7.3.6 nFAULT Pin

The nFAULT pin has an open-drain output and should be pulled up to a 5-V, 3.3-V or 1.8-V supply. When a fault is detected, the nFAULT pin will be logic low. nFAULT pin will be high after power-up. For a 5-V pullup, the nFAULT pin can be tied to the DVDD pin with a resistor. For a 3.3-V or 1.8-V pullup, an external supply must be used.
