7.8 Switching Characteristics  
The output rising slew rate is internally controlled and constant across the entire operating voltage range to ensure the turn  
on timing is not affected by the load conditions. The rising slew rate can be adjusted by adding capacitance from the dVdt pin  
to ground. As CdVdt is increased it will slow the rising slew rate (SR). See Slew Rate and Inrush Current Control (dVdt)  
section for more details. The Turn-Off Delay and Fall Time, however, are dependent on the RC time constant of the load  
capacitance (COUT) and Load Resistance (RL). The Switching Characteristics are only valid for the power-up  
sequence where the supply is available in steady state condition and the load voltage is completely discharged before the  
device is enabled. Typical values are taken at TJ = 25°C unless specifically noted otherwise. VIN = 12 V, ROUT = 500 , COUT  
= 1 mF

8 Detailed Description  
8.1 Overview  
The TPS25985x is an eFuse with integrated power switch that is used to manage load voltage and load current.  
The device starts its operation by monitoring the VDD and IN bus. When VDD and VIN exceed the respective  
Undervoltage Protection (UVP) thresholds, the device waits for the insertion delay timer duration to allow the  
supply to stabilize before starting up. Next the device samples the EN/UVLO pin and SWEN pins. A high level on  
both these pins enables the internal MOSFET to start conducting and allow current to flow from IN to OUT. When  
either EN/UVLO or SWEN is held low, the internal MOSFET is turned off.  
After a successful start-up sequence, the TPS25985x device now actively monitors its load current and input  
voltage, and controls the internal FET to ensure that the programmed overcurrent threshold is not exceeded and  
input overvoltage spikes are cut off. This action keeps the system safe from harmful levels of voltage and  
current. At the same time, a user-adjustable overcurrent blanking timer allows the system to pass transient  
peaks in the load current profile without tripping the eFuse. Similarly, voltage transients on the supply line are  
intelligently masked to prevent nuisance trips. This feature ensures a robust protection solution against real  
faults which is also immune to transients, thereby ensuring maximum system uptime.  
The device has integrated high accuracy and high bandwidth analog load current monitor, which allows the  
system to precisely monitor the load current in steady state as well as during transients. This feature facilitates  
the implementation of advanced dynamic platform power management techniques such as Intel PSYS or  
PROCHOT# to maximize system power usage and throughput without sacrificing safety and reliability.  
For systems needing higher load current support, multiple TPS25985x eFuses can be connected in parallel. All  
devices share current during start-up as well as steady-state to avoid over-stressing some of the devices more  
than others which can result in premature or partial shutdown of the parallel chain. The devices synchronize their  
operating states to ensure graceful startup, shutdown and response to faults. This makes the whole chain  
function as a single very high current eFuse rather than a bunch of independent eFuses operating  
asynchronously.  
The device has integrated protection circuits to ensure device safety and reliability under recommended  
operating conditions. The internal FET SOA is protected at all times using the thermal shutdown mechanism,  
which turns off the FET whenever the junction temperature (TJ) becomes too high for the FET to operate safely.

8.3 Feature Description  
The TPS25985x eFuse is a compact, feature rich power management device that provides detection, protection  
and indication in the event of system faults.  
8.3.1 Undervoltage Protection  
The TPS25985x implements undervoltage lockout on VDD and VIN in case the applied voltage becomes too low  
for the system or device to properly operate. The undervoltage lockout has a default internal threshold of VUVP  
on VDD and VUVPIN on VIN. Alternatively, the UVLO comparator on the EN/UVLO pin allows the undervoltage  
protection threshold to be externally adjusted to a user defined value. 8-1 and 方程式 1 show how a resistor  
divider can be used to set the UVLO set point for a given voltage supply.

The EN/UVLO pin implements a bi-level threshold.  
1. VEN > VUVLO(R): Device is fully ON.  
2. VSD(F) < VEN < VUVLO(F): The FET along with most of the controller circuitry is turned OFF, except for some  
critical bias and digital circuitry. Holding the EN/UVLO pin in this state for > tQOD activates the Output  
Discharge function.  
3. VEN < VSD(F): All active circuitry inside the part is turned OFF and it retains no digital state memory. It also  
resets any latched faults. In this condition, the device quiescent current consumption is minimal.  
8.3.2 Insertion Delay  
The TPS25985x implements insertion delay at start-up to ensure the supply has stabilized before the device tries  
to turn on the power to the load. The device initially waits for the VDD supply to rise above the UVP threshold  
and all the internal bias voltages to settle. After that, the device remains off for an additional delay of tINSDLY  
irrespective of the EN/UVLO pin condition. This action helps to prevent any unexpected behavior in the system if  
the device tries to turn on before the card has made firm contact with the backplane or if there is any supply  
ringing or noise during start-up.

8.3.3 Overvoltage Protection  
The TPS25985x implements overvoltage lockout to protect the load from input overvoltage conditions. The OVP  
comparator on the IN pin uses a fixed internal overvoltage protection threshold. If the input voltage on IN  
exceeds the OVP rising threshold (VOVP(R)), the power FET is turned OFF within tOVP. After the voltage on IN  
falls below the OVP falling threshold (VOVP(F)), the FET is turned ON in a dVdt controlled manner.

during steady-state  
4. Fast-trip response to severe overcurrent faults with an adjustable threshold (ISFT = 2 × IOCP) to quickly  
protect against severe short-circuits under all conditions, as well as a fixed threshold (IFFT) during steady  
state  
8.3.4.1 Slew rate (dVdt) and Inrush Current Control  
During hot plug events or while trying to charge a large output capacitance, there can be a large inrush current.  
If the inrush current is not managed properly, the inrush current can damage the input connectors and cause the  
system power supply to droop. This action can lead to unexpected restarts elsewhere in the system. The inrush  
current during turn-on is directly proportional to the load capacitance and rising slew rate. 方程式 2 can be used  
to find the slew rate (SR) required to limit the inrush current (IINRUSH) for a given load capacitance (CLOAD):  
I

INRUSH  
SR V/ms =  
(2)

A capacitor can be added to the DVDT pin to control the rising slew rate and lower the inrush current during turn-  
on. The required CdVdt capacitance to produce a given slew rate can be calculated using 方程3.

DVDT  
The fastest output slew rate is achieved by leaving the dVdt pin open.  
备注  
1. High input slew rates in combination with high input power path inductance can result in  
oscillations during start-up. This can be mitigated using one or more of the following steps:  
a. Reduce the input inductance.  
b. Increase the capacitance on VIN pin.  
c. Increase the dVdt pin capacitance to reduce the slew rate or increase the start-up time. TI  
recommends using a minimum start-up time of 5 ms.  
8.3.4.1.1 Start-Up Time Out  
If the start-up is not completed, that is, the FET is not fully turned on within a certain timeout interval (tSU_TMR  
)
after SWEN is asserted, the device registers it as a fault. FLT is asserted low and the device goes into latch-off  
or auto-retry mode depending on the device configuration.  
8.3.4.2 Steady-State Overcurrent Protection (Circuit-Breaker)  
The TPS25985x responds to output overcurrent conditions during steady-state by performing a circuit-breaker  
action after a user-adjustable transient fault blanking interval. This action allows the device to support a higher  
peak current for a short user-defined interval but also ensures robust protection in case of persistent output  
faults.  
The device constantly senses the output load current and provides an analog current output (IIMON) on the IMON  
pin which is proportional to the load current, which in turn produces a proportional voltage (VIMON) across the  
IMON pin resistor (RIMON) as per 方程4.

