FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
6.2.5 5 V-CAN voltage regulator for CAN and analog MUX
This regulator is supplied from the VSUP/2 pin. A capacitor is required at 5 V-CAN pin. Analog MUX and part of the LIN interfaces are
supplied from 5 V-CAN. Consequently, the 5 V-CAN must be ON in order to have Analog MUX operating and to have the LIN interface
operating in TXD/RXD mode.
The 5 V-CAN regulator is OFF by default and must be turned ON by SPI. In Debug mode, the 5 V-CAN is ON by default.
6.2.6 V auxiliary output, 5.0 and 3.3 V selectable
(VB-Aux, VC-Aux, and VCaux) - Q2
The VAUX block is used to provide an auxiliary voltage output, 5.0 or 3.3 V, selectable by the SPI. It uses an external PNP pass transistor
for flexibility and power dissipation constraints. The external recommended bipolar transistors are MJD42C or BCP52-16.
An overcurrent and undervoltage detectors are provided.
VAUX is controlled via the SPI, and can be turned ON or OFF. VAUX low threshold detection and overcurrent information will disable VAUX,
and are reported in the SPI and can generate INT. VAUX is OFF by default and must be turned ON by the SPI.
6.2.7 Undervoltage reset and reset function (RST)
The RST pin is an open drain structure with an internal pull-up resistor. The LS driver has limited current capability when asserted low, in
order to tolerate a short to 5.0 V. The RST pin voltage is monitored in order to detect failure (e.g. RST pin shorted to 5.0 V or GND).
The RST pin reports an undervoltage condition to the MCU at the VDD pin, as a RST failure in the watchdog refresh operation. VDD
undervoltage reset also operates in LP VDD ON mode.
Two VDD undervoltage thresholds are included. The upper (typically 4.65 V, RST-TH1-5) can lead to a Reset or an Interrupt. This is selected
by the SPI. When “RST-TH2-5“is selected, in Normal mode, an INT is asserted when VDD falls below “RST-TH1-5“, then, when VDD falls
below “RST-TH2-5” a Reset will occur. This will allow the MCU to operate in a degraded mode (i.e., with 4.0 V VDD).
6.2.8 I/O pins (I/O-0: I/O-3)
I/Os are configurable input/output pins. They can be used for small loads or to drive external transistors. When used as output drivers, the
I/Os are either a HS or LS type. They can also be set to high-impedance. I/Os are controlled by the SPI and at power on, the I/Os are set
as inputs. They include overload protection by temperature or excess of a voltage drop.
When I/O-0/-1/-2/-3 voltage is greater than VSUP/2 voltage, the leakage current (II/O_LEAK) parameter is not applicable
• I/O-0 and I/O-1 will have current flowing into the device through three diodes limited by an 80 kOhm resistor (in series).
• I/O-2 and I/O-3 will have unlimited current flowing into the device through one diode.
In LP mode, the state of the I/O can be turned ON or OFF, with extremely low power consumption (except when there is a load). Protection
is disabled in LP mode. When cyclic sense is used, I/O-0 is the HS/LS switch, I/O-1, -2 and -3 are the wake inputs. I/O-2 and I/O-3 pins
share the LIN Master pin function.
6.2.9 VSENSE input (VSENSE)
This pin can be connected to the battery line (before the reverse battery protection diode), via a serial resistor and a capacitor to GND. It
incorporates a threshold detector to sense the battery voltage and provide a battery early warning. It also includes a resistor divider to
measure the VSENSE voltage via the MUX-OUT pin.
6.2.10 MUX-output (MUXOUT)
The MUX-OUT pin (Figure 22) delivers an analog voltage to the MCU A/D input. The voltage to be delivered to MUX-OUT is selected via
the SPI, from one of the following functions: VSUP/1, VSENSE, I/O-0, I/O-1, Internal 2.5 V reference, die temperature sensor, VDD current
copy.
Voltage divider or amplifier is inserted in the chain, as shown in Figure 22.
For the VDD current copy, a resistor must be added to the MUX-OUT pin, to convert current into voltage. Device includes an internal 2.0 k
resistor selectable by the SPI.
Voltage range at MUX-OUT is from GND to VDD. It is automatically limited to VDD (max 3.3 V for 3.3 V part numbers).
The MUX-OUT buffer is supplied from 5 V-CAN regulator, so the 5 V-CAN regulator must be ON in order to have:
