B
Status of high-side and low-side switches B; Open drain output.
This pin must be connected to an external pull up resistor. When
externally pulled low, it disables half-bridge B. In case of fault
detection (thermal shutdown of a high-side FET or excessive
ON-state voltage drop across a low-side FET), this pin is pulled
low by the device (see Table 12: Truth table in fault conditions
(detected on OUTA).

Name Description
Logic control
Allows the turn-on and the turn-off of the high-side and the
low-side switches according to the Tabl e 1 1 .
Overvoltage + undervoltage
Shut down the device outside the range [4.5 V to 24 V] for the
battery voltage.
High-side, low-side and clamp
voltage
Protect the high-side and the low-side switches from the
high-voltage on the battery line in all configuration for the motor.
High-side and low-side driver
Drive the gate of the concerned switch to allow a proper R
DS(on)
for the leg of the bridge.
Linear current limiter
Limits the motor current, by reducing the high-side switch
gate-source voltage when short-circuit to ground occurs.
High-side and low-side
overtemperature protection
In case of short-circuit with the increase of the junction’s
temperature, it shuts down the concerned driver to prevent its
degradation and to protect the die.
Low-side overload detector
Detects when low-side current exceeds shutdown current and
latches off the concerned low-side.
Charge pump
Provides the voltage necessary to drive the gate of the external
PowerMOS used for the reverse polarity protection
