LM8365: Brownout function issue with Micropower Undervoltage-Sensing LM8365BALMF27/NOPB

Part Number: LM8365
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM8364,

Dear Team

Scope : to pass Voltage dips test 10ms

I need a support for Correct brownout function ic for UCC28180D PFC controller 1000W , i tried with LM8365 reset ic based on  your thread using LM8364. 

Schematic added and Label Cven connected to 6 th pin of UCC28180D 

Schematic.JPG

Input voltage 124VAC  the output should be > 2.85v at the 2nd pin of LM8365  but there is a voltage down and up .

The screenshot shows input voltage around 307V dc ( bus voltage)

The screenshot shows input voltage around 307V without Lm8365

  • Hi,

    Immediately I notice that the RESET pin of LM8365 in your schematic is pulled up to 15V, which violates the absolute maximum rating of the device. We have a range of high voltage supervisors that will likely be a better choice for this application. A device such as TPS3842 or potentially TPS371K-Q1 may be more appropriate for this application.

    I do not have a clear understanding of the application, are you able to provide a more complete schematic showing how LM8365 is connected to the rest of the circuit? Additionally, oscilloscope captures showing both the input and reset pin of LM8365 will be helpful.

  • Hi Henry 

    Thank you for your mail, i found Reset pin voltage maximum is 6V so I updated with voltage divider, i ll take forward as you suggested high voltage ic in further steps , please check the schematic as you requested

    Also captured the oscillasope

    Top one is at reset pin diode output

    Bottom one is at 2nd pin 

  • Hi,

    Thank you for providing the full schematic. I believe the issue may be related to the LM8365 not getting enough current and therefore releasing the reset signal. Can you try increasing the value of C31 to 0.1µF and test again?

    -Henry

  • If i add 0.1uf at C31 while  the voltage dips test  at 10 ms fails ic UCC28180D.

  • Hi,

    We are still looking into this issue and will have a response by Monday (Pacific time). In the mean time are you able to provide oscilloscope captures with the 0.1uF C31 capacitor?

    -Henry

  • Hi,

    Please find attached oscilloscope capture for capacitor C31 changed to 0.1uf 

    Input voltage 210 VDC Approx

  • Hi,

    Thank you for the oscilloscope screenshots.

    Based on C33 = 1uF, I would expect for the RESET output to be asserted (logic low) for ~1.2s when the voltage on the input (pin 2) rises above 2.7V. In the scope captures RESET appears to only be asserted for ~140ms. To ensure that the device is functioning correctly, are you able to remove the LM8365 from the circuit to test it along with the delay capacitor in isolation?

    -Henry

  • Hi

    Please find the capture as you requested, C31 =0.1uf, Vin=218V dc , R15=80k.

    With C31

    Without C31

    With C31

  • Hi,

    Sorry I should have clarified, I would like to ensure that the LM8365 is functioning properly completely on it's own, in a configuration similar to what is shown in the datasheet:

    Are you able to test the above configuration with CD = 1uF, sweeping VIN below 2.7V and back above 3V to ensure that the device performs similar to what is shown in figure 1 of the datasheet?

    Thanks,

    -Henry

  • Hi

    In this i changed the Pullup resitor to Vin 680K R16  , Changed C33 1uf , Previuos test was with 0.1uF , sorry for this mistake.

    i have checked the test circuit without Gate resitor 10R , the circuit works well.

    Below image is without PFC mosfet gate resitor

    While gate resistor Connected it seems like this, >2.85V Vin 

    Vin Below<2.75

  • Thank you for the additional details.

    From the oscilloscope captures, assuming that the yellow trace is the input and green is the reset output, it looks like the LM8365 is in fact performing correctly. When the input drops below 2.7V, the reset asserts (goes low). When the input rises above 2.7V again, the reset de-asserts (goes high) after a delay. Do you expect different behavior from the device? If so, please explain.

    -Henry

  • Yes yellow is Input and green is reset output, 

    Yes LM8365 works correctly with out PFC turnrd ON, means i removed Mosfet gate resitor.

    below imgage shows clearly there is multiple reset if i connec Mosfet gate resitor (PFC).  need solution for this !

  • Hi,

    I'd like to clarify that the LM8365 is working as expected in the latest oscilloscope capture you've sent. I've created a timing diagram to explain the behavior more clearly.

    At time t1, when the input voltage is below 1V, there is not enough voltage to pull-down the reset output, so it will be a logic high. Once the input rises above 1V but is below 2.7V (t2) the reset output will assert, pulling down the reset. Then when the input rises above 2.7V (t3), the reset will release after ~1.2s. Once the delay has elapsed (t4), the reset goes high, which seems to be causing the input voltage to drop and therefore the reset asserts again (t5). After a short period, the input rises again (t6) which causes the reset to release after ~1.2s, and the cycle repeats.

    Since the LM8365 is working as expected, there is not much more support I can provide in this thread. I recommend creating a new thread related to the UCC28180D if additional assistance is required.

    Thanks,

    -Henry
