Functional Description 3.1 3.1.1 Power Supply Unit with Supervisor Functions Power Supply The IC has to be supplied by a reverse-protected battery voltage. To prevent damage to the IC, proper external protection circuitry has to be added. It is recommended to use at least one capacitor combination of storage and RF capacitors behind the reverse protection circuitry, which is connected close to the VBAT and GND pins of the IC. A fully integrated low-power and low-drop regulator (VINT regulator), stabilized by an external blocking capacitor, provides the necessary low-voltage supply needed for the wake-up process. A trimmed low-power band gap is used as reference for the VINT regulator as well as for the VCC regulator. All internal blocks are supplied by VINT regulator. VINT regulator must not be used for any external supply purposes. Nothing inside the IC except the logic interface to the external microcontroller is supplied by the 5V/3.3V VCC regulator. Both voltage regulators are checked by a “power-good comparator”, which keeps the whole chip in reset as long as the internal supply voltage (VINT regulator output) is too low and generates a reset for the external microcontroller if the output voltage of the VCC regulator is not sufficient. 3.1.2 VBatt Switch This high-voltage switch provides the battery voltage at pin VBATSW for various purposes. It is switched ON after power on reset when the IC transits to Active Mode and it will only turn OFF when the IC changes to Sleep Mode. Watchdog resets do not have an effect on the switch. The switch can be used for measuring purposes as well as to switch on external voltage regulators. 3.1.3 Voltage Supervisor This function is implemented to protect the IC and the external power MOS transistors from damage due to overvoltage on PBAT input. In the event of overvoltage (VTHOV) or undervoltage (VTHUV), the external NMOS motor driver transistors will be switched off. The failure state will be flagged on DG2 pin. It is recommended to block PBAT with an external RF capacitor to suppress high frequency disturbances. 3.1.4 Temperature Supervisor An integrated temperature sensor prevents the IC from overheating. If the temperature is above the overtemperature pre-warning threshold TJPW set, the diagnostic pin DG3 will be switched to HIGH to signal this event to the external microcontroller. The microcontroller should take actions to reduce the power dissipation in the IC. If the temperature rises above the overtemperature shutdown threshold TJ switch off, the VCC regulator and all output drivers together with the LIN transceiver will be switched OFF immediately and the /RESET signal will go LOW. Both thresholds have a built-in hysteresis to avoid oscillations. The IC will return to normal operation (Active Mode) when it has cooled down below the shutdown threshold. When the junction temperature drops below the pre-warning threshold, bit DG3 will be switched LOW. 5 9122B–AUTO–10/08 3.2 Active Mode and Sleep Mode The IC has two modes: Sleep Mode and Active Mode. Switching between the modes is described below. By default the IC starts in Active Mode (which means normal operation) after power-on. A Go to Sleep procedure switches the IC from Active Mode to Sleep Mode (standby). A Go to Active procedure brings the IC back from Sleep Mode to Active Mode. When in Sleep Mode the internal 5V supply (VINT regulator), the EN2 pin input structure, and a certain part of the LIN receiver remain active to ensure a proper startup of the system. The VCC regulator is turned off. The Go to Sleep and Go to Active procedures are implemented as follows: Go to Sleep: Pin EN1 is a low-voltage input supplied by the VCC regulator. It is ESD protected by diodes against VCC and GND. Thus the input voltage at pin EN1 must not go below GND or exceed the output voltage of the VCC regulator. A transition from HIGH to LOW followed by a permanent LOW signal for a minimum time period tgotosleep (typical 10 µs) at pin EN1 switches the IC to Sleep Mode as the EN1 is edge triggered. VCC is switched off in Sleep Mode. It is recommended to keep EN1 LOW during normal operation. Go to Active Using Pin EN2: Pin EN2 is a high-voltage input for external wake-up signals. Its input structure consists of a comparator with a built-in