FZL 4145 D
Typical Application Circuits
The load conditions at Q depend on the permissible power dissipation of the used power
transistors. The pulsed power dissipation in case of a short circuit must be observed.
In order to suppress oscillations of the power stage in case of a short circuit, a capacitor
C at Q1 to Q4 is necessary if e.g. fast switching transistors are used.
Typical value X of C: approx. 20 nF.
The output circuit 1 is suited for currents up to approx. IQ = 100 mA.
The output circuit 2 and 3 are suited for currents up to approx. IQ = 2 A. A minimum
power dissipation can be achieved with circuit 3.
A break key in parallel to CT allows a manual switch-on in case of short-circuit.
RP = Precision resistor (current measurement)
CT = 0.8 x tp (nF, µs)
tp = Short-circuit current pulse length
Note: Circuit 1 does not permit a capacitor between Q1 and Q4 and the collector.
Circuit 2 does not permit a capacitor between Q1 and Q4 and base or emitter,
respectively.
Otherwise too high current spikes would arise in case of a short circuit.
