DESCRIPTION
The
LT
®
1910
is a high side gate driver that allows the use of
low cost N-channel power MOSFETs for high side switching
applications. It contains a completely self-contained charge
pump to fully enhance an N-channel MOSFET switch with
no external components.
When the internal drain comparator senses that the switch
current has exceeded the preset level, the switch is turned
off and a fault flag is asserted. The switch remains off for
a period of time set by an external timing capacitor and
then automatically attempts to restart. If the fault still
exists, this cycle repeats until the fault is removed, thus
protecting the MOSFET. The fault flag becomes inactive
once the switch restarts successfully.
The LT1910 has been specifically designed for harsh
operating environments such as industrial, avionics and
automotive applications where poor supply regulation and/
or transients may be present. The device will not sustain
damage from supply transients of –15V to 60V.
The LT1910 is available in the SO-8 package.

PIN FUNCTIONS
GND (Pin 1):
Common Ground.
TIMER (Pin 2):
A timing capacitor, C
T
, from the TIMER
pin to ground sets the restart time following overcurrent
detection. Upon detection of an overcurrent condition, C
T
is rapidly discharged to less than 1V and then recharged
by a 14µA nominal current source back to the 2.9V timer
threshold, whereupon the restart is attempted. Whenever
TIMER pulls below 2.9V, the GATE pin pulls low to turn off
the external switch. This cycle repeats until the overcurrent
condition goes away and the switch restarts successfully.
During normal operation the pin clamps at 3.5V nominal.
FAULT
(Pin 3):
The
FAULT
pin monitors the TIMER pin
voltage and indicates the overcurrent condition. Whenever
the TIMER pin is pulled below 3.3V at the onset of a cur-
rent limit condition, the
FAULT
pin pulls active LOW. The
FAULT
pin resets HIGH immediately when the TIMER pin
ramps above 3.4V during autorestart. The
FAULT
pin is an
open-collector output, thus requiring an external pull-up
resistor and is intended for logic interface. The resistor
should be selected with a maximum of 1mA pull-up at
low status.
IN (Pin 4):
The IN pin threshold is TTL/CMOS compatible
and has approximately 200mV of hysteresis. When the
IN pin is pulled active HIGH above 2V, an internal charge
pump is activated to pull up the GATE pin. The IN pin can
be pulled as high as 15V regardless of whether the sup-
ply is on or off. If the IN pin is left open, an internal 75k
pull-down resistor pulls the pin below 0.8V to ensure that
the GATE pin is inactive LOW.
GATE (Pin 5):
The GATE pin drives the power MOSFET
gate. When the IN pin is greater than 2V, the GATE pin is
pumped approximately 12V above the supply. It has rela-
tively high impedance (the equivalence of a few hundred
kΩ) when pumped above the rail. Care should be taken
to minimize any loading by parasitic resistance to ground
or supply. The GATE pin pulls LOW when the TIMER pin
falls below 2.9V.
SENSE (Pin 6):
The SENSE pin connects to the input of
a supply-referenced comparator with a 65mV nominal
offset. When the SENSE pin is taken more than 65mV
below supply, the MOSFET gate is driven LOW and the
timing capacitor is discharged. The SENSE pin threshold
has a 0.33%/°C temperature coefficient (TC), which closely
matches the TC of the drain-sense resistor formed from
the copper trace of the PCB.
For loads requiring high inrush current, an RC timing delay
can be added between the drain-sense resistor and the
SENSE pin to ensure that the current-sense comparator
