PIN # NAME DESCRIPTION
Pin 1 Duty Cycle Adjust Internally, this pin connects to the input of a comparator and a (2.75 x I
REF
) current source from V
S
. The voltage at this node linearly
sets the duty cycle. Duty cycle can be programmed with a resistor, analog voltage, or the voltage output of a D/A converter. The
active voltage range is from 1.3V to 3.9V to facilitate the use of single-supply control electronics. At 3.56V, output duty cycle is near
90%. At 1.5V, output duty cycle is near 10%.
Pin 2 Delay Adjust This pin sets the duration of the initial 100% duty cycle before the output goes into PWM mode. Leaving this pin floating results
in a delay of approximately 18µs, which is internally limited by parasitic capacitance. Minimum delay may be reduced to less than
1µs by tying the pin to 5V. This pin connects internally to a 3µA current source from V
S
and to a 2.6V threshold comparator. When
the pin voltage is below 2.6V, the output device is 100% ON. The PWM oscillator is not synchronized to the Input (pin 1), so the
duration of the first pulse may be any portion of the programmed duty cycle.
Pin 3 Oscillator PWM frequency is adjustable. A resistor to ground sets the current I
REF
and the internal PWM oscillator frequency. A range of 500Hz
Frequency Adjust to 100kHz can be achieved with practical resistor values. Although oscillator frequency operation below 500Hz is possible, resistors
higher than 10M will be required. The pin then becomes a very high impedance node and is, therefore, sensitive to noise pickup
and PCB leakage currents.
Pin 4 GND This pin must be connected to system ground for the DRV103 to function. It carries the 0.4mA quiescent current plus the full load
current when the power DMOS transistor is switched on.
Pin 5 OUT The output is the drain of a power DMOS transistor with its source connected to ground. Its low on-resistance (0.5Ω typ) assures
low power dissipation in the DRV103. Gate drive to the power device is controlled to provide a slew-rate limited rise and fall time.
This reduces radiated RFI/EMI noise. A flyback diode is needed with inductive loads to conduct the load current during the off
cycle. The external diode should be selected for low forward voltage and low storage time. The internal clamp diode (an ESD
protection diode) provides some degree of back-EMF protection but it should not be used as a flyback diode.
Pin 6 +V
S
This is the power supply pin. Operating range is +8V to +32V. +V
S
must be ≥ the supply voltage to the load.
Pin 7 Status OK Flag Normally HIGH (active LOW), a Flag LOW signals either an over-temperature or over-current fault. The over-current flag (Status
OK) is LOW only when the output is ON (constant DC output or the “ON” portion of PWM mode). A thermal fault (thermal shutdown)
occurs when the die surface reaches approximately 160°C and latches until the die cools to 140°C. This output requires a pull-
up resistor and it can typically sink 2mA, sufficient to drive a low-current LED. Sink current is internally limited at 10mA typical.
Pin 8 Input The input is compatible with standard TTL levels. The device output becomes enabled when the input voltage is driven above the
typical switching threshold, 1.7V. Below this level, the output is disabled. Input current is typically 10nA when driven HIGH and 10nA
with the input LOW. The input should not be directly connected to the power supply (V
S
) or damage will occur.
