S DA9171A.000 July 31, 1997 FUNCTIONS ◆ Input protection The input protection is composed of a high voltage thin film series resistor, a metal-to-metal capacitor to ground and a Zener diode to GND. The circuit provides the ability of withstanding energy rich voltage pulses as well as fast transient high voltage bursts without damaging the MAS9171A or devices connected to it. The resistance of each input to ground is approx. 225 kOhms. Each input is protected against electrostatic discharge (ESD) according to Machine Model EIAJ ED-4701 Method C-111 (+/-500 kV, 200 pF, 0 Ohms). The device has been specially designed for high decoupling between Inputs and Power Supply or Outputs to prevent voltage overswing when applying test pulses according to DIN40839/ISO7637. For a given ambient temperature the maximum pulse length is limited by the maximum silicon temperature of T=150°C. ◆ Analog filter The input protection is followed by a passive low pass filter of 2nd order with a 3 dB frequency of 150 kHz. This filter is used to block high frequency components coupled through capacitive coupling clamps or electromagnetic field. ◆ Comparator The output signal of the analog filter of each channel is pulse-shaped by a Schmitt-Trigger Comparator with strong output drivers. The output stage works with non-overlapping clocks to reduce current spikes at the Supply Pins caused by change of output level. ◆ Input levels The Ouput OUTx is “High” if the corresponding input voltage VINx > 5.5 V and “Low” if VINx < 2.75 V (typical values).

APPLICATION INFORMATION

  • GENERAL In the late 70ties microcontrollers have been introduced into most of the low cost applications in the field of consumer, industrial and automotive. Lowest cost 8-Bit microcontrollers are used in modern computer monitors for user programmable adjustment of the picture geometrie. A modern car can carry up to 40 The increased density of complex electronic systems results in high electromagnetic fields with a wide frequency spectrum in the environment. Examples for typical noise sources are DC-Motors, ignitors, discharge lamps, switch-mode supplies and all different kinds of transmitters like mobile phones and radio stations. The requirements on EMI immunity are defined in several DIN, ISO and IEC standards. Design-Engineers have to think of how to protect sensitive components like microcontrollers against overvoltage pulses. Especially pulses with short rise times might cause problems because most of the standard components are not designed to work properly at frequencies above the cut-off frequency. In addition the layout of the PCB is very critical at high frequencies. Filters components have to be placed very closely to the connectors leading to external wires that may work as antennas. It is quite common that a lot of filter and protection components have to be designed in at a very late phase of the project when starting EMI measurements with pre-production parts. This can cause delays to the product introduction phase and therefore it is very important to think about the limits of sensitive components already with the first Prototypes.
  • INPUT PROTECTION FOR MICROCONTROLLERS A typical protection circuit for a digital input of a HCMOS microcontrollers consists of one series resistor, one or two block capacitors to Vss and two clamping diodes to Vss/Vdd. The series resistor shall limit the maximum current into the internal protection diodes to a value below the latch-up current of the input structure (typ. 25mA). Together with the capacitor it builds up a 1th order RC-filter.The purpose of the filter is to get a stable signal within the sampling period of the microcontroller without need of software filtering. For resistor values > 100 kOhms however, the leakage current of the port may cause unwanted dropout V d d uC P 1 V in Fig.2 : Discrete protection circuit voltage which is not any longer neglectible to the input voltage. Over the full temperature and supply voltage range this can cause severe tolerance problems. Those inputs need extra clamping diodes to the Vss/Vdd and a lower value series resistor. Most of 0805/1204 SMD resistors are specified for voltages < 200V. For higher voltages two resistors in series are recommended. Especially for applications with a lot of input ports the protection circuitry around the microcontroller consumes a big amount of board space and therefore makes the board layout very difficult even when using SMD components. Each component is a potential source of an error in production and must be tested with In-circuit testers.

  • The MAS9171A shall be placed closely to the microprocessor to avoid voltage spikes at the uC inputs caused by currents on the Supply Pins and/or Pins OUT1 to OUT8.
  • A block capacitor of 33nF close to the Supply Pins is recommended
  • It is important to connect external Pull-Up resistors to Vignition in order to prevent quiescent current into the MAS9171A (Note: MAS9171A has internal pull-down of 225Koms to Gnd).
