Multiple voltage regulator with switch and ignition buffer
7.3 Power switch
The power switch (pin PSW) is activated by the MODE input. It is switched off during
thermal shutdown and load dump conditions. The power switch output voltage is internally
clamped at 16 V to protect connected application circuitry (e.g. display and CD / tape
drives). The power switch has three different output current modes, depending on its
output voltage, the reset capacitor (RDC1) and the junction temperature (i.e. high current,
low current and foldback protection); see Figure 7. In the event of an overload the power
switch can maintain the maximum output current for a limited period of time (determined
by the integration time of the reset delay capacitor) before it drops back to the lower output
current capability. This functionality is implemented to prevent, in case of loads such as
light bulbs, relays or electrical motors, the power switch from folding back on momentary
high inrush currents. In the event of junction temperatures above 150 °C, the power switch
will drop back to the lower output current capability.The power switch has a built-in flyback
clamp for use in case of inductive loads.
7.4 Enable and mode inputs
The enable inputs (pins EN1 and EN2/3) are used to switch on or switch off the standby
regulators. The mode input (MODE) is used to enable the switched regulators and the
power switch. When all of these inputs are LOW the circuit is in Sleep mode and only the
enable detection circuit and the supply overvoltage protection circuit are active. In Sleep
mode the device draws a very small quiescent current from the supply. When at least one
of the enable inputs is activated the circuit will operate in Standby mode. When the mode
input is activated the on condition will be established; before the MODE pin can be
activated at least one of the standby regulators must be activated. The enable and mode
inputs are 3.3 V and 5 V CMOS logic compatible. A detailed description of the enable and
mode pin dependencies is given in Table 4.

Multiple voltage regulator with switch and ignition buffer
7.5 Storage capacitor
The storage capacitor (pin STC) is used as a back-up supply for the standby regulators
when the battery (pins V
P1
/ V
P2
) can no longer provide the supply. This situation may
occur for cold weather engine starts. The rising and falling storage capacitor voltage
threshold levels determine if the standby regulators can be switched on.
The storage capacitor pin is not intended to be used as an output (e.g. supply switch). No
external load should be connected to this pin.
7.6 Reset delay capacitors
The reset delay capacitors (pins RDC1 and RDC2/3) are used to delay the reset pulse
(RST1 and RST2/3) starting from the time the associated standby regulator output voltage
comes within its regulated voltage range i.e. crosses the rising reset threshold level. An
internal current source is used to charge the reset delay capacitor. The reset output will be
released (output goes HIGH) when the voltage on the reset delay capacitor crosses the
rising threshold level.
If the associated standby regulator voltage drops out of its regulated voltage range (drops
below its falling reset threshold level) the reset delay capacitor will be discharged with a
relatively high sink current. The reset output will be activated (output goes LOW) when the
reset delay capacitor crosses the falling threshold level. This feature is included to secure
a smooth start-up of the microcontroller at first connection, without uncontrolled switching
of the relevant standby regulators during a start-up sequence. It should be noted that
RDC1 is also used as a time constant for the delayed current protection of the power
switch.
7.7 Reset outputs
The reset function depends on the reset delay capacitor voltage and includes hysteresis
to avoid oscillation at the threshold level. The reset outputs are push-pull for sourcing or
sinking current. The output voltage can be switched between the ground level and the
output voltage of the relevant standby regulator. An external reset delay capacitor can be
added if a timed reset pulse is required (C
RDC1
or C
RDC2/3
).
Standby regulator 1 has an independent reset function (pins RST1 and RDC1). Standby
regulators 2 and 3 have combined circuitry (pins RST2/3 and RDC2/3). The reset trigger
signals from both regulators are connected using an OR function to the reset output buffer
thus ensuring that both regulators can generate a reset when appropriate. The RST1
output is linked to standby regulator 1 (5 V) and, therefore, generates a 5 V HIGH-level
output voltage. The RST2/3 output is linked to regulator 2 (3.3 V) and, therefore,
generates a 3.3 V HIGH-level output voltage.
7.8 Hold output
The hold output (pin HOLD) is a combined output for the thermal pre-warning signal and
all other diagnostic signals. To distinguish between these signals, the HOLD output is
designed as an active HIGH 3-state output buffer. When a no failure condition is present
the output is LOW. When a thermal pre-warning signal is generated (e.g. to shut down
other circuits in the radio before the regulator itself shuts down) the signal rises to its MID

level. In all other warning situations, the HOLD output rises to its HIGH level. In order to
generate standard CMOS logic compliant signals an external decoding circuit has to be
implemented; see Figure 9.
The HOLD output will be active HIGH when:
The output voltage of one or more switched regulators is out of regulation (except
REG7), due to overload or supply voltage drops
The power switch operates in the Foldback mode
In Standby or On mode the thermal shutdown is activated
In Standby or On mode the load dump protection is activated
In Standby mode a low battery voltage occurs (V
P1
) indicating that it is not possible to
pull REG4 into regulation when switching it on.
It should be noted that there is intentionally no out-of-regulation detection for REG7 since
it can be adjusted to maximum 10 V and would, in that event, activate the HOLD signal
very early.
The HOLD function includes hysteresis in order to avoid oscillations when the hold
threshold level is crossed. A schematic diagram of the HOLD function is illustrated in
Figure 3.
