JAJSDP5D February 2016 – March 2018 LM36273
PRODUCTION DATA.
If the voltage at VNEG rises (towards GND) to above 84% of its programmed value (typical), the LM36273 sets the VNEG_SHORT flag, register 0x0F bit[2]. A readback of register 0x0F is required to clear the flag. The outcome of a VNEG_SHORT detection depends on the configuration of the bias short-circuit mode option, register 0x0A bits[7:6]. The options are report-only flag, shut down VPOS/VNEG, and shut down VPOS/VNEG and backlight. To prevent narrow spikes from falsely triggering a VNEG short circuit condition, the LM36273 provides four programmable VNEG short circuit filter options: 100 µs, 500 µs, 1 ms, and 2 ms. These are selected in register 0x0B bits[1:0].
