A single 4-channel 2:1 switch can be use to switch between SPI and thermistor input. Single switches available at TI and can be powered from CVDD as shown in Figure 7-3.
Enabling TSREF selects the “B” paths of the switch, which are all connected to NTCs for temperature measurement. Disabling TSREF disables all the thermistor networks, and also selects the “A” paths of the switch to allow SPI communication. This configuration has no impact to the temperature measurement diagnostic and will still have ASIL-D compliance on the temperature measurement.
