DESCRIPTION

The L584 is designed to drive injector solenoids in electronic fuel injection systems and generally in- ductive loads for automotive applications. The de- vice is controlled by two logic inputs and features switchmode regulation of the load current driving an external darlington and an auxiliary one for the cur- rent recirculation. A key feature of the L584 is flexi- bility. It can be used with a variety of darlingtons to match the requirements of the load and it allows both simple and two level currentcontrol. Moreover, DIP16 ( 1 2+2+2 ) ORDERING NUMBER : L584 the drive waveshape can be adjusted by external components.

The L584is suppliedin a 16 lead Powerdippackage which uses the four center pins to conduct heat to the PC board copper. BLOCK DIAGRAM

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Controlledby a logic input and an inhibit input (both TTL compatible), the device drives the external dar- lington(s) to produce a load current waveform as shown in figure 4. This basic waveform shows that the deviceproduces an initial highlevel currentin or- der to ensure a fast opening, followed by a holding level current as long as the input is active. Both the peak and holding current are regulated by the L584’s switchmode circuitry. The durationof thehigh level current and the values of thepeakand the holding currents can beadjusted by external components. Moreover, by omitting C1, C2 or both it is possible to realize single-level current control, a transitory peak followed by a regulated holding current or a simple peak (figure 1). The peak and holding current values are always re- L584

ferred, in the following formula, to IE, emitter current of the external darlington Q2, IE =ILOAD +Idn because the sensing detection is on the darlington emitter (not directly on the load). The peak current level Ip, is set by the sensing re- sistor, Rs, and is found from : Ip = 0.45 / Rs (typ) The peak value of holding current level, Ih, is set by a voltage(Vset) applied to pin 2, giving : Ihp =V setth/Rs =( Vset± 10mV)/Rs The peak to hold current ratio is fixed by Vset: Ip /Ihp = 0.45 / Vsetth Vsetis fixed by an external reference and a voltage divider (Vext, R1, R2 in fig 2) : Vset=V ext* R2 / (R1 + R2) Dueto the particulardarlingtonstorage time and the device reaction time not very significant differences can be found betweenIp and Ih values based on the previous formula and the real values seen in the ap- plications. If the holding current function is not used, pin 2 can- not be left floatingand it must be connectedto GND. Figure 2: Application Circuit Showing the Optional Components. In particular it illustrates how the holding current level is adjustedindependentlyof the peak current (with R1, R2, Vext) and how the internal zener clamp is connected. This circuit produces the waveforms shown in Fig. 4. Io (A) Q1 Q2

The drive current for the two darlingtons and the waveform time constants are all defined in turn by a resistor between pin 9 and ground. The recommended value for I r is 1mA which is ob- tained with a 1.2KΩ resistor. The darlington drive currents are given by : PNP : Idp =3 5Ir typ. NPN : Idn =1 0 0Ir typ. The duration of the high current level (t2 in fig 4) is set by a capacitor connected between pin 6 and ground.This capacitor,C1 is related to the duration, t2,b y: V6th–V 6sat C 1 t2 =C 1 = 12 (typ.)I6 Iref The discharge time constant (toffin fig 4) is set by a capacitorC2 between pin7 and ground and is found from : V7th–V 7sat C r toff=C 2 ⋅ =1 2 (typ) I7 Iref Figure 4: Waveforms of the Typical Application Circuit of Fig. 2.

To have a very short off time when the L584 input goes LOW, an internal zener is available on pin 16. This zener is used with an external divider, R8, R9, as shown in figure 2. Suitable values can be found from : V pin 16≅ 15V + VBEQ2 + VRsense R9 + R8VCQ2 ≅ Vpin 16. (VCQ2 is the voltage at the collector of Q2. VCQ2 max is 47V if the pin 8 is used for slow recirculation as in fig. 2). To ensure stability, a small capacitor (about 200pF) must be connected between the base and collector of Q2 when pin 16 is used. A different opportunityfor a fast off time is based on the use of the external zener diode Dz. In this case also the maximum Dz voltage value is 47V. LOAD DUMP PROTECTION To protectthedevice againstthe positiveload dump it is necessary to connect pin 1 to V S. In this case, if VS is higher than 32V, the device turns off Q2 and turns on Q1. The external resistor R6 must be used (see application circuit) to avoid that pin 8 voltage exceeds 50V during load dump. R6 must be : VDUMP –V 8R 6 > Idp where VDUMP is the dump voltage value and V8 : 4.75V < V8 <4 7 V . For this R6 value, the minimum supply voltageVSmin guaranteeingQ1 operation is given by : VSmin = R6  Ip BQ1 (+2) VBEQ1 R 5 + V8sat In relation to VSmin it is no more verified Idp =3 5Iref (typ) even if the system correct operation is com- pletely guaranteed. The L584 application circuit suggested in these notes allows the use of inductive loads with the low- est possible series resistance (compatible with con- structional requirements)and therefore reducesno- tably the power dissipation. For example, an electronic injector driven from 14.4V which draws 2.4A has a series resistance of 6Ω and dissipates34.56W. Using this circuit a injec- tor with a 1Ω series resistance can be used and the power dissipation is : P d =R LIL2 +V D IL (1 –σ)+V sat⋅ILσ +R S IL2 σ where RL = resistance of injector = 1Ω VD = drop across diode, VD ≅ 1V Vsat = saturation voltage of Q2,≅ 1V RS = R11 = 185mΩ σ= duty cycle = 20% therefore : This given two advantages : the size (and cost) of the injector is reduced and the drive current is re- duced from 2.4A to about 0.4A. The applicationcircuit of figure9 isverysimilar tofig- ure 2 except that it shows the use of two supplies : one for the control circuit, one for the power stage. L584

Figure 9: Application circuit showing how two separate supplies can be used. In this application it is assumed that the 5V supply for L584 is taken from a logic supply, which is al- ready protected, against load dump transients and vol-tage reversal. Pin 1 must be left open, as shown in fig. 9, if VS is always lower than 46V even during the voltage tran- sients. Note that toffis also related to the required current rippleΔI on the peak or on the holding current level by : (Io – ΔI) RL +V off toff=– l n Io RL +V off Where : Io is the initialcurrent valuein OFF condition (equal to Ip or IH in accordanceto the current level considered), VOFF =V DIODE +V CEQ1 R L is the series resistance value of the induc- tance L : Therefore C2 can be dimensioned directly by : IREF Ll n ( Io – ΔI) RL +V OFF C2 = 12 R L Io R L +V OFF Note that toffis the same for both the peak and hold- ing current. ton time is given by : LV on – R(I1 –ΔI) ton =l nRV on – RI1 where : I1 is the final current value in ON condition (equal to Ip or IH in accordance to the current level considered), R= R L +R SENSE Von =V S –V CE satQ2 If the constant times are respectively LL >2 0 toff and > 20 t onRR it is possible to consider a purely inductive load and therefore : ΔI ΔI toff=L ;t on =LVo Von L R L584
