SLDS272 September 2024 DRV81620-Q1
ADVANCE INFORMATION
The device has the following operation modes:
Sleep mode
Idle mode
Active mode
Limp Home mode
The transition between operation modes is determined according to following levels and states:
nSLEEP pin logic level
INx pins logic level
ENx bits state
ACT bit state
EN_PWM0 and EN_PWM1 bits state
The state diagram including the possible transitions is shown in Figure 7-5. The behaviour of the device as well as some parameters may change according to the operation mode of the device. Also, due to the undervoltage detection circuitry, some changes within the same operation mode can be seen.
The operation mode of the device can be observed by:
Status of output channels
Status of SPI registers
Current consumption at VDD pin (IVDD)
Current consumption at VM pin (IVM)
The default operation mode to switch ON the loads is Active mode. If the device is not in Active mode and a request to switch ON one or more outputs comes (via SPI or via Input pins), it will switch into Active or Limp Home mode, according to nSLEEP pin status.
The channel turn-ON time is as defined by parameter tON when the device is in Active mode or in Limp Home mode. In all other cases, it is necessary to add the transition time required to reach one of the two aforementioned Power Supply modes (as shown in Figure 7-6).
Table 7-5 shows the correlation between device operation modes, VM and VDD supply voltages, and state of the most important functions (channel control, SPI communication and SPI registers).
