SPDP03D375
Description
Figure 3 shows the block diagram of the SPDP03D375 SSPC. It uses a digital isolator for digital I/O. The
block labeled “Control C) gets power from the DC-DC converter and is referenced to the output of the
SSPC. This block contains an amplifier to gain up the voltage developed across the sense resistor. It also
contains a microcontroller with on-board timers, A/D converter, clock generator and independent watchdog
timer. The microcontroller implements a precision I2t protection curve as well as an Instant Trip function to
protect the wiring and to protect itself. It performs all of the functions of multiple analog comparators and
discrete logic in one high-reliability component.
The code programmed in the microcontroller acquires the output of the internal A/D converter, squares the
result and applies it to a simulated RC circuit. It checks the output of the simulated circuit to determine
whether or not to trip (turn off the power MOSFETs). Because the microcontroller simulates an analog RC
circuit, the SSPC has „thermal memory‟. That is, it trips faster if there had been current flowing prior to the
overload than if there hadn‟t been current flowing. This behavior imitates thermal circuit breakers and better
protects the application‟s wiring since the wiring cannot take as much an overload if current had been
flowing prior to the overload.
The watchdog timer operates from its own internal clock so a failure of the main clock will not stop the
watchdog timer. The code programmed in the microcontroller will periodically reset the watchdog timer
preventing it from timing out. If the code malfunctions for any reason, the watchdog timer is not reset and it
times out. When the watchdog timer times out, it resets the microcontroller. Since the code is designed to
detect levels and not edges, the output of the module, and therefore the output of the SPDPXXD375,
immediately reflects the command on its input.
The Control block also has the ability for the user to adjust the current rating by varying the trip point with a
resistor between the “I2t TRIP ADJ” pin and the LOADpin, to adjust the Instant Trip current level with a
resistor between the “INSTANT TRIP ADJ” pin and the LOAD pin. See Equation (1) to select the
appropriate resistor for adjusting the current rating. See Equation 2 to select the appropriate resistor for
adjusting the Instant Trip current.
Select RI2T to program the current rating between 0.9A and 3A. Please notice the actual I2t trip level is
between 115% and 145% of the programed current according to the I2T trip curve.
Equation (1)
Select RINST to program the instant trip level between 400% and 700% of the rated current.
Equation (2)
Note: I0 is rated current for the SSPC unit 3A.
The Power MOSFETs used in the SPDP03D375 have been selected for very low Rds (on) and result in
low voltage drop and low power dissipation. As can be seen in Table 4, when the SPDP03D375 is
operated at 3 Amps, 100% of rated current, it dissipates less than 1.9 Watt in the whole temperature range.
When operates at extreme temperature, some heat sink can be accomplished by adding copper area to the
“LINE” and “LOAD” pins, a heat sink can be epoxy attached to the surface of the module or a flat copper or

aluminum heat sink can be sandwiched between the SPDP03D375 and the printed circuit board using a
thermal pad to maximize heat transfer. Each application should be evaluated at maximum expected
constant current.
The SPDP03D375 has sufficient thermal mass that the temperature will rise only a few degrees under the
worst-case overload. Repetitive overloads should be avoided. When the SPDPXXD375 reports a trip
condition, the controller driving the SPDPXXD375 should allow no more than four repetitions and then allow
thirty seconds to cool down before trying to turn on again.
The SPDP03D375 will trip on overloads in the ALWAYS TRIP region and will never trip when in the NEVER
TRIP region. It can be reset by bringing the CONTROL pin to a logic low. When the CONTROL” pin is
brought back to logic high, the SPDP03D375 will turn back on. If the overload is still present, it will trip
again. Cycling the “5 Volt BIAS” power will also reset the SPDP03D375. If the “CONTROL” pin is at logic
high when the “5 Volt BIAS” power is cycled, the SPDP03D375 will turn back on when the 5 Volt BIAS”
power is re-applied.

