Functional Description
3.1
Operation Modes
Atmel® ATA5279 features five operation modes. They are:
● Power-down mode (reset state)
●
●
●
●
Idle mode
Operating mode
Shutdown mode
Diagnosis mode
Power-down mode is active after supply voltages have been applied to the chip. No internal circuitry is active in this mode
and as such power consumption is minimal. If no operation of the chip is demanded, it should be kept in this state. To enter
power-down mode, a negative pulse on the NRES pin for at least tNRES,min is required.
After wake-up from power-down mode by a logic high signal at the S_CS pin, the chip is in idle mode. That is, the oscillator
is running and the control logic waits for commands coming from the serial interface. Furthermore, the selected output driver
stage is ready for operation (the voltage on the corresponding output pin AxP is approximately half the battery supply
voltage). The current consumption of the chip is now mainly defined by the cross current through the active driver stage
(please refer also to Section 3.2 “Coil Driver Stage” on page 6).
When processing coil driving commands, the chip is in operation mode. From the interface point of view, there is no
difference from the idle mode; however, current consumption is now higher as the output driver stages are operating and,
depending on the selected output current, the DC-DC converter is also operating.
If a connection failure (short circuit on any of the coil connection lines) is detected, the ATA5279 enters the shutdown mode
to protect itself from damage. In this mode, the interface operates in idle mode but with all power stages shutdown and no LF
transmission command processing. This mode should be exited using the Reset Fault Status command (see below),
however, it can also be exited by resetting the chip.
In diagnosis mode, the output driver stages are also disabled. In their place, high-ohmic current sources are activated that
can be programmed via the serial interface in order to check the coil connection lines for failures. This mode can be exited by
an appropriate SPI command or by resetting the chip.

Coil Driver Stage
The driver stage for each coil consists of two N-channel DMOS transistors. The low-side transistor is in Darlington
configuration to maintain a source-follower characteristic.

In the graphic above, the names of internal pins have a grey shaded background, and the hatched area is not part of the
driver stage itself but only used in diagnostic mode (please refer to the Diagnosis Block description for further information on
this topic).
The driver stages are supplied by the three VDS pins, which are tied together inside the chip.
A quiescence current regulation ensures low cross current while in idle state. The output transistors are monitored for current
and temperature to protect them from damage caused by irregular load conditions or too high ambient temperatures.
The driving stage is optimized for signal quality to ensure low harmonic distortions.
Two groups of driver stages are integrated: the first group is intended for high-current coils, whereas the second group
drives low-current coils. Note that there are certain coil impedance ranges for each driver group. If the connected load
exceeds this range, proper current regulation and/or data modulation is not guaranteed.
While in idle mode and especially during a transmission, the driver stages of the five inactive (i.e., not selected) coils are
switched to high-side outputs, i.e., the positive coil connection lines are tied to the VDS potential. The same applies to the
return line inputs AxN. These measures ensure minimum parasitic currents in the disabled coils while the selected coil is
operating.

3.3
Sine Wave Generator
The sinusoidal coil-driving signal is internally generated. Its amplitude is dependant on the measured coil current, and the
frequency is derived from the oscillator stage. In conjunction with the output driver stages, the generated signal is optimized
for low harmonic distortions.
The peak-to-peak amplitude of the sinusoidal signal is directly defined by the voltage on the external integration capacitor
connected to the CINT pin. This voltage, with an offset subtracted, is internally used to generate a low-voltage sine wave
signal, which is in turn amplified and level-shifted up to the desired output level.
The output signal itself has a DC offset close to the half of the supply voltage, and the maximum possible amplitude has
about 3V distance to each of the supplies. Figure 3-3 illustrates this.

