Description
The BTS5241-2L is a dual channel high-side power switch (two times 25 m) in PG-DSO-12-9 power package
providing embedded protective functions.
The Enhanced IntelliSense pins IS1 and IS2 provide a sophisticated diagnostic feedback signal including current
sense function and open load in off state. The diagnosis signals can be switched on and off by the sense enable
pin SEN.
An integrated ground resistor as well as integrated resistors at each input pin (IN1, IN2, SEN) reduce external
components to a minimum.
The power transistor is built by a N-channel vertical power MOSFET with charge pump. The inputs are ground
referenced CMOS compatible. The device is monolithically integrated in Smart SIPMOS technology.

4 Block Description and Electrical Characteristics
4.1 Power Stages
The power stages are built by a N-channel vertical power MOSFET (DMOS) with charge pump.
4.1.1 Output On-State Resistance
The On-state resistance RDS(ON) depends on the supply voltage as well as the junction temperature Tj. Figure 4
shows these dependencies for the typical On-state resistance. The On-state resistance in reverse polarity mode
is described in Section 4.2.2.
Figure 4 Typical On-State Resistance
4.1.2 Input Circuit
Figure 5 shows the input circuit of the BTS5241-2L. There is an integrated input resistor that makes external
components obsolete. The current source to ground ensures that the device switches off in case of open input pin.
The zener diode protects the input circuit against ESD pulses.
Figure 5 Input Circuit (IN1 and IN2)
A high signal at the input pin causes the power DMOS to switch on with a dedicated slope, which is optimized in
terms of EMC emission.

4.1.3 Inductive Output Clamp
When switching off inductive loads with high-side switches, the potential at pin OUT drops below ground potential,
because the inductance intends to continue driving the current.
Figure 7 Output Clamp (OUT1 and OUT2)
To prevent destruction of the device, there is a voltage clamp mechanism implemented that keeps that negative
output voltage at a certain level (VOUT(CL)). See Figure 7 and Figure 8 for details. Nevertheless, the maximum
allowed load inductance is limited.
Figure 8 Switching an Inductance
Maximum Load Inductance
While demagnetization of inductive loads, energy has to be dissipated in the BTS5241-2L. This energy can be
calculated with following equation:
Following equation simplifies under the assumption of RL = 0:
The energy, which is converted into heat, is limited by the thermal design of the component. See Figure 9 for the
maximum allowed energy dissipation.

Protection Functions
Data Sheet 14 Rev. 1.4, 2008-05-05
4.2 Protection Functions
The device provides embedded protective functions. Integrated protection functions are designed to prevent IC
destruction under fault conditions described in the data sheet. Fault conditions are considered as “outside” normal
operating range. Protection functions are neither designed for continuous nor repetitive operation.
4.2.1 Over-Load Protection
The load current IOUT is limited by the device itself in case of over-load or short circuit to ground. There are two
steps of current limitation which are selected automatically depending on the voltage VDS across the power DMOS.
Please note that the voltage at the OUT pin is Vbb -VDS. Please refer to the following figure for details.
Figure 10 Current Limitation (minimum values)
Current limitation is realized by increasing the resistance of the device which leads to rapid temperature rise inside.
A temperature sensor for each channel causes an over-heated channel to switch off to prevent destruction. After
cooling down with thermal hysteresis, the channel switches on again. Please refer to Figure 11 for details.
Figure 11 Shut Down by Overtemperature
In short circuit condition, the load current is initially limited to IL(LIM). After thermal restart, the current limitation level
is reduced to IL(SCr). The current limitation level is reset to IL(LIM) by switching off the device (VIN = 0 V).
4.2.2 Reverse Polarity Protection
The reverse current through the power transistors has to be limited by the connected loads. Additional power is
dissipated by the integrated ground resistor. The current trough sense pins IS1 and IS2 has to be limited (please
refer to maximum ratings on Page 7). The temperature protection is not active during reverse polarity.
4.2.3 Overvoltage Protection
In addition to the output clamp for inductive loads as described in Section 4.1.3, there is a clamp mechanism for
overvoltage protection. Because of the integrated ground resistor, overvoltage protection does not require external
components.
As shown in Figure 12, in case of supply voltages greater than Vbb(AZ), the power transistors switch on, and the
voltage across logic part is clamped. As a result, the internal ground potential rises to Vbb - Vbb(AZ). Due to the ESD
zener diodes, the potential at pin IN1, IN2 and SEN rises almost to that potential, depending on the impedance of
the connected circuitry.

Diagnosis
4.3 Diagnosis
For diagnosis purpose, the BTS5241-2L provides an Enhanced IntelliSense signal at pins IS1 and IS2 that is
enabled by pin SEN. The current sense signal IIS, a proportional signal to the load current (ratio kILIS = IL / IIS), is
provided as long as no failure mode occurs. In case of open load in OFF-state, the voltage VIS(fault) is fed to the
diagnosis pin.

4.3.1 ON-State Diagnosis
The standard diagnosis signal is a current sense signal proportional to the load current. The accuracy of the ratio
(kILIS = IL / IIS) depends on the temperature. Please refer to Figure 14 for details. Usually a resistor RIS is connected
to the current sense pin. It is recommended to use sense resistors RIS > 500 . A typical value is 4.7 k
Figure 14 Current sense ratio kILIS
1)
In case of over-current as well as overtemperature, the current sense signal is switched off. As a result, one
threshold is enough to distinguish between normal and faulty operation. Open load and over-load can be
differentiated by switching off the channel and using open-load detection in off-state.
Details about timings between the diagnosis signal IIS and the output voltage VOUT and the load current IL in ON-
state can be found in Figure 15.

4.3.2 OFF-State Diagnosis
Details about timings between the diagnosis signal IIS and the output voltage VOUT and the load current IL in OFF-
state can be found in Figure 16.

Diagnosis
Figure 16 Timing of Diagnosis Signal in OFF-state
For open load diagnosis in off-state an external output pull-up resistor (ROL) is necessary, because the integrated
pull-down current IL(PD) causes secure suppression of the open load condition as long as no pull-up resistor is
activated. For calculation of the pull-up resistor, the pull-down current IL(PD) and the open load threshold voltage
VOUT(OL) has to be taken into account.
Ileakage defines the leakage current in the complete system e.g. caused by humidity. Vbb(min) is the minimum supply
voltage at which the open load diagnosis in off-state must be ensured.
To reduce the stand-by current of the system, an open load resistor switch (SOL) is recommended.
4.3.3 Sense Enable Function
The diagnosis signals can be switched off by a low signal at sense enable pin (SEN). See Figure 17 for details on
the timing between SEN pin and diagnosis signal IIS. Please note that the diagnosis is enabled, when no signal is
provided at pin SEN.
Figure 17 Timing of Sense Enable Signal
The SEN pin circuit is designed equal to the input pin. Please refer to Figure 5 for details. The resistors Rlim are
recommended to limit the current through the sense pins IS1 and IS2 in case of reverse polarity and overvoltage.
The stand-by current of the BTS5241-2L is minimized, when both input pins (IN1 and IN2) and the sense enable
pin (SEN) are on low level or left open and VOUT <VOUT(OL). In case of open load in off-state (VOUT >VOUT(OL) and
VIN = 0 V), diagnosis tries to switch on automatically which causes an increase in supply current. To reduce the
stand-by current to a minimum, the open load condition has to be suppressed by opening SOL.
