MOTOROLA ANALOG INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DEVICE DATA
Figure 12. MOSFET or LED Driver Output
The sequence of commands (from Normal mode with inputs
tri-state) required to set up the device to drive a MOSFET are
as follows:
wetting current timer enable command
–Disable SPn
wetting current timer (refer to
Table 4
, page 14).
metallic command
–Set SPn to 16 mA or 2.0 mA gate
drive current (refer to
Table 3
, page 13).
settings command
–Set SPn as switch-to-battery (refer to
Table 1
, page 12).
tri-state command
–Disable tri-state for SPn (refer to
Table 5
, page 14).
After the
tri-state command
has been sent (tri-state disable),
the MOSFET gate will be pulled to ground. From this point
forward the MOSFET may be turned on and off by sending the
settings command
:
settings command
–SPn as switch-to-ground (MOSFET
ON).
settings command
–SPn as switch-to-battery (MOSFET
OFF).
Monitoring of the MOSFET drain in the OFF state provides
open load detection. This is done by using an SGn input
comparator. With the SGn input in tri-state, the load will pull up
the SGn input to battery. With open load the SGn terminal is
pulled down to ground through an external resistor. The open
load is indicated by a logic [1] in the SO data bit.
The
analog command
may be used to monitor the drain
voltage in the MOSFET ON state. By sourcing 2.0 mA of current
to the 1.5 k
resistor, the analog voltage on the SGn terminal
will be approximately:
As the voltage on the drain of the MOSFET increases, so
does the voltage on the SGn terminal. With the SGn terminal
selected as analog, the MCU may perform the A/D conversion.
Using this method for controlling unclamped inductive loads
is not recommended. Inductive flyback voltages greater than
V
PWR
may damage the IC.
The SP0:SP7 terminals of this device may also be used to
send signals from one module to another. Operation is similar
to the gate control of a MOSFET.
For LED applications a resistor in series with the LED is
recommended but not required. The switch-to-ground inputs
are recommended for LED application. To drive the LED use
the following commands:
wetting current timer enable command
–Disable SGn
wetting current timer.
metallic command
–Set SGn to 16 mA.
From this point forward the LED may be turned on and off using
the
tri-state command
:
tri-state command
–Disable tri-state for SGn (LED ON).
tri-state command
–Enable tri-state for SGn (LED OFF).
These parameters are easily programmed via SPI commands
in Normal mode.
