When a HW_LOCK_ILIMIT event happens in this mode,
the status of MOSFET will be configured by HW_LOCK_ILIMIT_MODE and nFAULT is driven
low. Status of MOSFET during HW_LOCK_ILIMIT:
- HW_LOCK_ILIMIT_MODE = 011b: All MOSFETs are
turned OFF.
- HW_LOCK_ILIMIT_MODE = 100b: All low-side MOSFETs
are turned ON
- HW_LOCK_ILIMIT_MODE = 101b: All high-side MOSFETs
are turned ON
The CONTROLLER_FAULT and HW_LOCK_ILIMIT bits are set to 1b in the fault status
registers. Normal operation resumes automatically (gate driver operation and the
nFAULT pin is released) after the t
LCK_RETRY (configured by LCK_RETRY)
time lapses. The CONTROLLER_FAULT and HW_LOCK_ILIMIT bits are reset to 0b after the
t
LCK_RETRY period expires.