VDS
VOUT,max
0.5 x VDS

GND
In application, the output coil current is the fixed valued (selectable via SPI). Hence, the required output voltage is calculated
as follows:
V Out,p = I Coil,p × ( Z Coil + R DSon,HRS/LRS + R Shunt )
Here, ZCoil is the complex impedance of the coil, RDSon,HRS/LRS is the on-resistance of the appropriate return line current
selector (see also Section 8. “Functional Parameters” on page 29) and RShunt is the resistance of the externally applied
current sense shunt resistor (typ. 1Ω, see also Section 4. “Application” on page 26).
3.4
Boost Converter
The coil driver stage can be supplied by a DC-DC converter in boost configuration. Together with an externally applied
choke, freewheeling diode and capacitor, the battery voltage can be brought up to the required value, which is dependant on
the coil's impedance and the selected current. The converter is only enabled during an active transmission. The peak current
through the low-side switch IVL and the output voltage VVDS are measured to shut down the converter operation in case one
of the values exceeds its upper limit.
Note:
There is no dedicated temperature monitoring for the boost converter low-side switch. For further details,
please refer to Section 4.1 “Application Hints” on page 27.
The switching frequency is, like the coil driving signal, derived from the oscillator stage and 125kHz in value when using an
8MHz input clock. The least possible time the boost converter takes to generate the maximum possible output voltage from
the minimum possible input voltage is dependant on several parameters. The values of the external components (choke
inductance, charge capacitance and CINT integration capacitance) greatly effects this time.

ATA5279/ATA5279C [DATASHEET]
9125P–RKE–05/14
3.5
Coil Current Sensing (Zero Cross, Sample and Hold, Integrator)
The coil current flows through an external shunt resistor, causing a current-dependant voltage, which is fed into the IC via
the VSHS pin. By monitoring the zero crossing events of this signal, the phase of the coil current is known and hence the
positive peak value can be sampled. The VSHS voltage is sampled at T/4 after the zero cross event.
The peak coil current is then subtracted from an internal reference voltage that is dependant on the selected coil current,
which results in the regulation difference.
An amplifier stage converts this difference into a current, which is then fed into an externally applied integration capacitor
connected to the CINT pin. The resulting voltage on this capacitor directly influences the amplitude of the sine wave signal. It
also determines the supply voltage generated by the boost converter, if the necessary coil supply voltage exceeds the actual
supply voltage level. Note that during an active transmission, this voltage is internally limited to VCINT,max.
Note that in idle mode, the voltage on the integration capacitor is kept at a value that corresponds to the battery supply
voltage. This ensures that the boost converter, if needed, always performs a soft start from the battery voltage level on.
The desired current can be selected via the SPI. A total of 20 predefined steps are available, divided into the following
sections:
● The lower four steps (50mA to 200mA) are intended for the low-current coils only
●
●
The next ten steps (250mA to 700mA) are intended for both types of coils
The upper six steps (750mA to 1A) are intended only for the high-current coils
The IC allows the use of a current step not intended for a particular driver group; however, in this case, full functionality,
especially a stabilized coil current, cannot be guaranteed. See also the Control Logic block description for an overview over
the commands.
3.6
Diagnosis
The diagnosis stage monitors both the positive (AxP) and negative (AxN) connection lines of the six coils. If one of these
lines is shorted to battery supply or to ground, the following measures are taken for protection and diagnostic reasons:
● All coil driver stages are shut down, i.e., put into high impedance state
●
●
●
The shunt resistor is disconnected from the coil return lines
The reason for the fault shutdown is stored in the fault register
An interrupt request is triggered (see also control logic block)
In addition to short circuits, a disconnected coil (i.e., open load) or an excessive junction temperature can also lead to such a
fault shutdown.
Note that this type of diagnosis is carried out continuously during normal operation of the IC to protect both the IC and the
peripherals from damage.
It must be avoided to design the system's load profile in such a way that the protection features of the chip are triggered
under normal operating conditions. Consecutive triggering of the overtemperature shutdown may lead to a reduced lifetime.
In the event of such a fault shutdown, the IC can be brought back to operation by resetting its fault register with the
appropriate SPI command (please refer also to the Section 3.9.2 “General Command Description” on page 20 later in this
document). As a result, transmission on non- faulty coils is still possible even if there is a failure of one coil.
Beyond this, the diagnosis of all connected coil lines is a very useful tool for maintenance reasons. The Atmel® ATA5279 has
implemented test structures that can be activated and read out via SPI commands, so that the microcontroller can be
programmed to detect most of the possible faults, for example, shorts between different coil connection lines and multiple
shorts in one pair of lines.