hysteresis. It is ESD-protected by diodes against GND and VBAT, B, and for this reason the applied input voltage must not go below GND or exceed VBAT. Pulling EN2 up to VBAT switches the IC to Active Mode. EN2 is debounced and edge triggered. Go to Active Using the LIN Interface: Using the LIN interface provides a second possibility to wake-up the IC (see Figure 3-1). A falling edge at pin LIN followed by a dominant bus level maintained for a minimum time period (Tbus) and ending with a rising edge leads to a remote wake-up request. The device switches from Sleep Mode to Active Mode. The VCC regulator is activated and the internal LIN slave termination resistor is switched on. Figure 3-1. Wake-up Using the LIN Interface Active Mode Sleep Mode Active Mode EN1 Tdebounce VCC LIN Tgotosleep = 10 µs 6 Tbus = 90 µs Regulator Wake-up Time = 4 × TOSC ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] 9122B–AUTO–10/08 ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] 3.3 5V/3.3V VCC Regulator The 5V/3.3V regulator is fully integrated. It requires an external electrolytic capacitor in the range of 2.2 µF up to 10 µF and with an ESR in the range from 2Ω to 15Ω for stability (see Figure 3-2). The output voltage can be configured as either 5V or 3.3V by connecting pin VMODE to either pin VINT or GND. Since the regulator is not designed to be switched between both output voltages during operation, it is advisable to hard-wire VMODE pin. The logic levels of the microcontroller interface are adapted to the VCC regulator output voltage. The maximum output current (IOS1) of the regulator is 100 mA. For TJ > 150°C the IOS1 of ATA6834 is reduced to 80 mA. The VCC regulator has a built-in short circuit protection. A comparator checks the output voltage of the VCC regulator and keeps the external microcontroller in reset as long as the voltage is below the lower operation minimum (shown in Figure 3-33). Figure 3-2.

Its period time TOSC is determined by the external resistor RWD. A HIGH signal on WDD pin enables the watchdog function; a LOW signal disables it. Since WDD pin is equipped with an internal pull-up resistor the watchdog is enabled by default. In order to keep the current consumption as low as possible the watchdog is switched off during Sleep Mode. The timing diagram in Figure 3-4 shows the watchdog and external reset timing. Figure 3-4. Timing Diagram of the Watchdog in Conjunction with the /RESET Signal VCC 88% VCC Watchdog trigger edge /RESET Watchdog trigger in t2 window tresshort WD t1 tres td tres t2 t1 t2 td Reset and lead Reset and lead time, Watchdog cycle, time, no trigger trigger during lead time no trigger t1 Watchdog cycle, trigger during t2 window After power-up of the VCC regulator (VCC output exceeds 88% of its nominal value) /RESET output stays LOW for the timeout period tres (typical 10 ms). Subsequently /RESET output switches to HIGH. During the following time td (typical 500 ms) a rising edge at the input WD is expected otherwise another external reset will be triggered. When the watchdog has been correctly triggered for the first time, normal watch-dog operation begins. A normal watchdog cycle consists of two time sections t1 and t2 followed by a short pulse for the time tresshort at /RESET if no valid trigger has been applied at pin WD during t2. Rising edges on WD pin during t1 also cause a short pulse on /RESET. Start for such a cycle is always the time of the last rising edge either on WD pin or on /RESET pin. If the watchdog is disabled (WDD = LOW), only the initial reset for the time tres after power-up will be generated. Additional resets will be generated if the VCC output voltage drops below 80% of its nominal value. The following example demonstrates how to calculate the timing scheme for valid watchdog trigger pulses, which the external microcontroller has to provide in order to prevent undesired resets. 