The overcurrent condition is detected by comparing this voltage against the voltage on the IREF pin as a  
reference. The reference voltage (VIREF) can be controlled in two ways, which sets the overcurrent protection  
threshold (IOCP) accordingly.

备注  
Maintain VIREF within the recommended voltage range to ensure proper operation of the overcurrent

TI recommends to add a 150-pF capacitor from IREF pin to GND for improved noise immunity.  
After an overcurrent condition is detected, that is the load current exceeds the programmed current limit  
threshold (IOCP), but stays lower than the short-circuit threshold (2 × IOCP), the device starts discharging the  
ITIMER pin capacitor using an internal 2.07-μA pulldown current. If the load current drops below the current  
limit threshold before the ITIMER capacitor discharges by ΔVITIMER, the ITIMER is reset by pulling it up to VINT  
internally and the circuit-breaker action is not engaged. This action allows short overload transient pulses to pass  
through the device without tripping the circuit. If the overcurrent condition persists, the ITIMER capacitor  
continues to discharge and after it falls by ΔVITIMER, the circuit-breaker action turns off the FET immediately. At  
the same time, the ITIMER cap is charged up to VINT again so that it is at its default state before the next  
overcurrent event. This action ensures the full blanking timer interval is provided for every overcurrent event. 方  
7 can be used to calculate the RIMON value for the desired overcurrent threshold.

备注  
1. Leave the ITIMER pin open to allow the part to break the circuit with the minimum possible delay.  
However, this makes the circuit-breaker response extremely sensitive to noise and can cause  
false tripping during load transients.  
2. Shorting the ITIMER pin to ground results in minimum overcurrent response delay (similar to  
ITIMER pin open condition), but increases the quiescent current not a recommended mode of  
operation.  
3. Increasing the ITIMER cap value extends the overcurrent blanking interval. However, it also  
extends the time needed for the ITIMER cap to recharge up to VINT before the next overcurrent  
event. If the next overcurrent event occurs before the ITIMER cap is recharged fully, it takes less  
time to discharge to the VITIMER threshold, thereby it provides a shorter blanking interval than  
intended.  
8-4 illustrates the overcurrent response for TPS25985x eFuse. After the part shuts down due to a circuit-  
breaker fault, it either stays latched off (TPS259850 variant) or restarts automatically after a fixed delay  
(TPS259851 variant).

8.3.4.3 Active Current Limiting During Start-Up  
The TPS25985x responds to output overcurrent conditions during start-up by actively limiting the current. The  
device constantly senses the current flowing through each one (IDEVICE) and provides an analog current output  
(IILIM) on the ILIM pin, which in turn produces a proportional voltage (VILIM) across the ILIM pin resistor (RILIM) as  
per 方程9.

When the load current during start-up exceeds ILIM, the device tries to regulate and hold the load current at ILIM  
.
During current regulation, the output voltage drops, resulting in increased device power dissipation across the  
FET. If the device internal temperature (TJ) exceeds the thermal shutdown threshold (TSD), the FET is turned  
off. After the part shuts down due to a TSD fault, it either stays latched off (TPS259850 variants) or restarts  
automatically after a fixed delay (TPS259851 variants). See Overtemperature protection section for more details  
on device response to overtemperature.  
备注  
The active current limit block employs a foldback mechanism during start-up based on the output  
voltage (VOUT). When VOUT is below the foldback threshold (VFB), the current limit threshold is further  
lowered.  
8.3.4.4 Short-Circuit Protection  
During an output short-circuit event, the current through the device increases very rapidly. When an output short-  
circuit is detected, the internal fast-trip comparator triggers a fast protection sequence to prevent the current from  
building up further and causing any damage or excessive input supply droop. The fast-trip comparator employs a  
scalable threshold (ISFT) which is equal to 2 × IOCP (primary device) or 2.25 × IOCP (secondary device) during  
steady-state and 1.5 × ILIM during inrush. This action enables the user to adjust the fast-trip threshold as per  
system rating, rather than using a high fixed threshold which can not be suitable for all systems. After the current  
exceeds the fast-trip threshold, the TPS25985x turns off the FET within tSFT. The device also employs a higher  
fixed fast-trip threshold (IFFT) to provide fast protection against hard short-circuits during steady-state (FET in  
linear region). After the current exceeds IFFT, the FET is turned off completely within tFFT. 8-5 illustrates the  
short-circuit response for TPS25985x eFuse.  
In some of the systems, for example blade servers and telecom equipment which house multiple hot-pluggable  
blades or line cards connected to a common supply backplane, there can be transients on the supply due to  
switching of large currents through the inductive backplane. This can result in current spikes on adjacent cards  
which can potentially be large enough to trigger the fast-trip comparator of the eFuse. The TPS25985x uses a  
proprietary algorithm to avoid nuisance tripping in such cases thereby facilitating uninterrupted system operation.

8.3.5 Analog Load Current Monitor (IMON)  
The TPS25985x allows the system to monitor the output load current accurately by providing an analog current  
on the IMON pin which is proportional to the current through the FET. The benefit of having a current output is  
that the signal can be routed across a board without adding significant errors due to voltage drop or noise  
coupling from adjacent traces. The current output also allows the IMON pins of multiple TPS25985x devices to  
be tied together to get the total current in a parallel configuration. The IMON signal can be converted to a voltage

The TPS25985x IMON circuit is designed to provide high bandwidth and high accuracy across load and  
temperature conditions, irrespective of board layout and other system operating conditions. This design allows  
the IMON signal to be used for advanced dynamic platform power management techniques such as Intel PSYS  
or PROCHOT# to maximize system power usage and platform throughput without sacrificing safety or reliability.  
8-6. Analog Load Current Monitor Response  
备注  
1. The IMON pin provides load current monitoring information only during steady-state. During  
inrush, the IMON pin reports zero load current.  
2. The ILIM pin reports the individual device load current at all times and can also be used as an  
analog load current monitor for each individual device.  
3. Care must be taken to minimize parasitic capacitance on the IMON and ILIM pins to avoid any  
impact on the overcurrent and short-circuit protection timing.  
8.3.6 Mode Selection (MODE)  
This pin can be used to configure the TPS25985x as a primary device in a chain along with other TPS25985x  
eFuses, designated as secondary devices. This feature allows some of the TPS25985x pin functions to be  
changed to aid the primary + secondary parallel connection.  
This pin is sampled at power up. Leaving the pin open configures it as a primary or standalone device.  
Connecting this pin to GND configures it as a secondary device.  
The following functions are disabled in secondary mode and the device relies on the primary device to provide  
this functionality:  
1. IREF internal current source  
2. DVDT internal current source  
3. Overcurrent detection in steady-state for circuit-breaker response  
4. PG de-assertion (pulldown) after reaching steady-state  
5. Latch-off after fault  
In secondary mode, the following functions are still active:  
1. Overtemperature protection  
2. Start-up current limit based on ILIM  
3. Active current sharing during inrush as well as steady-state  
4. Analog current monitor (IMON) in steady state

5. Steady-state overcurrent detection based on IMON. This is indicated by pulling ITIMER pin low internally, but  
does not trigger circuit-breaker action on ITIMER expiry. Rather, it relies on the primary device to start its  
own ITIMER and then trigger the circuit-breaker action for the whole chain by pulling SWEN low after the  
ITIMER expiry. However, the secondary devices use an internal overcurrent timer as a backup in case the  
primary device fails to initiate circuit-breaker action for an extended period of time. Refer to Single Point  
Failure Mitigation section for details.  
6. Each device still has individual scalable and fixed fast-trip thresholds to protect itself. The individual short-  
circuit protection threshold is set to maximum, that is 2.25 × IOCP (steady-state) or 2 × ILIM (start-up) in  
secondary mode so that the primary device can lower it further for the whole system.  
7. Individual OVP is set to maximum in secondary device so that the primary can lower it further for the whole  
system.  
8. FLT assertion based on individual device fault detection (except circuit-breaker).  
9. PG de-assertion control during inrush and assertion control after device reaches steady state. However, after  
that in steady state, the secondary device no longer controls the de-assertion of the PG in case of faults.  
10. SWEN assertion or de-assertion based on internal events as well as FET ON and OFF control based on  
SWEN pin status.  
In secondary mode, the device behavior during short-circuit and fast-trip is also altered. More details are  
available in the Short-Circuit Protection section.  
8.3.7 Parallel Device Synchronization (SWEN)  
The SWEN pin is a signal which is driven high when the FET must be turned ON. When the SWEN pin is driven  
low (internally or externally), it signals the driver circuit to turn OFF the FET. This pin serves both as a control  
and handshake signal and allows multiple devices in a parallel configuration to synchronize their FET ON and  
OFF transitions.