SPDP03D375
High Voltage Considerations
The SPDP03D375 is designed for 375VDC systems. It contains an Output Leakage Sink to ensure that the
output is at a safe voltage when it is off (whether it is turned off or is off due to loss of 5V BIAS Power). This
circuitry absorbs the leakage current from the main switch and keeps the output voltage less than 1.5VDC
over the temperature range. Figure 3 shows the Output Leakage Sink as a simple switch. However, the
Output Leakage Sink is a transistor operating as a current source with a value of 80 mA. When the current
into the output leakage sink is less than 80 mA, the transistor saturates and the output leakage sink looks
like a resistor of about 60 Ohms. 80 mA can be used to determine how long it takes to discharge a
particular load capacitance if the load is a pure capacitance. If the load is a combination of resistance and
capacitance, it‟s likely that the RC time constant will discharge the capacitance faster than the output
leakage sink.
Sufficient spacing should be allowed on the user‟s PCB between the 375VDC line supply and the 375VDC
power return and between the CONTROL and 5VDC Bias circuits and the 375VDC circuit to prevent arcing.
Due to the small size of the SPDP03D375, the spacing between pins is small so conformal coating should
be used to prevent arcing, especially if transient voltages above 375VDC are possible.
Wire Size
MIL-W-5088L has a chart that shows wire size as a function of wire temperature and current. This chart is
for a single copper wire in free air. For an ambient temperature of 70 oC, the chart allows a 26-gauge wire
to handle 3 Amps continuously at a wire temperature of 100 oC a wire temperature rise of 30oC.
Amendment 1 of MIL-W-5088L has a table for copper wire in a bundle, group or harness with condition on
the number of wires, percent of total harness capacity, etc. This table shows that a 22 gauge wire is
necessary for 105 oC operation.
MIL-W-5088L has various figures showing derating for harnesses as a function of the number of current
carrying conductors for different altitudes. MIL-W-5088L only specifies wire for DC or RMS AC conditions,
not for transient or overload conditions. MIL-W-5088L and its amendment should be consulted to determine
minimum wire sizes for other currents and conditions.
For transient or overload conditions, the transient or overload happens so quickly that heat is not transferred
from the wire to the surroundings. The heat caused by the I2R heating of the wire causes the temperature
to rise at a linear rate controlled by the heat capacity of the wire. The equation for this linear rise in
temperature, with respect to time, can be solved as: I2t = constant. Every wire has an I2t rating that‟s
dependent on the temperature rise allowed and the diameter of the wire. If the I2t rating of the SSPC or
circuit breaker is less than the I2t rating of the wire, then the SSPC or circuit breaker can protect the wire.
The maximum I2t rating for the SPD03D375 is 11.7 Amp2-Seconds. Every wire size in the paragraphs
above has an I2t rating that exceeds the SPDP03D375 I2t rating for the temperature rises stated. Therefore,
to select a wire size, it‟s simply a matter of determining the maximum temperature rise of the application and
deciding whether or not the wire will be in a bundle and use the information above.
Application Connections
Due to the presence of the circuitry that keeps the output at safe voltage when the SPDP03D375 is off, it
may only be configured as a high-side switch as shown in Figure 3.
Rise Time & Fall Time
The rise and fall times of the SPDP03D375 are pre-set at the factory for a nominal 2mS rise time and 500µS
fall time with a LINE supply of 375VDC (see Table 1 for min/max limits). The rise and fall times will vary

linearly with supply voltage. The “PWR RTN” pin is used to control the rise and fall times. If the “PWR
RTN” pin is left open, the rise time will be around 400µS, and the fall time will be around 50µS (control to
gate change delay will stay the same). Leaving the “PWR RTN” pin open can be useful when a faster rise
or fall time is desirable; however, the Output Leakage Sink will not be functional with the “PWR RTN” pin
open. And fault may be tripped by capacitive load.
With the “PWR RTN” pin connected as in Figures 3, the SPDP03D375, when set for a 3 Amp rating, can
turn on into a capacitive load of 40µF, typ. without tripping for any power supply voltage within the rating.
Short circuit definition
With the “PWR RTN” pin connected as in Figures 3, SPDPxxD375 can survive at short circuit condition
which has been defined by 0.1Ohm resistor in series with 1.35uH inductance cross the LOAD and
LOAD_RTN. At 25 C, short circuit trip level has been defined as current larger than 21.2A (typical). And
this short circuit trip level will decrease with temperature linearly at a rate of 0.1A/ C (typical). So the unit will
trip at lower current level when at higher temperature to protect itself, which means at high temperature,
short circuit trip level may be lower than the set instant trip level.
Wiring and Load Inductance
Wiring inductance can cause voltage transients when the SPDP03D375 is switched off due to an overload.
Generally, these transients are small but must be considered when long wires are used on either the “LINE”
or “LOAD” pins or both. A 30 foot length of wire in free air will cause a transient voltage of about 10 Volts
when the SPDP03D375 trips at an Instant Trip level of 21 Amps. At the rated load current of 3 Amps, the
voltage transient will be less than 1 Volt. A transient suppressor is recommended at the “LINE” pin so that
the total voltage between the “LINE” and “LOAD” pins is less than 500 Volts. The SPDP03D375V unit
includes a reverse biased diode from the “LOAD” to “PWR RTN” pins to prevent damaging transients on the
output due to inductive loads.
Paralleling
For example, putting two SPDP03D375s in parallel will not double the rating to 6 Amps. Due to differences
in the Rds (on) of the Power Mosfets in the SSPCs, the current will not share equally. In addition, there are
unit-to-unit differences in the trip curves so that two SPDP03D375s in parallel may possibly trip at 5 Amps.
Also, both SPDP03D375s will not trip together; the SPDP03D375 carrying the higher current will trip first
followed by the other SPDP03D375. Multiple units may be used in parallel as long as these complexities
are appreciated.
Board Layout
The current-carrying power circuit should be kept well away from the control circuit and other low-level
circuits in the system. It‟s unlikely, but possible, that magnetic coupling could affect the control circuit when
turning normal loads on and off. However, in the case of an overload, the magnetic coupling could be 10
times greater than with normal loads. Effects of such coupling could cause „chattering‟ when turning on and
off, oscillation, and the possibility of turning the SPDP03D375 back on after an overload. The SPDP03D375
is a Trip-Free device. Once tripped it will not turn back on until reset and commanded on again. Reset is
accomplished by bringing the “CONTROL” pin low and then turning the SSPC back on by bringing the
“CONTROL” pin high. Sufficient magnetic coupling between the current-carrying power circuit and the
control circuit can negate the Trip-Free characteristic.
MIL-STD-704F
This standard covers the characteristics of the electrical systems in Military Aircraft. The SPDP03D375
meets all of the requirements of MIL-STD-704F including Normal, Emergency, Abnormal and Electric
Starting conditions with the Ripple, Distortion Factor and Distortion Spectrum defined in the standard.
In addition, the SPDP03D375 can withstand + 600 V spikes for 10µS. This capability is beyond that
required by MIL-STD-704F.