3.6.1
Functional Description of Diagnosis Mode
In this diagnosis mode, the coil-line drivers themselves are switched to high impedance. Hence, only the test structure at
every coil connection (both at the positive outputs AxP of the drivers and at the negative outputs AxN) is present and can
directly test the status of the line. Figure 3-4 illustrates this:

The structure above can be found in each of the six channels of the Atmel® ATA5279. As soon as the diagnosis mode is
engaged, all channels are operated in this way. On the channel that is actually selected, the setting of the switches can be
changed with the Set Coil Current command and the status of the two connection lines can be checked with the Get Driver
Setup command.
The two switches in the P line driver are controlled with one bit. That means, either the high-side (S_HxP) or the low-side
(S_LxP) switch is closed. The same is true for the N line driver (S_HxN, S_LxN). The controlling bits c0 and c1 are taken from
the coil current selection register (see Section 3.9.2 “General Command Description” on page 20 in this document).
Note that the setting of the switches is latched. That means, if the setting on the switches of the selected driver is changed,
the setting on the five other channels remains unchanged.
By a combination of test structures, many different faults, even between the coils, can be detected.
As described in the principle schematic of a driver stage above, a test structure consists of two switchable current sources
(one to VDS and one to GND) and a comparator that converts the voltage level on the line into a digital signal. An internal
comparator monitors the output level of the AxP and AxN stage referring to a threshold level of ½ VDS. The switches for the
current sources can only be controlled in diagnosis mode, with the corresponding coil being selected (see also Driver
Command description). Note that one switch is always closed, either the high-side or the low-side switch of one test
structure. These structures are independent, i.e., they can be set up for each line individually and at the same time.
The status of the connection lines of the selected coil can be read out with a SPI command.
Note:

To leave the Diagnosis Mode a “Reset Fault Status” command need to be sent at the end.

Taking the circuit situation shown above, the test run starts with both S_L1P and S_L2P switches closed (default state when
entering the diagnosis mode for the first time). The read-back of the line state result in both times 0, which is not unexpected.
However, the result does not change when either altering the channel 1 or the channel 2 switch setting. That can be caused
both by the failure shown above and by short-circuits of both lines to ground. The final diagnosis can be identified by
changing both channels to the high-side switches (S_H1P and S_H2P). In this case, the two status lines both return 1s –
which eliminates the possibility of two short-circuits to ground.

Steps 6, 10 and 14 are wait states, as the test structures need some time to stabilize in their new setting. This
depends mainly on the externally applied capacitors on the AxP and the AxN pins.
The suggested waiting time is calculated as follows:
V S × ( C e + C ant )
t diag,wait = ---------------------------------------300 µA
The sequence above is an example of how the failure illustrated in Figure 3-5 on page 11 could be detected. Depending on
the grade of detection detail that is required, a matrix for the test sequence should be set up to find the most effective way of
programming and testing. For more details on the commands, please refer also to Section 3.9.2 “General Command
Description” on page 20.
The second example circuit has two faults in the circuitry.

If channel four is activated in normal operation, a fault shutdown will occur. The reason for this shutdown (i.e., the entry in the
fault register) could either be an overload on the A4P line (here a short circuit to VS) or a short-circuit on the A4N line to VS.
In any case, the IC protects itself and the external components from damage; however, the fact that there is more than one
failure in the wiring cannot be discovered.
In diagnosis mode, by testing the A4P line with S_H4P and S_L4P, the short circuit to VS could be found first. The same
result would be found when testing the return line switch 4 accordingly, so the presence of more than one fault on coil 4 is
determined. The precise fault cannot be found though. The diagnosis result would be the same both for the above shown
circuit and for the A4N line being directly shorted to VS (without the failure in the coil module, here RShunt2) and for the
combination of the two.

Again, this is only an example of how the diagnosis system can be used. Generally, a more systematic approach is
suggested in order to efficiently test all connection lines used.
Note:
To exit the diagnosis mode correctly, two SPI commands have to be sent: the first is the Select Driver command with the DM bit set to 0 and the second is a Reset Fault Status command. See also SPI Command

SPI
The SPI is used to select the required coil and its current, to provide LF data to the IC, to select and start an LF transmission,
and to read out status information. It is equipped with a chip select input to enable or disable communication. When disabled,
the data output of the IC is in high impedance mode, so other devices may communicate on the same bus.
If the device is woken up from power-down mode (S_CS=1) a wait time of > 200µs has to be considered before sending a
SPI command. This time is needed to start up the internal supply voltage and settling the resonator frequency.
The interface is configured as a slave device, always requiring a master (e.g., a microcontroller) for operation. The maximum
input clock frequency is 1/4 of the system clock present at the OSCI pin, resulting, for example, in a maximum signal speed
of 2 Mbit/s when using a typical 8MHz input clock. The SPI features four different operation modes, which only differ in the
relationship between the clock signal (S_CLK) and the data I/Os.
Both the SPI itself and the corresponding I/O lines are supplied by the application-provided logic supply voltage connected to
the VIF pin. This ensures that the controller (master) and the IC (slave) operate with the same voltage levels.
In total, four modes of operations are possible, each differing in clock polarity and phase.