The SWEN is an open-drain pin and must be pulled up to an external supply.  
备注  
1. The SWEN pullup supply must be powered up before the eFuse can be turned on. TI  
recommends to use a system standby rail which is derived from the input of the eFuse.  
2. In some cases, it can be possible to use the ITIMER pin as a pullup rail for SWEN pin. Usse a  
weak pullup to ensure that the loading on the ITIMER is not high enough to affect the ITIMER  
charging and discharging time.  
In a primary + secondary parallel configuration, the SWEN pin is used by the primary device to control the on  
and off transitions of the secondary devices. At the same time, it allows the secondary devices to communicate  
any faults or other condition which can prevent it from turning on to the primary device. Refer to Fault Response  
and Indication (FLT) for more details.  
To maintain state machine synchronization, the devices rely on SWEN level transitions as well as timing for  
handshakes. This ensures all the devices turn ON and OFF synchronously and in the same manner (for  
example, DVDT controlled or current limited start-up). There are also fail-safe mechanisms in the SWEN control  
and handshake logic to ensure the entire chain is turned off safely even if the primary device is unable to take  
control in case of a fault.  
备注  
TI recommends to keep the parasitic loading on the SWEN pin to a minimum to avoid synchronization  
timing issues.  
8.3.8 Stacking Multiple eFuses for Unlimited Scalability  
For systems needing higher current than supported by a single TPS25985x, multiple TPS25985x devices can be  
connected in parallel to deliver the total system current. Conventional eFuses can not share current equally  
between themselves during steady-state due to mismatches in their path resistances (which includes the  
individual device RDSON variation from part to part, as well as the parasitic PCB trace resistance). This fact can  
lead to multiple problems in the system:  
1. Some devices always carry higher current as compared to other devices, which can result in accelerated  
failures in those devices and an overall reduction in system operational lifetime.  
2. As a result, thermal hotspots form on the board, devices, traces, and vias carrying higher current, leading to  
reliability concerns for the PCB. In addition, this problem makes thermal modeling and board thermal  
management more challenging for designers.  
3. The devices carrying higher current can hit their individual circuit-breaker threshold prematurely even while  
the total system load current is lower than the overall circuit-breaker threshold. This action can lead to false  
tripping of the eFuse during normal operation. This has the effect of lowering the current-carrying capability  
of the parallel chain. In other words, the current rating of the parallel eFuse chain must be de-rated as  
compared to the sum of the current ratings of the individual eFuses. This de-rating factor is a function of the  
path resistance mismatch, the number of devices in parallel, and the individual eFuse circuit-breaker  
accuracy.  
The need for de-rating has an adverse impact on the system design. The designer is forced to make one of  
these trade-offs:  
1. Limit the operating load current of the system to below the derated current threshold of the eFuse chain.  
Essentially, it means lower platform capabilities than are supported by the power supply (PSU).

2. Increase the overall circuit-breaker threshold to allow the desired system load current to pass through  
without tripping. As a consequence, the power supply (PSU) must be oversized to deliver higher currents  
during faults to account for the de-grading of the overall circuit-breaker accuracy.  
In either case, the system suffers from poor power supply utilization, which can mean sub-optimal system  
throughput or increased installation and operating costs, or both.  
The TPS25985x uses a proprietary technique to address these problems and provide unlimited scalability of the  
solution by paralleling as many eFuses as needed. This is incorporated without unequal current sharing or any  
degradation in accuracy.  
For this scheme to work correctly, the devices must be connected in the following manner:  
The SWEN pins of all the devices are connected together.  
The IMON pins of all the devices must be connected together. The RIMON resistor value on the combined  
IMON pin can be calculated using 方程14.

8.3.8.1 Current Balancing During Start-Up  
The TPS25985x implements a proprietary current balancing mechanism during start-up, which allows multiple  
TPS25985x devices connected in parallel to share the inrush current and distribute the thermal stress across all  
the devices. This feature helps to complete a successful start-up with all the devices and avoid a scenario where  
some of the eFuses hit thermal shutdown prematurely. This in effect increases the inrush current capability of the  
parallel chain. The improved inrush performance makes it possible to support very large load capacitors on high  
current platforms without compromising the inrush time or system reliability.  
8.3.9 Analog Junction Temperature Monitor (TEMP)  
The device allows the system to monitor the junction temperature (TJ) accurately by providing an analog voltage  
on the TEMP pin which is proportional to the temperature of the die. This voltage can be connected to the ADC  
input of a host controller or eFuse with digital telemetry. In a multi-device parallel configuration, the TEMP  
outputs of all devices can be tied together. In this configuration, the TEMP signal reports the temperature of the  
hottest device in the chain.  
备注  
1. The TEMP pin voltage is used only for external monitoring and does not interfere with the  
overtemperature protection scheme of each individual device which is based purely on the internal  
temperature monitor.  
2. TI recommends to add a capacitance of 22 pF on the TEMP pin to filter out glitches during system  
transients.  
3. The current source on the TEMP pin of TPS25985x is internally clamped to a safe value to protect  
against overload, short circuit on this pin. This can lead to incorrect temperature reporting on the  
TEMP when the number of devices connected in parallel is higher than 6. This limitation can be  
overcome by connecting an external pull-resistance on the TEMP pin.  
8.3.10 Overtemperature Protection  
The TPS25985x employs an internal thermal shutdown mechanism to protect itself when the internal FET  
becomes too hot to operate safely. When the TPS259850 detects thermal overload, it shuts down and remains  
latched-off until the device is power cycled or re-enabled. When the TPS259851 detects thermal overload, it  
remains off until it has cooled down sufficiently. Thereafter, the device remains off for an additional delay of tRST  
after which it automatically retries to turn on if it is still enabled.

FLT is an open-drain pin and must be pulled up to an external supply.  
The device response after a fault varies based on the mode of operation:  
1. During standalone or primary mode of operation (MODE = OPEN), the device latches a fault and follows the  
auto-retry or latch-off response as per the device selection. When the device turns on again, it follows the  
usual DVDT limited start-up sequence.  
2. During the secondary mode of operation (MODE = GND), if the device detects any fault, it pulls the SWEN  
pin low momentarily to signal the event to the primary device and thereafter relies on the primary to take  
control of the fault response. However, if the primary device fails to register the fault, there i a failsafe  
mechanism in the secondary device to turn off the entire chain and enter a latch-off condition. Thereafter, the  
device can be turned on again only by power cycling VDD below VUVP(F) or by cycling EN/UVLO pin below  
VSD(F)  
.
For faults that are latched internally, power cycling the part or pulling the EN/UVLO pin voltage below VSD(F)  
clears the fault and the pin is de-asserted. This action also clears the tRST timer (auto-retry variants only). Pulling  
the EN/UVLO just below the UVLO threshold has no impact on the device in this condition. This is true for both  
latch-off and auto-retry variants.  
8.3.12 Power Good Indication (PG)

After power up, PG is pulled low initially. The device initiates an inrush sequence in which the gate driver circuit  
starts charging the gate capacitance from the internal charge pump. When the FET gate voltage reaches the full  
overdrive indicating that the inrush sequence is complete and the device is capable of delivering full power, the  
PG pin is asserted HIGH after a de-glitch time (tPGA).  
The PG is de-asserted if the FET is turned off at any time during normal operation. The PG de-assertion de-  
glitch time is tPGD

The PG is an open-drain pin and must be pulled up to an external supply.  
When there is no supply to the device, the PG pin is expected to stay low. However, there is no active pulldown  
in this condition to drive this pin all the way down to 0 V. If the PG pin is pulled up to an independent supply

pin sink current, which is a function of the pullup supply voltage and resistor. Minimize the sink current to keep  
this pin voltage low enough not to be detected as a logic HIGH by associated external circuits in this condition.  
When the device is used in secondary mode (MODE = GND) in conjunction with another TPS25985 device as a  
primary device in a parallel chain, it controls the PG assertion during start-up, but after the device reaches  
steady-state, it no longer has control over the PG de-assertion. Refer to the Mode Selection (MODE) for more  
details.  
8.3.13 Output Discharge  
The device has an integrated output discharge function which discharges the capacitors on the OUT pin using  
an internal constant current (IQOD) to GND. The output discharge function is activated when the EN/UVLO is held  
low (VSD(F) < VEN < VUVLO(F)) for a minimum interval (tQOD). The output discharge function helps to rapidly  
remove the residual charge left on large output capacitors and prevents the bus from staying at some undefined  
voltage for extended periods of time. The output discharge is disengaged when VOUT < VFB or if the device  
detects a fault.  
The output discharge function can result in excessive power dissipation inside the device leading to an increase  
in junction temperature (TJ). The output discharge is disabled if the junction temperature (TJ) crosses TSD to  
avoid long-term degradation of the part.  
备注  
In a primary+secondary parallel configuration, TI recommends to hold EN/UVLO voltage below the  
VUVLO(F) threshold of the secondary device to activate output discharge for all the devices in the chain.  
8.3.14 General Purpose Comparator  
The device has a spare general purpose comparator whose inputs (CMPP, CMPM) and output (CMPOUT) are  
not connected to any internal logic, thereby allowing the user complete flexibility to use this comparator as per  
the system needs.  
The comparator can be used for various purposes. Here are a few examples:  
Adjustable fast overcurrent detect (PROCHOT#): IMON pin is connected to CMPM input and an  
appropriate reference voltage is connected to CMPP input. CMPOUT is connected to the PROCHOT# pin of  
the processor. When the load current crosses the set threshold, the CMPOUT goes low and signals the  
processor to throttle down immediately.

If undetected or unreported, these conditions can compromise system performance by not providing power to  
the load correctly or by not providing the necessary level of protection. After a FET failure is detected, the  
TPS25985x tries to turn off the internal FET by pulling the gate low and asserts the FLT pin.

D-S short: D-S short can result in a constant uncontrolled power delivery path formed from source to load,  
either due to a board assembly defect or due to internal FET failure. This condition is detected at start-up by  
checking if VIN-OUT < VDSFLT before the FET is turned ON. If yes, the device engages the internal output  
discharge to try and discharge the output. If the VOUT does not discharge below VFB within a certain allowed  
interval, the device asserts the FLT pin.  
G-D short: The TPS25985x detects this kind of FET failure at all times by checking if the gate voltage is  
close to VIN even when the internal control logic is trying to hold the FET in OFF condition.  
G-S short: The TPS25985x detects this kind of FET failure during start-up by checking if the FET G-S  
voltage fails to reach the necessary overdrive voltage within a certain timeout period (tSU_TMR) after the gate  
driver is turned ON. While in steady-state, if the G-S voltage becomes low before the controller logic has  
signaled to the gate driver to turn off the FET, it is latched as a fault.  
8.3.16 Single Point Failure Mitigation  
The TPS25985x relies on the proper component connections and biasing on the IMON, ILIM, IREF, and ITIMER  
pins to provide overcurrent and short-circuit protection under all circumstances. As an added safety measure,  
the device uses the following mechanisms to ensure that the device provides some form of overcurrent  
protection even if any of these pins are not connected correctly in the system or the associated components  
have a failure in the field.  
8.3.16.1 IMON Pin Single Point Failure  
IMON pin open: In this case, the IMON pin voltage is internally pulled up to a higher voltage and exceeds the  
threshold (VIREF), causing the part to perform a circuit-breaker action even if there is no significant current  
flowing through the device.  
IMON pin shorted to GND directly or through a very low resistance: In this case, the IMON pin voltage is  
held at a low voltage and is not allowed to exceed the threshold (VIREF) even if there is significant current  
flowing through the device, thereby rendering the primary overcurrent protection mechanism ineffective. The  
device relies on an internal overcurrent sense mechanism to provide some protection as a backup. If the  
device detects that the backup current sense threshold (IOC_BKP) is exceeded but at the same time the  
primary overcurrent detection on IMON pin fails, it triggers single point failure detection and latches a fault.  
The FET is turned off and the FLT pin is asserted.  
8.3.16.2 ILIM Pin Single Point Failure  
ILIM pin open: In this case, the ILIM pin voltage is internally pulled up to a higher voltage and exceeds the  
VIREF threshold, causing the part to engage the current limit even if there is no significant current flowing  
through the device.  
ILIM pin shorted to GND directly or through a very low resistance: In this case, the ILIM pin voltage is  
held at a low voltage and is not allowed to exceed the start-up current limit threshold even if there is  
significant current flowing through the device, thereby rendering the primary current limit mechanism  
ineffective during start-up. The device relies on an internal overcurrent detection mechanism to provide some  
protection as a backup. If the device detects that the backup overcurrent threshold (IOC_BKP) is exceeded  
but at the same time the primary overcurrent detection on ILIM pin fails, it triggers single point failure  
detection and latches a fault. The FET is turned off and the FLT pin is asserted.  
8.3.16.3 IREF Pin Single Point Failure  
IREF pin open or forced to higher voltage: In this case, the IREF pin (VIREF) is pulled up internally or  
externally to a voltage which is higher than the target value as per the recommended IOCP or ILIM calculations,  
preventing the primary circuit-breaker, active current limit, and short-circuit protection from getting triggered  
even if there is significant current flowing through the device. The device relies on an internal overcurrent  
detection mechanism to provide some protection as a backup. If the device detects that the backup  
overcurrent threshold is exceeded but at the same the primary overcurrent or short-circuit detection on ILIM  
or IMON pin fails, it triggers single point failure detection and latches a fault. The FET is turned off and the  
FLT pin is asserted.  
IREF pin shorted to GND: In this case, the VIREF threshold is set to 0 V, causing the part to perform active  
current limit or circuit-breaker action even if there is no significant current flowing through the device.