8 ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] 9122B–AUTO–10/08 ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] Example: Using an external resistor RWD = 33 kΩ ±1% results in typical parameters as follows: TOSC = 12.32 µs t1 = 980 × TOSC = 12.07 ms ±10% t2 = 780 × TOSC = 9.609 ms ±10% t1 + t2 = 21.68 ms ±10% Hence, the minimum time the external microcontroller has to wait before pin WD can be triggered is in worst case tmin = 1.1 × t1 = 13.28 ms. The maximum time for the watchdog trigger on WD pin is t max = 0.9 × (t1 + t2) = 19.51 ms. Thus watchdog trigger input must remain within tmax – tmin = 6.23 ms. Other values can be set up by picking a different resistor value for RWD. The dependency of TOSC on the value of RWD is shown in Figure 3-5. Figure 3-5. TOSC versus RWD 45 40 TOSC (µs) TOSC (µs) 35 30 TOSCmax (µs) 25 20 15 TOSCmin (µs) 10 5 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 10 0 RWD (kΩ) 3.5 Charge Pump A charge pump has been implemented in order to provide sufficient voltage to operate the external high-side power-NMOS transistors and the VG regulator, which drives the low-side Power-NMOS transistors. The charge pump output voltage at CPOUT pin is controlled to settle typically about 15V above the voltage at pin PBAT. A built-in supervisor circuit checks if the output voltage is sufficient to operate the VG regulator and external Power-NMOS transistors. The output voltage is accepted as good when it rises above VCPCPGOOD. A charge pump failure is flagged at DG2 if this minimum can not be reached or if the output voltage drops below the lower threshold of VCPCPGOOD due to overloading. The two shuffle capacitors should have the same value. The value of the reservoir capacitor should be at least twice the value of one shuffle capacitor. Two external shuffle capacitors and an external reservoir capacitor have to be provided. The typical values for the two shuffle capacitor is 100F, and for the reservoir capacitor is 470 nF. All capacitors should be ceramic. It is advisable to pick a reservoir capacitor with twice or three-times the size of the two equally-sized shuffle capacitors. The greater the capacitors, the greater the output current capability. 9 9122B–AUTO–10/08 3.6 VG Regulator The VG regulator provides a stable voltage to supply the low-side gate drivers and to deliver sufficient voltage for the external low-side Power-NMOS transistors. Typically the output voltage is 12V. In order to guarantee reliable operation even with a low battery voltage, the VG regulator is supplied by the charge pump output. For stability, an external ceramic capacitor of typically 470 nF has to be provided. There is no internal supervision of the VG output voltage. 3.7 Output Drivers and Control Inputs IL1-IL3, IH1-IH3 This IC offers six push-pull output drivers for the external low-side and high-side power-NMOS transistors. To guarantee reliable operation, the low-side drivers are supplied by the VG regulator while the high-side drivers are supplied directly by the charge pump. All drivers are designed to operate at switching frequencies in the range of DC up to 50 kHz. The maximum gate charge that can be delivered to each external Power-NMOS transistor at 50 kHz is 100 nC. The output drivers are directly controlled by the digital input pins IL1 to IL3 and IH1 to IH3 (see Table 3-1). All pins are equipped with an internal pull-down resistor. To operate the output drivers properly the following requirements have to be fulfilled: 1. Device is in Active Mode. 2. In case of watchdog is enabled, at least one valid watchdog trigger has been accepted. 3. The voltage at pin PBAT lies within its operation range. Neither undervoltage nor overvoltage is present. 4. The charge pump output voltage has been accepted as good, thus it exceeded VCPCPGOOD. 5. No overtemperature shutdown has occurred. If a short circuit is detected by one of the sense inputs S1 to S3, the output drivers will be switched off after a debounce time of 6 µs and the output DG1 will be flagged (see also Section 3.8 “Short Circuit Detection” on page 11). The output drivers will be enabled again and DG1 will be cleared with a rising edge at one of the control inputs (IL1 to IL3, IH1 to IH3). Additional logic prevents short circuits due to switching on one power-NMOS transistor while the opposite one in the same branch is switched on already. Table 3-1. 