The configuration mode can be selected with the appropriate SPI command (see Section 3.9.2 “General Command
Description” on page 20). Note that after power-up or a reset, the IC is always in its default configuration (POL = 1, PHA = 1),
which must be used to alter the configuration. At the end of the SPI configuration-changing command, the new configuration
is activated with the falling edge of the S_CS signal.

3.8
Command Buffer
This buffer is a First-In-First-Out (FIFO)-type buffer, located between the SPI and the modulator stage. The microcontroller
can write coil-driving related commands and data with full SPI speed to keep the CPU and bus load low.
3.8.1
Structure
The buffer can store up to 128bits, organized in 16 words, each eight bit in size. Hence, each data word from the SPI that
contains a control command for the driver stages (i.e., select a certain driver, select a certain current, transmit LF-data bits
and transmit a constant wave) is stored in a buffer word. Figure 3-12 outlines this.

The read pointer indicates the next word to be processed by the Modulator Stage, whereas the write pointer indicates the
next free location for data from the SPI. These pointers are controlled by the internal logic to enable the first-in-first-out
functionality.
3.8.2
Usage
After wake-up from power down or failure shut down, the buffer is reset and ready to receive commands and LF data. Any LF
command and data is fed into the buffer via the SPI. The buffer can be filled even during an active data modulation, i.e.,
when some LF data and/or commands remain in the buffer while waiting to be processed. This increases the independency
of the coil driver from the microcontroller. An interrupt request (IRQ) is triggered when the fill state of the buffer drops below
6 data bytes or if too many words are sent and a FIFO overflow occurs.
Seamless data processing is an important feature of the command buffer. LF data intended for the same coil and the same
current step can be distributed to several commands without the risk of having unwanted gaps in the LF telegram. This
allows protocols to have any length and is usable both with the Send LF-data and the Send Carrier command. Refer also to
the Section 3.9.1 “Modulator Stage” on page 18 for further details.

3.9
Control Logic
The internal control logic handles all information coming from the SPI and controls the power stages. Diagnostic information
is also collected and evaluated here.
3.9.1
Modulator Stage
The modulator stage controls the coil drivers. It gets all necessary information from the command buffer. That is:
● Which coil to drive
●
●
●
●
Which current to maintain in this coil/which diagnosis switch to close (in diagnosis mode)
Which baud rate to use for LF data transmission
What kind of transmission (i.e., data or carrier)
LF data itself (respectively the on-time when a carrier is to be transmitted)
When a modulator operation is started by an SPI command, the data in the buffer is processed in the order it arrives via SPI,
command by command. The time for this data processing depends on the command itself and, if LF transmissions are
involved, the amount and length of the data bits.
Table 3-5 lists the timings for the driver-related commands.
Table 3-5.
Execution Durations of Driver-related Commands
Command
LF Period Counts Comment
Select Driver
64
During the first 32 periods, the actual driver is stopped in order to decay any
oscillation in the coil. Then the switching itself is performed and another 32
periods waiting time is started in order to wait for the new driver to reach its
operation point
Select Coil Curr.
4
The switching time of internal references takes less than 4LF periods. Note
that there will always be an interruption in a telegram if the coil current is
changed between two transmission commands
Send LF Data
N × 2 × {32 / 22}
The duration of this command depends on the selected data rate (3.9Kbit/s,
i.e. 32 periods/LF bit, or 5.7Kbit/s, i.e., 22 periods/LF bit) and the amount of
nibbles N (2LF data bits) to be transmitted
Send LF Carrier
T × (32 / 22)
The duration of this command depends on the selected data rate (see also
above) and the carrier duration T
Note:
Table 3-5 lists the duration of command execution for the different commands and not the decoding or processing time. This is done simultaneous, so that two commands can be executed seamlessly.
LF data is transmitted on-off-keyed (OOK). “1” enables the field, whereas “0” disables it. Note that the field generation
strongly depends on the bandwidth (the Q factor) of the coil. If it is too narrow, the receiver might not be able to decode the
data correctly. Figure 3-13 shows the signal path from the modulator stage to the receiver.