8.3.16.4 ITIMER Pin Single Point Failure  
ITIMER pin open or short to GND: In this case, the ITIMER pin is already discharged below VITIMERTHR and  
hence indicates overcurrent blanking timer expiry instantaneously after an overcurrent event and triggers a  
circuit-breaker action without any delay.  
ITIMER pin forced to some voltage higher than VITIMERTHR: In this case, the ITIMER pin is unable to  
discharge below VITIMERTHR and hence fails to indicate overcurrent blanking timer expiry, thereby rendering  
the primary circuit-breaker mechanism ineffective. The device relies on a backup overcurrent timer  
mechanism to provide some protection as a backup. If the device detects an overcurrent event on either the  
IMON pin or the backup overcurrent detection circuit, the device engages the internal backup time and after  
the timer expires (tSPFLTMR), it latches a fault. The FET is turned off and the FLT pin is asserted.

9 Application and Implementation  
备注  
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI  
does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TIs customers are responsible for determining  
suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design  
implementation to confirm system functionality.  
9.1 Application Information  
The TPS25985x is a high-current eFuse that is typically used for power rail protection applications. The device  
operates from 4.5 V to 16 V with input overvoltage and adjustable undervoltage protection. The device provides  
ability to control inrush current and offers protection against overcurrent and short-circuit conditions. The device  
can be used in a variety of systems such as server motherboards, add-on cards, graphics cards, accelerator  
cards, enterprise switches, routers, and so forth. The design procedure explained in the subsequent sections  
can be used to select the supporting component values based on the application requirements. Additionally, a  
spreadsheet design tool, TPS25985x Design Calculator is available in the web product folder.

备注  
The MODE pin is left OPEN to configure for standalone operation.  
Other variations:  
1. The IREF pin can be driven from an external reference voltage source.  
2. In a host MCU controlled system, EN/UVLO can be connected to a GPIO pin to control the device. IMON pin  
voltage can be monitored using an ADC. The host MCU can use a DAC to drive IREF to change the current  
limit threshold dynamically.  
3. The device can be used as a simple high current load switch without adjustable overcurrent or fast-trip  
protection by tying the ILIM and IMON pins to GND and leaving the IREF pin open. The inrush current  
protection, fixed fast-trip and internal fixed overcurrent protection are still active in this condition.  
4. The CMPP, CMPM, and CMPOUT pins can be used to implement adjustable OVP or PG thresholds or  
PROCHOT# or Load Handshake timer functionality as described in the General Purpose Comparator  
section.

6. IMON is connected through resistor to GND.  
7. ILIM is connected through resistor to GND.  
8. SWEN is pulled up to a 3.3-V to 5-V standby rail. This rail must be powered up independent of the eFuse.  
The secondary devices must be connected in the following manner:  
1. VDD is connected to IN through a R-C filter.  
2. MODE pin is connected to GND.  
3. ITIMER pin is left OPEN.  
4. ILIM is connected through resistor to GND.  
The following pins of all devices must be connected together:  
1. IN  
2. OUT  
3. EN/UVLO  
4. DVDT  
5. SWEN  
6. PG  
7. IMON  
8. IREF  
In this configuration, all the devices are powered up and enabled simultaneously.  
Power up: After power up or enable, all devices initially hold their SWEN low till the internal blocks are biased  
and initialized correctly. After that, each device releases its own SWEN. After all devices have released their  
SWEN, the combined SWEN goes high and the devices are ready to turn on their respective FETs at the same  
time.  
Inrush: During inrush, because the DVDT pins are tied together to a single DVDT capacitor all the devices turn  
on the output with the same slew rate (SR). Choose the common DVDT capacitor (CDVDT) as per the following  
方程17 and 方程18.

In this condition, the internal balancing circuit ensures that the load current is shared among all devices during  
start-up. This action prevents a situation where some devices turn on faster than others and experience more  
thermal stress as compared to other devices. This can potentially result in premature or partial shutdown of the  
parallel chain, or even SOA damage to the devices. The current balancing scheme ensures the inrush capability  
of the chain scales according to the number of devices connected in parallel, thereby ensuring successful start-  
up with larger output capacitances or higher loading during start-up.  
All devices hold their respective PG signals low during start-up. After the output ramps up fully and reaches  
steady-state, each device releases its own PG pulldown. Because the DVDT pins of all devices are tied together,  
the internal gate high detection of all devices is synchronized. There can be some threshold or timing  
mismatches between devices leading to PG assertion in a staggered manner. However, since the PG pins of all  
devices are tied together, the combined PG signal becomes high only after all devices have released their PG  
pulldown. This signal is sent to the downstream loads to allow power to be drawn.  
Steady-state: During steady-state, all devices share current equally using the active current sharing mechanism  
which actively regulates the respective device RDSON to evenly distribute current across all the devices in the  
parallel chain.  
Overcurrent during steady-state: The circuit-breaker threshold for the parallel chain is based on the total  
system current rather than the current flowing through individual devices. This is done by connecting the IMON  
pins of all the devices together. Similarly, the IREF pins of all devices are tied together and connected to a single  
RIREF (or an external VIREF source) to generate a common reference for the overcurrent protection block in all

the devices. This action helps minimize the contribution of IIREF variation and RIREF tolerance to the overall

During an overcurrent event, the overcurrent detection of all the devices is triggered simultaneously. This in turn  
triggers the overcurrent blanking timer (ITIMER) on each device. However, only the primary device uses the  
ITIMER expiry event as a trigger to pull the SWEN low for all the devices, thereby initiating the circuit-breaker  
action for the whole chain. This mechanism ensures that mismatches in the current distribution, overcurrent  
thresholds and ITIMER intervals among the devices do not degrade the accuracy of the circuit-breaker threshold  
of the complete parallel chain or the overcurrent blanking interval.  
However, the secondary devices also start their backup overcurrent timer and can trigger the shutdown of the  
whole chain if the primary device fails to do so within a certain interval.  
Severe overcurrent (short-circuit): If there is a severe fault at the output (for example, output shorted to  
ground with a low impedance path) during steady-state operation, the current builds up rapidly to a high value  
and triggers the fast-trip response in each device. The devices use two thresholds for fast-trip protection a  
user-adjustable threshold (ISFT = 2 × IOCP in steady-state or ISFT = 2 × ILIM during inrush) as well as a fixed  
threshold (IFFT only during steady-state). After the fast-trip, the devices enter into a latch-off fault condition till the  
device is power cycled or re-enabled or expires the auto-retry timer (only for auto-retry variants).

9.2.1 Application  
This design example considers a 12-V system operating voltage with a tolerance of ±10%. The maximum  
steady-state load current is 300 A. If the load current exceeds 330 A, the eFuse circuit must allow transient  
overload currents up to a 16-ms interval. For persistent overloads lasting longer than that, the eFuse circuit must  
break the circuit and then latch-off. The eFuse circuit must charge a bulk capacitance of 55 mF and support  
approximately 12% of the steady-state load during start-up. 9-3 shows the application schematic for this  
design example.

9.2.3 Detailed Design Procedure  
Determining the number of eFuse devices to be used in parallel  
By factoring in a small variation in the junction to ambient thermal resistance (RθJA), a single TPS25985x  
eFuse is rated at a maximum steady state DC current of 60 A with a maximum junction temperature of less  
than 125°C. Therefore, 方程22 can be used to calculate the number of devices (N) to be in parallel to  
support the maximum steady state DC load current (ILOAD(max)), for which the solution must be designed.  
I
A
OUT max  
N ≥  
(22)  
60 A  
According to 9-1, IOUT(max) is 300 A. Therefore, five (5) TPS25985 eFuses are connected in parallel.  
Setting up the primary and secondary devices in a parallel configuration  
The MODE pin is used to configure one TPS25985x eFuse as the primary device in a parallel chain along  
with the other TPS25985x eFuses as the secondary devices. As a result, some of the TPS25985 pin  
functionalities can be changed to facilitate primary and secondary configuration as described in Multiple  
Devices, Parallel Connection.  
Leaving the pin open configures the corresponding device as the primary one. For the secondary devices,  
this pin must be connected to GND.  
Selecting the CDVDT capacitor to control the output slew rate and start-up time  
For a robust design, the junction temperature of the device must be kept below the absolute maximum rating  
during both dynamic (start-up) and steady-state conditions. Typically, dynamic power stresses are orders of  
magnitude greater than static stresses, so it is crucial to establish the right start-up time and inrush current  
limit for the capacitance in the system and the associated loads to avoid thermal shutdown during start-up.

