PRODUCTION DATA.
PMDINTZ is an active low open drain output that will be asserted if the DLPA100 goes into thermal shutdown at 165°C. The open drain output is held low by using the DLPA100 internal regulator even though the rest of the DLPA100 device is shut down. This internal regulator only depends on 12 V being operational to allow retention of the data in the latched status registers if any of the supplies are lost. PMDINTZ is primarily used as an interrupt to the DLP controller but can also be used to drive an LED overtemp indicator on the projector.
The thermal warning signal (TWARN) can also trigger an interrupt if enabled. Over-current events for the three DLP controller supplies can also cause PMDINTZ to go low. The DLP controller processor can clear or set PMDINTZ by writing to the latches that capture the interrupts. The DLP controller can also mask any of the interrupts (except TSD) via the enable interrupt register.
The raw status register can be read back in real time to monitor the fault condition. If the faults are present for a valid time, they will be latched into the latched status register.