Coils with high Q values need more periods to reach the desired field strength and hence appropriate detection level
thresholds in the receiver. So the Q factor must be adapted in order to ensure proper data communication. For example, the
thresholds here are chosen at 70% of the required output current for a 0 to 1 and at 30% for a 1 to 0 detection.
The IC supports two data rates: standard, which is 3.9Kbit/s (or 32LF periods), and high speed, rated with 5.7Kbit/s (or 22LF
periods). Note that this refers to the encoded (net) data rate. The minimum length of an active field (e.g., the time for the first
1 in Figure 3-13), is 16LF periods in standard and 11LF periods in high speed mode (i.e., gross data rate).
Another aspect of the LF data transmission is that current regulation can only be done roughly, as the measurement must be
interrupted over and over again. At a 0 to 1 transition, the current measurement will not start until the 5th period, and there
will not be any measurement during a 0-transmission. The regulation precision that is achieved during carrier transmission is
not valid here.
As described in Section 3.8 “Command Buffer” on page 17, data is processed seamlessly to avoid gaps in longer LF
telegrams. The following example illustrates this feature.
Assume that following data words have been written into the command buffer via the SPI:
1. Send 2LF bits (SPI data 00h 05h)
2.
Send carrier with a length of 24 data bits (SPI data 98h)
In this example, the output signal of the modulator resembles the illustration below.
Figure 3-14. Example of Data Transmission of Two Consecutive Commands
First Command
Second Command
Modulator Data
BCNT Signal
2 x tdata
24 x tdata
26 x tdata
The value for tdata depends on the speed setting of the modulator (32LF periods in standard and 22 periods in high speed
mode, with one period being 8µs when operating with 125kHz output frequency and therefore 8MHz system clock).
The least amount of data that can be processed by the modulator stage is four LF bits or two (e.g. Manchester-encoded)
data bits. The first command in the upper example is a minimum-length LF data command.
To ensure the traceability of the LF protocol, two pins are provided, which indicate an active data transmission (MACT) and
the change of an LF bit (BCNT). Figure 3-13 illustrates the function of these two signals:

The MACT signal can be used to start a timer whereas BCNT can be used as input signal to a counter. Note that for carrier
transmissions, only the MACT signal is active. There are not any pulses on the BCNT line.

Get driver setup
Get fault info
Refer to Section 3.7 “SPI” on page 14 for bit direction definitions.
● Get Status Info:
This command delivers the general IC status information back to the microcontroller (via the SPI bus). One part of the
return word is the interrupt request source. If such a request is active (i.e., the IRQ line is high), the source for it is
coded here.
●
Possible sources include the diagnosis block to indicate a driver stage fault (bit F), a general reset (either triggered
externally by the NRES pin or internally by the power-on reset structure, bit R), an overtemperature of the chip (bit T),
or the FIFO buffer indicating that the fill state has dropped to 6 data bytes or below (bit BU), or the fill state exceeds
the upper limit of 16 bytes (bit BO). The IRQ signal is reset with this command. Additionally, the operability flag of the
IC (bit Op) is returned in the word. Note that only if no fault is stored in the fault register and all operation voltages are
present and valid, the operability is given (indicated by a 1 in the Op bit). Otherwise, Atmel® ATA5279 will not process
any driver-related command. Finally, the LF speed mode bit returned here indicates the current speed state of the
modulator stage (bit S, 0 for normal speed, 1 for high speed).
bit R:
Chip reset - either triggered externally by the NRES pin or internally by the
power on reset structure
bit F:
Indicator for a driver stage fault
bit BO: The FIFO buffer fill state exceeds the upper limit of 16 bytes
bit BU: The FIFO buffer fill state drops to 6 data bytes or below
bit T:
Chip overtemperature indicator
bit S:
LF modulator speed mode indicator
bit Op LF driver stage operability indicator
The IRQ flag is set if one or more of the listed status bits are set. From these the S-bit and Op-bit are excluded. The
IRQ flag can be reset by sending “Get Status Info” command.
●
20
Get Driver Setup:
This command returns the actual setup of the driver stage, i.e., the selected coil, encoded in the bits DG,D1..0, and the
selected current, which can be found in the bits C4..0 (see also “Select Driver” and “Set Coil Current” command
description below for details on bit coding). This command is also used in diagnosis mode to fetch the state of the coil
connection lines.
ATA5279/ATA5279C [DATASHEET]
9125P–RKE–05/14
●
Get Fault Info:
This command returns the content of the driver stage fault register back to the microcontroller via the SPI bus. The
register contains both the code for the detected fault and the number of the driver stage that was active when the fault
occurred. Refer also to the Section 3.9.4 “Status Monitor” on page 24 for further details.
●
Reset Fault Status:
This command clears the content of the driver stage fault register and sets the operability bit in the general state
register if all supply voltages are present and valid. This command is necessary to resume normal operation following
the occurrence and subsequent removal of a fault. Please note that prior to this command, the active channel should
be switched to a line that is not faulty. Otherwise, the internal logic might get corrupted and must then be reset with a
negative pulse on the NRES line.
Note that this command is also required to bring the Atmel ATA5279 back into operation mode once the diagnosis
mode was active and was then cleared by a Select Driver command.
●
Set SPI Config:
This command changes the two configuration bits PO(L) and PH(A). These bits are responsible for the serial data
processing of the SPI.
Default: PO = 1, PH = 1
●
Halt Operation:
As this command is processed immediately, it is not written to the FIFO buffer even if it is a driver-related command.
The effect of this command is that the content of the FIFO buffer is cleared, hence no new LF data is available, and if
any driver is active it will be stopped. Note that such stops are only carried out at the end of an LF period (i.e., when
the sinusoidal output signal reaches half of the supply voltage).