With the different combinations of loads during start-up, the total average inrush power loss (PINRUSH) can be

A capacitor (CDVDT) must be added at the DVDT pin to GND to set the required value of Tss as calculated

satisfies condition state in 方程27 and therefore capable of having a successful start-up. If 方程27 does  
not hold true, start-up loads or Tss must be tuned to prevent chances of thermal shutdown during start-up.

closest standard value of CDVDT is 33 nF with 10% tolerance and DC voltage rating of 25 V.

备注  
In some systems, there can be active load circuits (for example, DC-DC converters) with low turn-  
on threshold voltages which can start drawing power before the eFuse has completed the inrush  
sequence. This action can cause additional power dissipation inside the eFuse during start-up and  
can lead to thermal shutdown. TI recommends using the Power Good (PG) pin of the eFuse to  
enable and disable the load circuit. This action ensures that the load is turned on only when the  
eFuse has completed its start-up and is ready to deliver full power without the risk of hitting thermal  
shutdown.  
Selecting the RIREF resistor to set the reference voltage for overcurrent protection and active current  
sharing  
In this parallel configuration, the IREF internal current source (IIREF) of the primary eFuse interacts with the  
external IREF pin resistor (RIREF) to generate the reference voltage (VIREF) for the overcurrent protection and  
active current sharing blocks. When the voltage at the IMON pin (VIMON) is used as an input to an ADC to  
monitor the system current or to implement the Platform Power Control (Intel PSYS) functionality inside the  
VR controller, VIREF must be set to half of the maximum voltage range of the ISYS_IN input of the controller.  
This action provides the necessary headroom and dynamic range for the system to accurately monitor the  
load current up to the fast-trip threshold (2 × IOCP). 方程29 is used to calculate the value of RIREF  
.

In this design example, VIREF is set at 1 V. With IIREF = 25 µA (typical), we can calculate the target RIREF to be  
40 kΩ. The closest standard value of RIREF is 40.2 kΩwith 0.1% tolerance and power rating of 100 mW. For  
improved noise immunity, place a 1-nF ceramic capacitor from the IREF pin to GND.  
备注  
Maintain VIREF within the recommended voltage to ensure proper operation of overcurrent  
detection circuit.  
Selecting the RIMON resistor to set the overcurrent (circuit-breaker) and fast-trip thresholds during  
steady-state  
TPS25985x eFuse responds to the output overcurrent conditions during steady-state by turning off the output  
after a user-adjustable transient fault blanking interval. This eFuse continuously senses the total system  
current (IOUT) and produces a proportional analog current output (IIMON) on the IMON pin. This generates a  
voltage (VIMON) across the IMON pin resistor (RIMON) in response to the load current, which is defined as 方程  
30.

of RIMON is 167 Ωwith 0.1% tolerance and power rating of 100 mW. For noise reduction, place a 22-pF  
ceramic capacitor across the IMON pin and GND.

Selecting the RILIM resistor to set the current limit and fast-trip thresholds during start-up and the  
active sharing threshold during steady-state  
RILIM is used in setting up the active current sharing threshold during steady-state and the overcurrent limit  
during startup among the devices in a parallel chain. Each device continuously monitors the current flowing  
through it (IDEVICE) and outputs a proportional analog output current on its own ILIM pin. This in turn produces  
a proportional voltage (VILIM) across the respective ILIM pin resistor (RILIM), which is expressed as 方程32.

Selecting the CITIMER capacitor to set the overcurrent blanking timer  
An appropriate capacitor must be connected at the ITIMER pin to ground of the primary or standalone device  
to adjust the duration for which the load transients above the circuit-breaker threshold are allowed. The  
transient overcurrent blanking interval can be calculated using 方程38.

Where tITIMER is the transient overcurrent blanking timer and CITIMER is the capacitor connected between

nF capacitor with 10% tolerance and DC voltage rating of 25 V is used as the CITIMER for the primary device  
in this design, which results in 16.5 ms of tITIMER. The ITIMER pin for all the secondary devices should be left  
open.  
Selecting the resistors to set the undervoltage lockout threshold  
The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold is adjusted by employing the external voltage divider network of  
R1 and R2 connected between IN, EN/UVLO, and GND pins of the device as described in Undervoltage  
protection section. The resistor values required for setting up the UVLO threshold are calculated using 方程式  
39.

To minimize the input current drawn from the power supply, TI recommends using higher resistance values  
for R1 and R2. The current drawn by R1 and R2 from the power supply is IR12 = VIN / (R1 + R2). However, the  
leakage currents due to external active components connected to the resistor string can add errors to these  
calculations. So, the resistor string current, IR12 must be 20 times greater than the leakage current at the EN/  
UVLO pin (IENLKG). From the device electrical specifications, IENLKG is 0.1 µA (maximum) and UVLO rising  
threshold VUVLO(R) = 1.2 V. From the design requirements, VINUVLO = 10.8 V. First choose the value of R1 = 1  
Mand use 方程39 to calculate R2 = 125 k. Use the closest standard 1 % resistor values: R1 = 1 MΩ  
and R2 = 124 kΩ. For noise reduction, place a 1-nF ceramic capacitor across the EN/UVLO pin and GND.  
Selecting the R-C filter between VIN and VDD  
VDD pin is intended to power the internal control circuitry of the eFuse with a filtered and stable supply, not  
affected by system transients. Therefore, use an R (10 Ω) C (2.2 µF) filter from the input supply (IN pin) to  
the VDD pin. This helps to filter out the supply noises and to hold up the controller supply during severe faults  
such as short-circuit at the output. In a parallel chain, this R-C filter must be employed for each device.  
Selecting the pullup resistors and power supplies for SWEN, PG, FLT, and CMPOUT pins  
FLT, PG, and CMPOUT are the open drain outputs. If these logic signals are used, the corresponding pins  
must be pulled up to an appropriate supply rail voltage through 10-kΩpullup resistances.  
SWEN pin must be pulled up to a voltage in the range of 2.5 V to 5 V through a 100-kΩresistance.  
This pullup power supply must be generated from the input (VIN) to the eFuse and available before  
the eFuse is enabled, without which the eFuse cannot start up.  
Selection of TVS diode at input and Schottky diode at output  
In the case of a short circuit and overload current limit when the device interrupts a large amount of current  
instantaneously, the input inductance generates a positive voltage spike on the input, whereas the output  
inductance creates a negative voltage spike on the output. The peak amplitudes of these voltage spikes  
(transients) are dependent on the value of inductance in series with the input or output of the device. Such  
transients can exceed the absolute maximum ratings of the device and eventually lead to failures due to  
electrical overstress (EOS) if appropriate steps are not taken to address this issue. Typical methods for  
addressing this issue include:  
1. Minimize lead length and inductance into and out of the device.  
2. Use a large PCB GND plane.  
3. Addition of the Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes to clamp the positive transient spike at the  
input.  
4. Using Schottky diodes across the output to absorb negative spikes.

