BTS4130QGA
Diagnostic Mechanism
7 Diagnostic Mechanism
For diagnosis purpose, the BTS4130QGA provides status pin.
7.1 ST 0/1/2/3 Pin
BTS4130QGA status pins are an open drain, active low circuit. Figure 12 shows the equivalent circuitry. As long
as no “hard” failure mode occurs (Short circuit to GND / Over temperature or open load in OFF), the signal is
permanently high, and due to a required external pull-up to the logic voltage will exhibit a logic high in the
application. A suggested value for the
R
PU ST01
is 15 kΩ.