Select Driver:
This command selects the coil that is to be driven or tested next. The BR-bit indicates the modulation speed (0 for
3.9Kbit/s, i.e., 32LF periods and 1 for 5.7Kbit/s, i.e., 22LF periods).
●
The DG,1..0 bits indicate the channel number to be activated. DG selects the driver group (0 for high-current driver 1..3,
1 for low-current driver 4..6) and D1..0 the required driver in the group (01 for driver 1 / 4, 11 for driver 3 / 6). For
connection line diagnosis, the diagnosis mode can be enabled by setting the DM-bit to 1.

If set, all coil connections are switched to this mode. Normal operation is not possible. (i.e., LF transmission).

●
Send LF Data:
This command must be used to start an LF data telegram on the selected coil. The bits N3..0 contain the amount of
nibbles to be transferred into the LF data buffer of the Atmel® ATA5279. This amount has to be coded as follows:
N3..0 = (nNibbles – 1)
Hence, a maximum of 16 nibbles or eight words and a minimum of one nibble can be written into the buffer using one
command.
Note also that this command uses one more word of space in the buffer, as the header word is also stored. So for
example, if the LF telegram consists of four words, the required space in the LF data buffer is five words (four words
of pure data and one word for the command header).
It is important that the amount of nibbles passed in the header word matches the number of words transferred
afterwards to the IC, as no data consistency checking can be carried out here. If an odd number of nibbles is to be
transferred, the data word on the SPI has to be completed with dummy data in the upper nibble, as the SPI always
requires complete data words on the bus. The FIFO buffer is also only filled with complete words.
For an example, if seven nibbles of LF data (i.e., 14 LF Manchester data bits) are to be sent by the Atmel ATA5279 via
the LF channel, the Send LF Data command consists of five words, the header word (here 06h) and four LF data
words, whereas the last word contains only four bits (the four least significant) of the LF data.
For an additional example, see Figure 3-16, which illustrates how LF transmission data is processed in ATA5279.

Send LF Carrier:
This command should be used when a carrier shall be transmitted on the LF channel via the selected coil. The current
will be regulated by ATA5279 to the value selected with the last Select Coil Current command (resp. the default value
of 50mA). See also Section 3.5 “Coil Current Sensing (Zero Cross, Sample and Hold, Integrator)” on page 9 for
further details.
The duration of this carrier can be defined by the T4..0 bits. Note that the time unit here is one LF data bit, i.e., 32LF
periods in normal- and 22LF periods in high-speed mode. That leads to a maximum definable carrier time per
command of 31 × 0.256ms = 7.936ms when using an 8MHz system clock.
However, when the T4..0-value is set to 0, an endless carrier transmission with the actually selected current on the
actually active coil is started. This can be used for long-term measurements or for energy-coupling purposes. Be
aware that long-term transmissions can produce a huge amount of heat in the driver, dependant on the selected coil
current and the properties of the coil itself. It is therefore strongly recommended to use this feature only with a
maximum current settings of 100mA; otherwise, the chip temperature might reach excessive values.

