Overload protection
In case of overload, such as high inrush of cold lamp filament, or short circuit to ground, the BTT6200-4ESA
offers several protection mechanisms.
6.5.1
Current limitation
At first step, the instantaneous power in the switch is maintained at a safe value by limiting the current to the
maximum current allowed in the switch IL(SC). During this time, the DMOS temperature increases, which affects
the current flowing in the DMOS.
6.5.2
Temperature limitation in the power DMOS
Each channel incorporates both an absolute (TJ(SC)) and a dynamic (TJ(SW)) temperature sensor. Activation of
either sensor will cause an overheated channel to switch OFF to prevent destruction. Any protective switch OFF
latches the output until the temperature has reached an acceptable value which is depicted in Figure 19.
No retry strategy is implemented such that when the DMOS temperature has cooled down enough, the switch is
switched ON again. Only the IN pin signal toggling can re-activate the power stage (latch behavior).
