JAJSH81B April 2019 – February 2021 TPS929120-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS929120-Q1 monitors the FlexWire interface for the communication with an internal watchdog timer. Any successful non-broadcast communication with correct CRC and address matching target device automatically resets the timer . If the watchdog timer overflows, device automatically switches to fail-safe state as indicated by external FS input. If FS = 0, the device switches to fail-safe state 0, If FS = 1, the device switches to fail-safe state 1.
The watchdog timer is programmable by 4-bit register CONF_WDTIMER. The TPS929120-Q1 can directly enter fail-safe states from normal mode by burning EEP_WDTIMER to 0xFh. Disabling the watchdog timer by setting CONF_WDTIMER to 0x0h prevents the device from getting into fail-safe state.