Refer to TVS Clamping in Hot-Swap Circuits and Selecting TVS Diodes in Hot-Swap and ORing Applications  
for details on selecting an appropriate TVS diode and the number of TVS diodes to be in parallel to effectively  
clamp the positive transients at the input below the absolute maximum ratings of the IN pin (20 V). These  
TVS diodes also help to limit the transient voltage at the IN pin during the Hot Plug event. Four (4) SMDJ12A  
are used in parallel in this design example.  
备注  
Maximum Clamping Voltage VC specification of the selected TVS diode at Ipp (10/1000 μs) (V)  
must be lower than the absolute maximum rating of the power input (IN) pin for safe operation of  
the eFuse.  
Selection of the Schottky diodes must be based on the following criteria:  
The non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM) of the selected diode must be more than the fast-trip  
threshold (2 × IOCP(TOTAL)). Two or more Schottky diodes in parallel must be used if a single Schottky  
diode is unable to meet the required IFSM rating. 方程40 calculates the number of Schottky diodes  
(NSchottky) that must be in parallel.

Forward Voltage Drop (VF) at near to IFSM must be as small as possible. Ideally, the negative transient  
voltage at the OUT pin must be clamped within the absolute maximum rating of the OUT pin (1 V).  
DC Blocking Voltage (VRM) must be more than the maximum input operating voltage.  
Leakage current (IR) must be as small as possible.  
Three (3) SBR10U45SP5 are used in parallel in this design example.  
Selecting CIN and COUT  
TI recommends to add ceramic bypass capacitors to help stabilize the voltages on the input and output. The  
value of CIN must be kept small to minimize the current spike during hot-plug events. For each device, 0.1 µF  
of CIN is a reasonable target. Because COUT does not get charged during hot-plug, a larger value such as 2.2  
µF can be used at the OUT pin of each device.

ZHCSOF5A MAY 2022 REVISED SEPTEMBER 2022  
In this configuration, the TPS25990x acts as the primary device and controls the other TPS25985x devices in the  
chain which are designated as secondary devices. This configuration is achieved by connecting the primary  
device as follows:  
1. VDD is connected to IN through an R-C filter.  
2. DVDT is connected through capacitor to GND.  
3. IREF is connected through capacitor to GND.  
4. IMON is connected through resistor to GND.  
5. ILIM is connected through resistor to GND.  
SWEN is pulled up to a 3.3-V to 5-V standby rail. This rail must be powered up independent of the eFuse  
ON/OFF status.  
The secondary devices must be connected in the following manner:  
1. VDD is connected to IN through a R-C filter.  
2. MODE pin is connected to GND.  
3. ITIMER pin is left OPEN.  
4. ILIM is connected through resistor to GND.  
The following pins of all devices must be connected together:  
1. IN  
2. OUT  
3. EN/UVLO  
4. DVDT  
5. SWEN  
6. PG  
7. IMON  
8. IREF  
9. TEMP  
In this configuration, all the devices are powered up and enabled simultaneously.  
The TPS25990x monitors the combined VIN, VOUT, IMON, TEMP and reports it over the PMBus telemetry  
interface.  
THE OVLO threshold is set to max value in all devices by default. For TPS25985x devices, the OV threshold  
is fixed in hardware and cannot be changed. The TPS25990x OV threshold can be lowered through PMBus  
writes to the VIN_OV_FAULT register. In this case, the TPS25990x uses the SWEN pin to turn off the  
TPS25985x devices during OV conditions.  
The UVLO threshold for all devices is set by the external resistor divider from IN to GND on the EN/UVLO  
pin. The TPS25990x UV threshold can be changed through PMBus writes to the VIN_UV_FAULT register. In  
this case, the TPS25990x uses the SWEN pin to turn off the TPS25985x devices during UV conditions.  
During inrush, the output of all the devices are ramped together based on the DVDT cap. However, the  
TPS25990x DVDT sourcing current can be configured through the PMBus to change the inrush behavior of  
the whole chain. The TPS25990x controls the DVDT ramp rate for the whole chain and secondary devices  
simply follow the ramp rate.  
Due to the inherent difference in Rdson, the current carried by the TPS25990x is lower than the TPS25985x  
devices. Accordingly, the start-up current limit threshold and active current sharing threshold for the  
TPS25990x has to be set to a relatively lower value as compared to all the TPS25985x devices by  
connecting a proportionately higher ILIM resistor.  
The TPS25990x controls the overall overcurrent threshold of the parallel chain by setting the VIREF threshold  
voltage using its internal DAC. The VIREF voltage can be programmed through PMBus to change the  
overcurrent threshold.  
The TPS25990x controls the transient overcurrent blanking interval (tOC_TIMER) for the whole system through  
PMBus writes to the OC_TIMER register. After the digital timer expires, the TPS25990x pulls the SWEN pin  
low to signal all devices to break the circuit simultaneously.

The system Power Good (PG) indication is a combination of all the individual device PG indications. All the  
devices hold their respective PG pins low till their power FET is fully turned on. After all devices have reached  
steady-state, they release their respective PG pin pulldown and the PG signal for the whole chain is asserted  
high. The TPS25985x secondary devices have control over the system PG assertion only during startup.  
After in steady state, only the TPS25990x controls the de-assertion of the PG based on the VOUT_PGTH  
register setting.  
The fault indication (FLT) for the whole system is provided by TPS25990x. However, each secondary device  
also asserts its own FLT independently.  
Power up: After power up or enable, all the eFuse devices initially hold their SWEN low till the internal blocks  
are biased and initialized correctly. After that, each device releases its own SWEN. After all devices have  
released their SWEN, the combined SWEN goes high and the devices are ready to turn on their respective FETs  
at the same time.  
Inrush: During inrush, because the DVDT pins are tied together to a single DVDT capacitor all the devices turn  
on the output with the same slew rate (SR). Choose the common DVDT capacitor (CDVDT) as per 方程式 41 and  
方程42.

Refer to TPS25990x for more details.  
The internal balancing circuits ensure that the load current is shared among all devices during start-up. This  
action prevents a situation where some devices turn on faster than others and experience more thermal stress  
as compared to other devices. This can potentially result in premature or partial shutdown of the parallel chain,  
or even SOA damage to the devices. The current balancing scheme ensures the inrush capability of the chain  
scales according to the number of devices connected in parallel, thereby ensuring successful start-up with larger  
output capacitances or higher loading during start-up. All devices hold their respective PG signals low during  
start-up. After the output ramps up fully and reaches steady-state, each device releases its own PG pulldown.  
Because the DVDT pins of all devices are tied together, the internal gate high detection of all devices is  
synchronized. There can be some threshold or timing mismatches between devices leading to PG assertion in a  
staggered manner. However, because the PG pins of all devices are tied together, the combined PG signal  
becomes high only after all devices have released their PG pulldown. This signals the downstream load that it is  
okay to draw power.  
Steady-state: During steady-state, all devices share current nearly equally using the active current sharing  
mechanism which actively regulates the respective device RDSON to evenly distribute current across all the  
devices in the parallel chain. After PG is asserted, de-assertion is controlled only by TPS25990x and based on  
VOUT_PGTH register setting.  
备注  
The TPS25990x current can be slightly higher as compared to TPS25985x higher owing to its higher  
on-resistance. This current is fine as long as the steady-state current does not exceed the  
recommended maximum continuous rating for the device.  
Overcurrent during steady-state: The circuit-breaker threshold for the parallel chain is based on the total  
system current rather than the current flowing through individual devices. This is done by connecting the IMON  
pins of all the devices together to a single resistor (RIMON) to GND. Similarly, the IREF pins of all devices are tied  
together and TPS25990x uses internal programmable DAC (VIREF) to generate a common reference for the  
overcurrent protection block in all the devices. This action helps minimize the contribution of VIREF variation to  
the overall mismatch in overcurrent threshold between devices.  
In this case, choose the RIMON as per the following Equation 16:

