5 V up to 12 V. The integrated current monitor function is a unique feature that provides diagnosis and system
protection functionality. Fault conditions such as overtemperature and output overvoltage are monitored
and indicated at the current sense output. The maximum output current limit of the device is adjustable to
provide additional protection to the connected load.
Via the enable function the IC can be disabled to lower the power consumption. The PG-SSOP14 EP package
provides an enhanced thermal performance within a SO8 body size.

Voltage regulator
4.1
Description voltage regulator
The output voltage VQ is controlled by comparing the feedback voltage (VADJ) to an internal reference voltage
and driving a PNP pass transistor accordingly. The control loop stability depends on the output capacitor CQ,
the output capacitor ESR, the load current and the chip temperature. To ensure stable operation, the output
capacitor’s capacitance and its equivalent series resistor ESR requirements given in the Table 3.2 have to be
maintained. For stability details please refer to the typical performance graph Output capacitor series
resistivity ESRCQ vs. output current IQ. In addition the output capacitor may need to be sized larger to
buffer load transients.
An input capacitor CI is not needed for the control loop stability, but recommended to buffer line influences.
Connect the capacitors close to the IC terminals. In general a buffered supply voltage is recommended for the
device. For details see Chapter 8.1.
Protection circuitry prevents the IC as well as the application from destruction in case of catastrophic events.
The integrated safeguards consist of output current limitation, reverse polarity protection as well as thermal
shutdown in case of overtemperature.
In order to avoid excessive power dissipation that could never be handled by the pass element and the
package, an integrated safe operation monitor lowers the maximum output current input voltages above
VBAT = 22 V.
The thermal shutdown circuit prevents the IC from immediate destruction under fault conditions (e.g. output
continuously short-circuited) by switching off the power stage. After the chip has cooled down, the regulator
restarts. This leads to an oscillatory behavior of the output voltage until the fault is removed. However,
junction temperatures above 150°C are outside the maximum ratings and therefore significantly reduce the
IC lifetime.
The TLF4277EL allows a negative supply voltage. However, several small currents are flowing into the
IC increasing its junction temperature. This reverse current has to be considered for the thermal design,
respecting that the thermal protection circuit is not operating during reverse polarity condition.

Application information for the setting the variable output voltage
The output voltage of the TLF4277EL can be adjusted between 5 V and 12 V by an external output voltage
divider, closing the control loop to the voltage adjust pin ADJ.
The voltage at pin ADJ is compared to the internal reference of typical 1.22 V in an error amplifier. It controls
the output voltage.

Application detail external components at output for variable voltage regulator
The output voltage is calculated according to Equation (4.1):
VQ = (R1 + R2)/R2 × VREF,int, neglecting IADJ
(4.1)
VREF,int is typically 1.22 V.
To avoid errors caused by leakage current IADJ, we recommend to choose the resistor value for R2 < 27 kΩ.
The accuracy of the resistors for the external voltage divider can lead to a higher tolerance of the output
voltage.To achieve a reasonable accuracy resistors with a tolerance of 1% or lower are recommended for the
feedback divider.

Current and protection monitor functions
6.1
Functional description current and protection monitors
The TLF4277EL provides a set of advanced monitor functionality. The current flowing into the power stage can
be monitored at the CSO output. In addition the current limitation can be adjusted via external resistors.
Events of the implemented protection functions are reported through dedicated voltage levels at the
CSO output. This information can be processed by an external µC for system analysis and failure
identification. The monitored events are over-current, overvoltage, and temperature shutdown.

To reduce possible effects from the supply voltage VBAT additional filtering in of the supply voltage is
recommended. A combination of a 100 nF capacitor and an additional buffer capacitor of 10 µF or higher
should be placed as close a possible to the IC terminal, which are connected to VBAT.
Figure 6 shows the output level at the CSO pin versus the operation or fault condition. The graph is valid for
the following set up of external components:
RSHUNT = 1 Ω
RCS1 = 100 Ω
CCSO = 2.2 µF

Linear current monitor
Inside the linear current monitor area the current driven out of the CSO pin is proportional to the voltage
which is measured between pin CS1 and CS2.
The level of the current ICSO can be adjusted according to Equation (6.1):

6.1.2
Adjustable output current limitation
The TLF4277EL has an adjustable current limitation for the current flowing into the power stage (pin CS2). If
the level of the voltage drop across the sense resistor RSHUNT is higher than the desired linear monitor range the
output current of the TLF4277EL will be limited.
Setting of the adjustable current limitation
(6.3)
2.55V × R CS1
I CS2,lim = --------------------------------------R SHUNT × R CSO
A voltage level as defined in VCSO,cur_lim will be applied at the CSO pin.
To achieve a current limitation of 170 mA the following configuration can be used:
(6.4)
2.55V × 100Ω
I CS2,lim = ----------------------------------- = 170mA
1Ω × 1.5kΩ
RSHUNT = 1 Ω
RCS1 = 100 Ω
RCSO = 1.5 kΩ
6.1.3
Overvoltage detection
To detect a possible short circuit of the output to a higher supply rail the TLF4277EL has an overvoltage
detection implemented. An overvoltage will be detected, if the voltage level at the ADJ pin is 20% higher than
the internal reference voltage VREF,int defined in Table 5.
Under this condition the CSO pin will be driven through an internal voltage buffer with a voltage level as
defined in VCSO,OV.
6.1.4
Thermal shutdown detection
If the junction temperature will exceed the limits defined in the Table 5 the TLF4277EL will disable the output
voltage. In this case a voltage level as defined in VCSO,TSD will be applied at the CSO pin.

Enable function
7.1
Description enable function
The TLF4277EL can be turned on or turned off via the EN Input. With voltage levels higher than VEN,high applied
to the EN input the device will be completely turned on. A voltage level lower than VEN,low sets the device to low
quiescent current mode. In this condition the device is turned off and is not functional. The enable input has
an build in hysteresis to avoid toggling between ON/OFF state, if signals with slow slope are applied to the
input.
