8.3.2.3 Independent mode

In this mode, the two half-bridges are configured to be used as two independent half-bridges. The Table 8-7 shows the logic table for bridge control. For load illustration, refer the Load Summary section.

1 0 1 0 H(5) L ISNS1(1) ACTIVE

For the SPI variant, it is possible to have independent Hi-Z control of both half-bridges through equivalent bits, S_DRVOFF & S_DRVOFF2 in the SPI_IN register, when the SPI_IN register has been unlocked. Table 8-8 shows the logic table for bridge control using the pin & register combined inputs. Refer to - Register - Pin control for details on the combined inputs shown in Table 8-8.

(1) Current sourcing out of device (VM → OUTx → Load)
(5) If internal ITRIP regulation is enabled and ITRIP level is reached, then OUTx is forced "L" for a fixed time

In this mode, the device behavior is as listed below:

  • Load current can be sensed only for current from VM → OUTx → Load. So current sense is not possible for high-side loads
  • The current on IPROPI pin is the sum of the high-side sense current from both the half-bridges. This limits the ITRIP current regulation feature as a combined current regulation, rather than as truly independent.
  • Slew rate configurability is limited for low-side recirculation (low-side loads)
  • Active state open load diagnostics (OLA) is possible only for high-side loads
  • For the HW variant, it is NOT possible to have independent Hi-Z control of each half-bridge. Asserting DRVOFF pin high will Hi-Z both the half-bridges.
