LM3880 Power Sequencer March 2007 LM3880 Power Sequencer General Description The LM3880 Power Sequencer offers the easiest method to control power up and power down of multiple power supplies (switchers or linear regulators). By staggering the startup sequence, it is possible to avoid latch conditions or large in-rush currents that can affect the reliability of the system. Available in a SOT23-6 package, the Power Sequencer contains a precision enable pin and three open drain output flags. Upon enabling the LM3880 the three output flags will sequentially release, after individual time delays, permitting the connected power supplies to startup. The output flags will follow a reverse sequence during power down to avoid latch conditions. Standard timing option of 30ms is available. EPROM capability allows every delay and sequence to be fully adjustable. Contact National Semiconductor if a nonstandard configuration is required.

Six independent timers are integrated to control the timing sequence (power up and power down) of three open drain output flags. These flags permit connection to either a shutdown / enable pin of linear regulators and switchers to control the power supplies’ operation. This allows a complete power system to be designed without worrying about large in-rush currents or latch-up conditions that can occur. The timing sequence of the LM3880 is controlled entirely by the enable (EN) pin. Upon power up, all the flags are held low until this precision enable is pulled high. After the EN pin is asserted, the power up sequence will commence. An internal counter will delay the first flag (FLAG1) from rising until a fixed time period has expired. Upon the release of the first flag another timer will begin to delay the release of the second flag (FLAG2). This process repeats until all three flags have sequentially been released. The three timers that control the delays are all independent of each other and can be individually programmed if needed. (See custom sequencer section). The power down sequence is the same as power-up, but in reverse. When EN pin is de-asserted a timer will begin that delays the third flag (FLAG3) from pulling low. The second and first flag will then follow in a sequential manner after their 7 appropriate delays. The three timers that are used to control the power down scheme can also be individually programmed and are completely independent of the power up timers. Additional sequence patterns are also available in addition to customizable timers. For more information see the custom sequencer section. PART OPERATION The timing sequence of the LM3880 is controlled by the assertion of the enable signal. The enable pin is designed with an internal comparator, referenced to a bandgap voltage (1.25V), to provide a precision threshold. This allows a delayed timing to be externally set using a capacitor or to start the sequencing based on a certain event, such as a line voltage reaching 90% of nominal. For an additional delayed sequence from the rail powering VCC, simply attach a capacitor to the EN pin as shown below. www.national.com LM3880 20192615 Cap Timing Using the internal pull-up current source to charge the external capacitor (CEN) the enable pin delay can be calculated by the equation below: A resistor divider can also be used to enable the LM3880 based on a certain voltage threshold. Care needs to be taken when sizing the resistor divider to include the effects of the internal current source. One of the features of the enable pin is that it provides glitch free operation. The first timer will start counting at a rising threshold, but will always reset if the enable pin is de-asserted before the first output flag is released. This can be shown in the timing diagram below: 20192617 EN Glitch If the enable signal remains high for the entire power-up seWhen this event occurs, the falling edge of enable pin resets quence, then the part will operate as shown in the standard the current timer and will allow the remaining power-up cycle timing diagrams. However, if the enable signal is de-asserted to complete before beginning the power down sequence. The before the power-up sequence is completed the part will enter power down sequence starts approximately 120ms after the a controlled shutdown. This allows the system to walk through final power-up flag. This allows output voltages in the system a controlled power cycling, preventing any latch conditions to stabilize before everything is shutdown. An example of this from occuring. This state only occurs if the enable pin is deoperation can be seen below: asserted after the completion of timer 1, but before the entire power-up sequence is completed. 20192618 Incomplete Sequence All the internal timers are generated by a master clock that mately 400 µs to timers 1 and 4 which is a result of the has an extremely low tempco. This allows for tight accuracy EPROM refresh. This refresh time is in addition to the proacross temperature and a consistent ratio between the indigrammed delay time and will be almost insignificant to all but vidual timers. There is a slight additional delay of approxithe shortest of timer delays. www.national.com 8 LM3880 CUSTOM SEQUENCER The LM3880 Power Sequencer is based on a CMOS process utilizing an EPROM that has the capability to be custom programmed at the factory. Approximately 500,000,000 different options are available allowing even the most complex system to be simply sequenced. Because of the vast options that are possible, customization is limited to orders of a certain quanTimer Options 1 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 All times listed are in milliseconds tity. Please contact National Semiconductor for more information. The variables that can be programmed include the six delay timers and the reverse sequence order. For the timers, each can be individually selected from one of the timer selector columns in the table shown below. However, all six time delays must be from the same column. Timer Options 3 0 6 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 66 72 78 84 90 Timer Options 4 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 72 80 88 96 104 112 120 Timer Options 2 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 40 44 48 52 56 60 The sequencing order for power up is always controlled by layout. The flag number translates directly into the sequence order during power up (ie FLAG1 will always be first). However, for some systems a different power down order could be required. To allow flexibility for this aspect in a design, the Power Sequencer incorporates six different options for controlling the power down sequence. These options can be seen in the timing diagrams on the next page. This ability can be programmed in addition to the custom timers. 9 www.national.com LM3880 20192619 Power Down Sequence Options www.national.com 10 LM3880 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted SOT23-6 Package NS Package Number MF06A 11 www.national.com LM3880 Power Sequencer Notes THE CONTENTS OF THIS DOCUMENT ARE PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION (“NATIONAL”) PRODUCTS.
