As previously addressed, the PLC sends OSSD test pulses with 1-ms logic low to the input of the ISO1211 device. The signals MCU_STO1_In and MCU_STO2_In from the corresponding ISO1211 outputs are periodically monitored to ensure that the digital isolator is functioning properly. If no logic low is detected for more than 4 ms, the MCU concludes the corresponding ISO1211 output is stuck high or shorted to VCC and puts the 3-phase IGBT inverter into a safe state by driving both diagnostic pulses MCU_Diag_Ctrl_Out1 and MCU_Diag_Ctrl_Out2 continuously low. This in turns will disable the six gate drivers, the six IGBT will be turned off and the drive will enter the safe state.
