Description
The integrated circuit U2044B is used in relay-controlled automotive flashers. With two output stages, each side of the vehicle is controlled separately. A left and a right direction indicator input with only a small control current makes switch contacts for small loads possible. The separate hazard warning input simplifies the construction of the hazard switch. Lamp outage is indicated by frequency doubling during direction mode. Thanks to extreme low current consumption the U2044B can be directly connected to the battery.

Functional Description
Oscillator (Pin 1 and 14)
Flashing frequency, f1, is determined by the R1C1 components as follows (see Figure 1): 1 - Hz f 1 » ---------------------------------R 1 ´ C 1 ´ 1.5 where C1 £ 47 µF R1 = 6.8 kW to 180 kW
www.DataSheet4U.com
In the case of a lamp outage, the oscillator frequency is switched to the lamp outage frequency f2 with f2 » 2.2 ´ f1. Duty cycle in normal flashing mode: Duty cycle in lamp outage mode: 50% 40% (bright phase)
Start Input Right and Left Flashing is disabled as long as the input comparator is tied to GND (pull-down resistor R7 or R5). The high-side flasher switch left or right changes the comparator status and (Pin 2 and 3)
enables the output stage at pin 11 or Pin 13. R6 and R4 are protection resistors for the input stage. With an open flasher switch the current consumption is only I < 10 µA. The IC is kept in stand-by mode until there is a voltage drop of V » 6.9 V at the pull-down resistor. Direction mode can only be activated when the ignition switch is in the ON-position as shown in Figure 1.
Start Input Hazard Warning (Pin 4) Supply Voltage Sense (Pin 5) Control Input Relay 1 and 2 (Pin 6 and 7) Lamp Outage Detection (Pin 8)
In contrast to the direction switches, the hazard input is a low-side type. The pull-up resistor R10 provides the off-state. R3 is a protection resistor for the input stage. Hazard warning can be activated independent of the ignition switch position. This pin supplies the lamp outage comparator at pin 8 and is externally connected to the battery (Kl 30). The feedback detects the bright phase and the dark phase and enables the oscillator.
The lamp current is monitored via an external shunt resistor, RShunt and an internal comparator, K1, with its reference voltage of typically 81 mV (VS = 12 V). The outage of one lamp out of two lamps is detected according to the following calculation: Nominal current of 1 lamp: 21 W/(VS = 12 V): Nominal current of 2 lamps: 2 ´ 21 W / (VS = 12 V): Ilamp = 1.75 A Ilamp = 3.5 A
We recommend setting the detection threshhold in the middle of the current range: Ioutage » 2.7 A Thus the shunt resistor is calculated as: RShunt = VT (K1)/Ioutage RShunt = 81 mV/2.7 A = 30 mW Comparator K1's reference voltage is matched to the characteristics of filament lamps (see section “Control Signal Threshold”).

The combination of the shunt resistor and the resistance of the wire harness prevents pin 8 from a too high voltage in the case of shorted lamps.
Supply Voltage (Pin 9) GND (Pin 10)
This pin supplies the oscillator, the comparators and the logic parts of the IC. The integrated circuit is protected against transients according to ISO-TR 7637-3 level 3 via resistor R2 to ground (-31). An integrated protection circuit together with external resistors R2, R3, R4, R6, R8 and R9 limits the current pulses in the IC. The IC is also protected against reversed battery. The relay control outputs are high-side driver.