10 Status of the Output Drivers Depending on the Control Inputs Mode Control Inputs IL[1..3] Control Inputs IH[1..3] Driver Stage for External Power MOS L[1..3], H[1..3] Comments Sleep X X OFF Sleep Mode Active 0 0 OFF Active 1 0 L[1..3] ON, H[1..3] OFF Active 0 1 H[1..3] ON, L[1..3] OFF Active 1 1 OFF Shoot-through protection ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] 9122B–AUTO–10/08 ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] 3.8 Short Circuit Detection Short circuits in the motor bridge circuitry are sensed by S1 to S3 inputs. Internal comparators monitor the voltage differences between the drain and the source terminals of the external power-NMOS transistors. If one transistor switches on and the voltage drop from its drain to source stays higher than the threshold VSC (typical 4V) for a longer time than tSC (typically 6 µs), a short circuit in this branch is detected. In this case, all output drivers are switched off immediately and DG1 pin will be set to HIGH. With a rising edge at any of the pins IL1 to IL3 or IH1 to IH3, the diagnostic output DG1will be reset and the drivers can be switched on again. 3.9 Cross Conduction Timer In order to prevent damage of the motor bridge due to peak currents a non-overlapping phase for switching the power-NMOS transistors is mandatory. Therefore, a cross conduction timer has been implemented to prevent switching on any output driver for a time tCC after any other driver has been switched off. This also accounts for toggling any other driver after a short circuit was detected. An external RC parallel combination defines the value for tCC and can be estimated as follows: tCC = KCC × RCC [kΩ] × CCC [nF], KCC is specified in Section 8. “Electrical Characteristics” on page 15. The RC combination is connected between CC and GND pins. When one of the drivers has been switched off the RC combination is charged to 5V (VINT) and discharged with its time constant. Any low to high transition at the control inputs will be masked out at the driver outputs until the voltage at CC pin drops below 67% of its initial value (VINT). The timer will be re-triggered at any time by any falling edge at the control inputs. This is shown in the following figure. Figure 3-6. Timing Scheme of the Cross Conduction Timer IL1 L1 IH1 H1 IL3 L3 VCC = VVINT CC VCC = 67% VVINT tcc tcc tcc At least 5 kΩ minimum and 5 nF at maximum should be used as values for the RC combination. 10 kΩ is recommended. If the non-overlapping phase is controlled by the external microcontroller, it is possible to do without the external capacitor. The minimum time tCC is defined by the parasitic capacitance at CC pin. 11 9122B–AUTO–10/08 3.10 Diagnostic Outputs D1 - D3 As mentioned in the sections above, the diagnostic outputs DG1 to DG3 are used to signal failures. This is summarized in the following table. Table 3-2.

LOW indicates wake-up by LIN, HIGH indicates wake-up by EN2. DG1 output will be cleared by the first valid watchdog trigger after wake-up or by the first rising edge at one of the control inputs (IL1 to IL3 and IH1 toIH3) if the watchdog is disabled. Table 3-3. Indicating Wake-up Source Diagnostic Outputs 3.11 DG1 DG2 DG3 Wake-up Source 1 – – EN2 0 – – LIN LIN Transceiver ATA6833 and ATA6834 include a fully integrated LIN transceiver complying with LIN specification 2.1 and SAEJ2602 2. The transceiver consists of a low-side driver with slew rate control, wave shaping, current limiting, and a high voltage comparator followed by a debouncing unit in the receiver. During transmission, the data applied at pin TXD will be transferred to the bus driver to generate a bus signal on LIN pin. TXD input has an internal pull-up resistor. To minimize the electromagnetic emission of the bus line, the bus driver has a built-in slew rate control and wave-shaping unit. The transmission will be aborted by a thermal shutdown or by a transition to Sleep Mode. 12 ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] 9122B–AUTO–10/08 ATA6833/ATA6834 [Preliminary] Figure 3-7.

This diode protects against reverse currents on the bus line in case of a voltage difference between the bus line and VSUP (VBUS > VSUP). No additional termination resistor is necessary to use the IC as a LIN slave. If this IC is used as a LIN master, the LIN pin is terminated by an external 1 kΩ resistor in series with a diode to VBAT. As PWM communication directly over the LIN transceiver in both directions is possible, there is no TXD timeout feature implemented in the LIN transceiver. 13 9122B–AUTO–10/08 4.