Where N = number of devices in parallel chain (1 × TPS25990x + (N - 1) × TPS25985x)  
Other variations: The IREF pin can be driven from an external precision voltage reference.  
During an overcurrent event, the overcurrent detection of all the devices is triggered simultaneously. This in turn  
triggers the overcurrent blanking timer (OC_TIMER) in TPS25990x. The TPS25990x uses the OC_TIMER expiry  
event as a trigger to pull the SWEN low for all the devices, thereby initiating the circuit-breaker action for the  
whole chain at the same time. This mechanism ensures that mismatches in the current distribution, overcurrent  
thresholds and OC_TIMER intervals among the devices do not degrade the accuracy of the circuit-breaker  
threshold of the complete parallel chain or the overcurrent blanking interval. However, the secondary devices  
also maintain their backup overcurrent timer and can trigger the shutdown of the whole chain if the primary  
device fails to do so within a certain interval.  
Severe overcurrent (short-circuit): If there is a severe fault at the output (for example, output shorted to  
ground with a low impedance path), the current builds up rapidly to a high value and triggers the fast-trip  
response in each device. The devices use two thresholds for fast-trip protection a user-adjustable threshold  
(ISFT = 2 × IOCP in steady-state or ISFT = 1.5 × ILIM during inrush) as well as a fixed threshold (IFFT only during  
steady-state). After the fast-trip, the TPS25990x relies on the SC_RETRY config bit in the DEVICE_CONFIG  
register to determine if the whole chain enters a latched fault or performs a fast recovery by restarting in current  
limit manner. If it enters a latched fault, the devices remain latched off till the device is power cycled or re-  
enabled, or auto-retry with a delay based on the RETRY_CONFIG register setting.

9.5 What to Do and What Not to Do  
TPS25985x needs the SWEN pin to be pulled up to a supply rail which is powered up before the device is  
enabled. Failing this, the device is not able to turn on the output. The SWEN pullup supply must not be derived  
from the output of the eFuse. Use one of the following options to derive the pullup supply rail for SWEN.  
1. Use an existing standby rail in the system, which is derived from the main power input and comes up before  
the eFuse is turned on.  
2. Use an LDO (3.3 V or 5 V) powered from the main power input.

The ground connections for the various components around the TPS25985 eFuses must be wired directly to  
each other and the GND pins of respective eFuses. This must be followed by connecting them to the system  
ground at one point. For more details, refer to TPS25985EVM eFuse Evaluation Board. Do not connect the  
various component grounds through the high current system ground line.

10 Power Supply Recommendations  
The TPS25985x devices are designed for a supply voltage in the range of 4.5 V to 16 V on the IN and VDD pins.  
TI recommends using a minimum capacitance of 0.1 μF on the IN pin of each device in parallel chain to avoid  
coupling of high slew rates during hot plug events. TI also recommends using an R-C filter from the input supply  
to the VDD pin on each device in parallel chain to filter out supply noise and to hold up the controller supply  
during severe faults such as short-circuit.  
10.1 Transient Protection  
In the case of a short-circuit or circuit-breaker event when the device interrupts current flow, the input inductance  
generates a positive voltage spike on the input, and the output inductance generates a negative voltage spike on  
the output. The peak amplitude of voltage spikes (transients) is dependent on the value of inductance in series  
to the input or output of the device. Such transients can exceed the absolute maximum ratings of the device if  
steps are not taken to address the issue. Typical methods for addressing transients include:  
Minimize lead length and inductance into and out of the device.  
Use a large PCB GND plane.  
Connect a Schottky diode from the OUT pin ground to absorb negative spikes.  
Connect a low ESR capacitor of 2.2 μF or higher at the OUT pin very close to the device.  
Connect a ceramic capacitor CIN = 0.1 μF or higher at the IN pin very close to the device to dampen the rise  
time of input transients. The capacitor voltage rating must be at least twice the input supply voltage to be able  
to withstand the positive voltage excursion during inductive ringing.  
The approximate value of input capacitance can be estimated with 方程46.

VIN is the nominal supply voltage.  
ILOAD is the load current.  
LIN equals the effective inductance seen looking into the source.  
CIN is the capacitance present at the input.  
Some applications can require the addition of a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) to prevent transients  
from exceeding the absolute maximum ratings of the device. In some cases, even if the maximum amplitude  
of the transients is below the absolute maximum rating of the device, a TVS can help to absorb the excessive  
energy dump and prevent it from creating very fast transient voltages on the input supply pin of the IC, which  
can couple to the internal control circuits and cause unexpected behavior.  
The circuit implementation with optional protection components is shown in 10-1.

10.2 Output Short-Circuit Measurements  
It is difficult to obtain repeatable and similar short-circuit testing results. The following contribute to variation in  
results:  
Source bypassing  
Input leads  
Circuit layout  
Component selection  
Output shorting method  
Relative location of the short  
Instrumentation  
The actual short exhibits a certain degree of randomness because it microscopically bounces and arcs. Ensure  
that configuration and methods are used to obtain realistic results. Do not expect to see waveforms exactly like  
those in this data sheet because every setup is different.

11 Layout  
11.1 Layout Guidelines  
For all applications, TI recommends a ceramic decoupling capacitor of 0.1 μF or greater between the IN  
terminal and GND terminal.  
For all applications, TI recommends a ceramic decoupling capacitor of 2.2 μF or greater between the OUT  
terminal and GND terminal.  
The optimal placement of the decoupling capacitor is closest to the IN and GND terminals of the device. Care  
must be taken to minimize the loop area formed by the bypass-capacitor connection, the IN terminal, and the  
GND terminal of the IC. See Figure below for a PCB layout example.  
High current-carrying power-path connections must be as short as possible and must be sized to carry at  
least twice the full-load current.  
The GND terminal must be tied to the PCB ground plane at the terminal of the IC. The PCB ground must be a  
copper plane or island on the board.  
The IN and OUT pins are used for Heat Dissipation. Connect to as much copper area as possible with  
thermal vias.  
Locate the following support components close to their connection pins:  
RILIM  
RIMON  
CIMON  
RIREF  
CIREF  
CdVdT  
CITIMER  
CIN  
COUT  
CVDD  
Resistors for the EN/UVLO pin  
Connect the other end of the component to the GND pin of the device with shortest trace length. The trace  
routing for the CIN, COUT, CVDD, RIREF, CIREF, RILIM, RIMON, CIMON, CITIMER and CdVdt components to the  
device must be as short as possible to reduce parasitic effects on the current limit, overcurrent blanking  
interval and soft-start timing. These traces must not have any coupling to switching signals on the board.  
Because the IMON, ILIM, IREF and ITIMER pins directly control the overcurrent protection behavior of the  
device, the PCB routing of these nodes must be kept away from any noisy (switching) signals.  
TI recommends to keep the parasitic loading on SWEN pin to a minimum to avoid synchronization issues.  
Protection devices such as TVS, snubbers, capacitors, or diodes must be placed physically close to the  
device they are intended to protect. These protection devices must be routed with short traces to reduce  
inductance. For example, TI recommends a protection Schottky diode to address negative transients due to  
switching of inductive loads, and it must be physically close to the OUT pins.
