Pin

Name

Description

1

GND

Ground reference for I

SET

and Flag pins. Most negative terminal of the

device. No other pin should go below this voltage.

2

C

T

An external capacitor is connected to this pin and is used to determine
the period for constant-current mode and the timeout before restarting.
To reduce excessive heating during the soft start mode capacitors less
than 220nF are reocmmended.

3

ISET

Determines the load current trip level or constant current level. This can
be driven via a DC voltage or via a µC PWM output.

V

SENSE

= (V

ISET

-150mV)/10

An input <100mV will disable the high-side switch (i.e. set I

OUT

= 0)

If left open-circuit, an accurate internal DC reference of 2.1V and source
impedance of 50k

⍀ is used to set the voltage on this pin. (External

drivers must take this reference into account.)

4

Flag

This is an active low open collector output that goes low whenever the
current limit set by the choice of R

SENSE

and I

SET

is reached or in the

event of a shorted load.

5

Drive

This is the output drive pin to the external high side referred switch on
the ZXCT1032, capable of driving PMOS and PNP transistors.

6

IN-

The load referred input to the current monitor control loop.

7

N/C

Not connected

8

IN+

Acts as both the supply pin to the ZXCT1032 and the supply referred
sense input to the current monitor control loop.
