Automatic Single-LED Short-Circuit (AutoSS) Detection in Normal State

In order to check LED single-LED short-circuit issue during lighting up, the TPS929121-Q1 also provides automatically single-LED short-circuit (AutoSS) diagnostic. Setting the register CONF_AUTOSS to 1 enables the scanning of each current out channel at the beginning of every PWM cycle. The AutoSS detection takes two PWM cycles to complete scanning. The channel OUT0 to OUT5 are scanned in first cycle and the OUT6 to OUT11 are scanned in second cycle as depicted in Figure 8-6.

On PWM rising edge, the device waits for a programmable delay T(ODPW) programmable by CONF_ODPW to allow output voltage settle and start AD conversion. The minimal pulse width of PWM must be longer than programmable delay T(ODPW) plus 6 times AD conversion time T(CONV) to make sure 6 output channels can be scanned in one PWM cycle. The TPS929121-Q1 checks low-supply warning to avoid reporting the single-LED short-circuit fault by mistake in low-dropout mode. If the supply voltage is truly lower than V(ADCLOWSUPTH), the single-LED short-circuit fault cannot be detected and reported. If the supply voltage is high enough, and any one channel output voltage is less than pre-set threshold V(ADCSHORTTH), the TPS92910-Q1 pulls ERR pin down with pulsed current sink for 50 µs to report fault and set the flag register including FLAG_ODDIAGCHx, FLAG_OUT and FLAG_ERR to 1. The master controller must write 1 to CLR_FAULT register to clear the fault flags. The single-LED short circuit threshold V(ADCSHORTTH) is programmable by CONF_ADCSHORTTH. If any channel is disabled by CONF_ENCHx to 0, the AutoSS diagnostics skips the channel.

During the single-led short-circuit diagnostics, the ADC keeps the on-demand ADC conversion request pending until single-led short-circuit diagnostics finished. TI does not recommend using external PWM inputs when AutoSS is required to avoid false diagnostics.

When CONF_AUTOSS is set to 1, selecting MAXOUT by writing 05h to CONF_ADCCH automatically outputs the ADC conversion result to register ADC_OUT for the output channel with the highest voltage in all scanned channels. The master controller can adjust the previous power stage output voltage based on the voltage difference read back from register ADC_SUPPLY and ADC_OUT to minimize the voltage drop on the TPS929121-Q1 as well as temperature rising if the output voltage of previous power stage is programmable by digital interface.
