6.3.5.2 Direction Command (DIR1 and DIR2)

These pins are tri-state function pins. DIR1 controls CH-1, and DIR2 controls CH-2.

  1. When the DIR1 pin is actively pulled above 2V (logic state of 1), CH-1 operates in buck mode, and current flows from the HV-Port to the LV-Port.
  2. When the DIR1 pin is actively pulled below 1V (logic state of 0), CH-1 operates in boost mode, and current flows from the LV-Port to the HV-Port.
  3. When the DIR1 pin is in the third state that is different from the above two, it is considered an invalid command and CH-1 remains in standby mode regardless of the EN1 states. This tri-state function prevents faulty operation when losing the DIR signal connection to the MCU.
  4. When DIR1 changes the logic state between 1 and 0 dynamically during operation, the transition causes the SS/DEM1 pin to discharge first to below 0.3V, then the SS/DEM1 pin pulldown is released and CH-1 goes through a new soft-start process to produce the current in the new direction. This eliminates the surge current during the direction change.
  5. Similar behaviors for DIR2, CH-2, EN2, and SS/DEM2.
  6. The built-in 10µs glitch filter prevents errant operation by noise on the DIR1 and DIR2 signals.
