PRODUCTION DATA
The RST/EN pin has two functions. The pin is used to enable or shutdown the outputs of the driver and to reset the fault signaled on the FLT pin after DESAT is detected. RST/EN pin must to be pulled up to enable the device; when the pin is pulled down, the device is in disabled status. By default the driver is disabled with the internal 50kΩ pulldown resistor at this pin.
When the driver is latched after DESAT is detected, the FLT pin and output are latched low and must be reset by the RST/EN pin. The microcontroller must send a signal to RST/EN pin after the fault to reset the driver. The driver does not respond until after the mute time tFLTMUTE. The reset signal must be held low for at least tRSTFIL after the mute time.
This pin can also be used to automatically reset the driver. The continuous input signal IN+ or IN- can be applied to RST/EN pin. There is no separate reset signal from the microcontroller when configuring the driver this way. If the PWM is applied to the non-inverting input IN+, then IN+ can also be tied to RST/EN pin. If the PWM is applied to the inverting input IN–, then a NOT logic is needed between the PWM signal from the microcontroller and the RST/EN pin. Using either configuration results in the driver being reset in every switching cycle without an extra control signal from microcontroller tied to RST/EN pin. One must ensure the PWM off-time is greater than tRSTFIL in order to reset the driver in cause of a DESAT fault.
