capacitive load. The deglitch circuitry delays entering and leaving current-limited induced fault
conditions. The FAULTx signal is not deglitched when the MOSFET is disabled due to an overtemperature
condition but is deglitched after the device has cooled and begins to turn on. This unidrectional deglitch prevents
FAULTx oscillation during an overtemperature event.
9.3.3 Thermal Sense
The TPS2561A-Q1 self protects by using two independent thermal sensing circuits that monitor the operating
temperature of the power switch and disable operation if the temperature exceeds recommended operating
conditions. Each channel of the TPS2561A-Q1 operates in constant-current mode during an overcurrent
conditions, which increases the voltage drop across the power switch. The power dissipation in the package is
proportional to the voltage drop across the power switch, which increases the junction temperature during an
overcurrent condition. The first thermal sensor (OTSD) turns off the individual power switch channel when the die
temperature exceeds 135°C (min) and the channel is in current limit. Hysteresis is built into the thermal sensor,
and the switch turns on after the device has cooled approximately 20°C.
The TPS2561A-Q1 also has a second ambient thermal sensor (OTSD2). The ambient thermal sensor turns off
both power switch channels when the die temperature exceeds 155°C (min) regardless of whether the power
switch channels are in current limit and will turn on the power switches after the device has cooled approximately
20°C. The TPS2561A-Q1 continues to cycle off and on until the fault is removed.
9.4 Device Functional Mode
9.4.1 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit disables the power switch until the input voltage reaches the UVLO turnon threshold. Built-in hysteresis prevents unwanted on/off cycling due to input voltage droop during turn on.
9.4.2 Enable (ENx)
The logic enables control the power switches and device supply current. The supply current is reduced to less
than 2-μA when a logic low is present on ENx. A logic high input on ENx enables the driver, control circuits, and
power switches. The enable inputs are compatible with both TTL and CMOS logic levels.

• Minimum current limit
• Maximum current limit
10.2.1.2.2 Programming the Current-Limit Threshold
The overcurrent threshold is user programmable via an external resistor, RILIM. RILIM sets the current-limit
threshold for both channels. The TPS2561A-Q1 use an internal regulation loop to provide a regulated voltage on
the ILIM pin. The current-limit threshold is proportional to the current sourced out of ILIM. The recommended 1%
resistor range for RILIM is 20 kΩ ≤ RILIM ≤ 187 kΩ to ensure stability of the internal regulation loop. Many
applications require that the minimum current limit is above a certain current level or that the maximum current
limit is below a certain current level, so it is important to consider the tolerance of the overcurrent threshold when
selecting a value for RILIM. The following equations calculates the resulting overcurrent threshold for a given
external resistor value (RILIM). The traces routing the RILIM resistor to the TPS2561A-Q1 should be as short as
possible to reduce parasitic effects on the current-limit accuracy.

10.2.1.2.5 Accounting for Resistor Tolerance
The previous sections described the selection of RILIM given certain application requirements and the importance
of understanding the current-limit threshold tolerance. The analysis focused only on the TPS2561A-Q1
performance and assumed an exact resistor value. However, resistors sold in quantity are not exact and are
bounded by an upper and lower tolerance centered around a nominal resistance. The additional RILIM resistance
tolerance directly affects the current-limit threshold accuracy at a system level. The following table shows a
process that accounts for worst-case resistor tolerance assuming 1% resistor values. Step one follows the
selection process outlined in the application examples above. Step two determines the upper and lower
resistance bounds of the selected resistor. Step three uses the upper and lower resistor bounds in the IOS
equations to calculate the threshold limits. It is important to use tighter tolerance resistors, that is, 0.5% or 0.1%,
when precision current limiting is desired.

10.2.1.2.6 Power Dissipation and Junction Temperature
The low on-resistance of the N-channel MOSFET allows small surface-mount packages to pass large currents. It
is good design practice to estimate power dissipation and junction temperature. The below analysis gives an
approximation for calculating junction temperature based on the power dissipation in the package. However, it is
important to note that thermal analysis is strongly dependent on additional system level factors. Such factors
include air flow, board layout, copper thickness and surface area, and proximity to other devices dissipating
power. Good thermal design practice must include all system level factors in addition to individual component
analysis.
Begin by determining the rDS(on) of the N-channel MOSFET relative to the input voltage and operating
temperature. As an initial estimate, use the highest operating ambient temperature of interest and read RDS(on)
from the typical characteristics graph. Using this value, the power dissipation can be calculated by:
PD = (RDS(on) × IOUT1 2) +(RDS(on) × IOUT2 2)
Where:
PD = Total power dissipation (W)
rDS(on) = Power switch on-resistance of one channel (Ω)
IOUTx = Maximum current-limit threshold set by RILIM(A)
This step calculates the total power dissipation of the N-channel MOSFET.
Finally, calculate the junction temperature:
TJ = PD × θJA + TA
Where:
TA = Ambient temperature (°C)
θJA = Thermal resistance (°C/W)
PD = Total power dissipation (W)
Compare the calculated junction temperature with the initial estimate. If they are not within a few degrees, repeat
the calculation using the "refined" RDS(on) from the previous calculation as the new estimate. Two or three
iterations are generally sufficient to achieve the desired result. The final junction temperature is highly dependent
on thermal resistance θJA, and thermal resistance is highly dependent on the individual package and board
layout. The Thermal Characteristics Table provides example thermal resistances for specific packages and board
layouts.

10.2.1.2.7 Auto-Retry Functionality
Some applications require that an overcurrent condition disables the part momentarily during a fault condition
and re-enables after a pre-set time. This auto-retry functionality can be implemented with an external resistor and
capacitor. During a fault condition, FAULTx pulls ENx low disabling the part. The part is disabled when ENx is
pulled below the turn-off threshold, and FAULTx goes high impedance allowing CRETRY to begin charging. The
part re-enables when the voltage on ENx reaches the turn-on threshold, and the auto-retry time is determined by
the resistor, capacitor time constant. The part will continue to cycle in this manner until the fault condition is
removed.

10.2.1.2.8 Two-Level Current-Limit Circuit
Some applications require different current-limit thresholds depending on external system conditions. Figure 16
shows an implementation for an externally controlled, two-level current-limit circuit. The current-limit threshold is
set by the total resistance from ILIM to GND (see previously discussed Programming the Current-Limit Threshold
section). A logic-level input enables/disables MOSFET Q1 and changes the current-limit threshold by modifying
the total resistance from ILIM to GND. Additional MOSFET/resistor combinations can be used in parallel to
Q1/R2 to increase the number of additional current-limit levels.
NOTE
ILIM should never be driven directly with an external signal.

12 Layout
12.1 Layout Guidelines
For all applications, a 0.1-µF or greater ceramic bypass capacitor between IN and GND is recommended as
close to the device as possible for local noise decoupling. This precaution reduces ringing on the input due to
power-supply transients. Additional input capacitance may be needed on the input to reduce voltage overshoot
form exceeding the absolute-maximum voltage of the device during heavy transient conditions.
• Output capacitance is not required, but placing a high-value electrolytic capacitor on the output pin is
recommended when large transient currents are expected on the output.
• The traces routing the RILIM resistor to the device should be as short as possible to reduce parasitic effects on
the current limit accuracy.
• The PowerPAD™ should be directly connected to PCB ground plane using wide and short copper trace.
