GROUND FAULT
INTERRUPTER
DESCRIPTION
The UTC
GM1851
can specially provide ground fault protection
for AC power outlets in consumer and industrial environments. As
ground fault currents greater than a presentable threshold value, it
will trigger an external SCR-driven circuit breaker to interrupt the
AC line and remove the fault condition. Besides of detection of
conventional hot wire to ground faults, the neutral fault condition is
detected also. In the event that noise pulses introduce unwanted
charging currents and a memory circuit that allows firing of even a
sluggish breaker on either half-cycle of the line voltage when
external full-wave rectification is used, circuitry that rapidly resets
the timing capacitor.
LINEAR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
FEATURES
* Internal power supply shunt regulator
* Externally programmable fault current threshold
* Externally programmable fault current integration time
* Direct interface to SCR
* Operates under line reversal; both load vs line and hot vs neutral
* Detects neutral line faults

Note: 1. For operation in ambient temperatures above 25℃, the device must be debated based on a 125℃ maximum
junction temperature and a thermal resistance of 80℃/W junction to ambient for the DIP and 162/W for the
SO Package.
2. Average of 10 trials.
3. Required UL sensitivity tolerance is such that external trimming of UTC GM1851 sensitivity will be necessary.
4. This externally applied current is in addition to the internal ''output drive current '' source.