3.9.4
Status Monitor
The status monitor holds all information from the diagnosis stage. In case of an existing fault, all power stages are disabled.
As soon as a fault is stored, an interrupt request (IRQ) to the microcontroller is generated. This signal is persistent until the
status info is polled by the microcontroller. The entry in the fault register can only be cleared by the Reset Fault command or
a global reset.
There are two different status registers:
● A general IC status register (requestable by the Get Status Info command)
●
A coil-driver related fault register (requestable by the Get Fault Info command)
The fault register is encoded as follows:

● DG, D1..0: The driver group and number that was active when the fault occurred. Only a selected driver can be affected
by external faults. Therefore, it is sufficient to store the type of failure and the corresponding driver number. Refer to
Section 3.9.3 “Driver-related Command Description” on page 22 for further details on the coding of these bits.
●
T: A temperature shutdown has occurred. Note that there is not necessarily a link between the driver number and this
fault, as all sensor signals of the chip are OR’ed together. However, in general, it can be assumed that the last active
driver also caused the overtemperature condition.
●
F03: This bit indicates a missing return line signal during modulation. That means that the current detection unit was
not able to find a sinusoidal signal on the VSHS pin although the LF coil was driven. The reason for this can either be
an open load condition or a short-circuit on the AxN pin towards ground.
●
F02: This bit indicates an excessive positive voltage on the VSHS pin. In normal applications, this is only the case if
there is a high current flowing through the shunt resistor. The typical reason for this is a short-circuit on the AxN line
towards battery. Another possible reason could be a shorted LF coil.
●
F01: This bit indicates an excessive current through the high-side transistor that drives the AxP line. The most typical
reason for this is a short-circuit towards ground.
●
F00: This bit indicates an excessive current through the low-side transistor that drives the AxP line. The most typical
reason for this is a short-circuit towards battery.
Note:
24
To make sure a repeated detection of an existing fault, the related channel need to be changed before a “Reset
Fault Status” command is executed.

Oscillator
This block provides the clock signals internally needed for control logic, the LF driver stage, and the boost converter. The
oscillator requires an external clock source, which can either be an active signal from a microcontroller for example, or a
passive oscillation device like a crystal or a ceramic resonator. As the LF carrier frequency is directly derived from this clock,
the (resonance) frequency of the clock source must be chosen to match the desired LF frequency. Possible values range
from 6.4MHz to 9.6MHz, where 8MHz is the typical value resulting in an LF frequency of 125kHz.
Note that during start-up (i.e., as long as no stable oscillation can be detected), the driving current for the crystal is increased
to shorten the start-up delay. Furthermore, the IC is only functional if the oscillator is working properly. That means, during
start-up after a power-down phase, no communication and no operation of the IC is possible until the oscillator reaches its
operation point.
If an external clock source such as a microcontroller is to be used, the logic-level clock signal must be applied at the OSCI
pin, and the OSCO pin must be left open. Note that the chip protection features, need a clock signal present at the OSCI pin;
without this, the chip is not fully protected. Therefore, if the chip is in any mode but in power-down (reset), a clock signal is
needed.
The oscillator block is, like the control logic and the SPI, supplied by the application-provided logic supply voltage connected
to the pin VIF.
3.11
Internal Supply
The internal power supply stage provides all internally needed BIAS currents and reference voltages. An integrated onetime-programming (OTP) structure is used to adjust internal settings. This ensures parameter stability over the production
process.
The internal supply block performs monitoring functions to reset or shut down the IC in case of supply shortages or during
power-up. A power-management minimizes current consumption during power-down mode of the IC.
Another part of this block is the internal 5V voltage regulator. It is supplied by the VS pin, i.e., the battery supply connection.
This voltage is used for all internal analog functions and driving processes. It is active as long as the IC is not in power-down
mode. To increase stability and quality of this supply line, it is externally available (pin VCC) for connection to a ceramic
capacitor for filtering and buffering. Note that no loads must be connected to this pin.
As with the oscillator, this supply voltage must settle in its operation point prior to any operation. The control logic checks the
status of this voltage and inhibits operation until it reaches the required level. Furthermore, the driver supply voltage present
on the VDSx pins is also monitored. If the level falls below VVDS,min, the operability flag of the chip is cleared (bit Op in the
Status Register) and driver-related commands cannot be processed. Once the voltage level is valid again, the Op bit is set
again, and operability is restored.
