1 Evaluating TVS Protection Circuits with SPICE A transient-voltage-suppression diode macromodel offers greater accuracy than a standard diode SPICE model. By Jim Lepkowski, Senior Applications Engineer, ON Semiconductor, Phoenix, and William Lepkowski, University of Arizona, Tucson, Ariz. SPICE circuit simulations are a powerful design tool to analyze a system s immunity against conducted EMI surge voltages. SPICE can serve as a valuable tool to validate and optimize the performance of surge-protection circuits using transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) avalanche diodes. The small size, fast response time, low clamping voltage and low cost of TVS diodes provides for an effective solution to solve surge problems. A comparison of SPICE simulations with bench tests demonstrates the ability of TVS avalanche diodes to clamp the surge voltages caused by noise sources such as inductive devices and load switching. I Versus V Characteristics Zener and TVS avalanche diodes have similar electrical characteristics; however, there are significant differences between the two devices. A zener is designed to regulate a steady-state voltage, while a TVS diode is designed to clamp a transient-surge voltage. In addition, TVS diodes typically have a larger junction area than a standard zener, Breakdown Region V C V BR V RWM Leakage Region Current Fig.. A TVS avalanche diode s I versus V characteristics.

The TVS avalanche diode SPICE macro-model is constructed by combining standard Spice devices. which provides the ability to absorb high peak energy. The current versus voltage relationship of a TVS diode is shown in Fig.. The graph in Fig. depicts various diode parameters. I F is the forward current and V F is the associated forward voltage at that current. I R is the reverse leakage current and V RWM is the reverse-working voltage at I R. Typically, V RWM (typ.).8 V BR. Other parameters include I T, the test current; V BR, the breakdown voltage at I T ; and I PP, the maximum reverse peak pulse current. I PP is typically specified with either the 8 2-µs or -µs surge pulse. In addition, V C is the clamping voltage at I PP. TVS Diode SPICE Models The majority of the TVS avalanche diode SPICE models available are created with the SPICE D diode statement. There are several restrictions that limit the accuracy of using the diode D statement to model a TVS avalanche diode. First, the diode statement does not have a provision for defining a separate series resistance for the forward- and 3 4 R Z I R D2 I BV EV=[I BV x R BV )-V D3 ] R BV D3 I T 44

The resistances in the two regions are not equal; thus, it is not possible to accurately model the slope of the current versus voltage characteristic in both regions. Next, the D statement does not have a variable to model the variance of the breakdown voltage with temperature. Table provides the variables available with the PSPICE D diode model. Macro-Model Subcircuit A TVS diode macro-model offers several advantages over the standard diode model available in SPICE, including a more accurate representation of the breakdown characteristic. TVS macro-models are created by combining standard SPICE devices into a subcircuit. Fig. 2 shows a schematic for a macro-model of a TVS avalanche diode. A PSPICE netlist for this model appears below. This particular netlist models the, a dual, bidirectional voltage suppressor from Phoenix-based ON Semiconductor (Fig. 3). ** * PSPICE macro-model *Bidirectional TVS avalanche diode, SOT-23, V BR = 26.4 V *Model simulates of the 2 bidirectional TVS devices *D A Cathode =, D B Cathode = 2, D A,B Common Anode = 3.SUBCKT 2 3 *Bidirectional devices are formed from two unidirectional *devices X 3 HALF X2 3 2 HALF.ENDS *Model HALF represents one bidirectional pair *of a dual device *Anode = 7, Cathode =.SUBCKT HALF 7 *Forward Region *D s CJO term models the capacitance D 2 MDD Variable Parameter SPICE Default Value Units IS Saturation Current E-4 A RS Resistance Ω BV Reverse Breakdown Voltage V IBV Current at Reverse Breakdown Voltage E-3 A N Emission Coeffi cient (η) - XT Saturation Current Temp.

The impedance plot of a TVS avalanche diode is shown in Fig. 4. The measured impedance can be modeled by an equivalent circuit that consists of resistor (RS), inductor (LS) and capacitor (CS) connected in series. RS is equal to the real portion of the complex impedance and is measured at the resonant frequency (fr). At fr, the impedance is purely resistive because the impedance of the LS and CS are equal in magnitude but opposite in polarity. CS is obtained by measuring the capacitance at MHz. LS is obtained from the resonant frequency, which co r re s p o n d s to t h e m i n i mu m impedance. Table 2 provides a correlation of the small signal model to the SPICE macro-model.

Matching the capacitance helps in predicting the shape of the clamped waveform, while including an accurate resistance term is important in predicting the power capability of the device. Simulation Test Results The ability of the SPICE macromodel to predict the performance of a TVS device is shown by comparing simulation and bench data for the 8 2-µs and -µs surge tests. These waveforms are often used to specify the power rating of a TVS device, in addition to representing the surge pulses produced by common noise sources. The surge pulses are defined by their rise time (t R ), measured at % to 9% of the pulse amplitude, and their pulse duration, measured at 5%. The voltage and current waveforms represent the open- and short-circuit that is, R = 2 Ω conditions, respectively. F i g. 5 s h ow s t h e c l a m p i n g performance of a TVS diode for the 8 2-µs surge test. The 8 2-µs surge pulse represents the positive voltage transient created by the sudden interruption of current in a load that is connected in parallel with an electronic module. Low-side drivers that are used to turn on electronic modules, motors and relays are examples of systems that can produce this surge pulse. The clamping performance of a TVS diode for the -µs surge test is shown in Fig. 6. The -µs surge pulse occurs when power is removed from an inductive load and the device under test (DUT) simultaneously. The DUT remains connected in parallel with the inductance, which produces a negative surge voltage. DC motors, solenoids and relays are common examples of inductive loads that can produce this surge pulse. The discrepancy between the measured and simulated - µs clamping voltage is due to the self-heating of the device by the surge current. In addition, the macro-model was calibrated to the 8 2-µs pulse instead of the -µs pulse. The accuracy of the predicted clamping voltage for high-energy, long-duration surges can be improved by calibrating the model with the -µs pulse. Future enhancements of the macro-model will include integrating a thermal model to simulate the increase in the TVS device s junction temperature due to self-heating. Macro-models provide an accurate SPICE representation of the TVS avalanche diode s current and voltage characteristics for most applications. The macro-models solve several of the limitations associated with the SPICE diode D statement and the curvefit models. Macro-models provide a powerful design tool to analyze surge suppression circuits; however, they are not a replacement for hardware development tests. A summary of the limitations of the macro-models is shown in Table 3. Enhancing System Reliability System designers are being challenged to meet stringent surgesuppression requirements. In order to produce competitive products, they must increase the reliability and reduce the size and cost of their circuits. TVS avalanche diodes can be used to increase the surge immunity without significantly adding to the cost, size and complexity of power circuits. The ability of TVS diodes to dissipate surge voltages that contribute to the early failure of semiconductors can be evaluated using SPICE macromodels. PETech References.
