MULTIPLE SWITCH
DETECTION INTERFACE
The 33972 Multiple Switch Detection Interface with suppressed
wake-Up is designed to detect the closing and opening of up to 22
switch contacts. The switch status, either open or closed, is transferred
to the microprocessor unit (MCU) through a serial peripheral interface
(SPI). The device also features a 22-to-1 analog multiplexer for reading
inputs as analog. The analog input signal is buffered and provided on
the AMUX output pin for the MCU to read.
The 33972 device has two modes of operation, Normal and Sleep.
Normal Mode allows programming of the device and supplies switch
contacts with pull-up or pull-down current as it monitors switch change
of state. The Sleep Mode provides low quiescent current, which makes
the 33972 ideal for automotive and industrial products requiring low
sleep-state currents.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
The 33972 device is an integrated circuit designed to
provide systems with ultra-low quiescent sleep / wake-up
modes, and a robust interface between switch contacts and
a microprocessor. The 33972 replaces many of the discrete
components required when interfacing to microprocessorbased systems, while providing switch ground offset
protection, contact wetting current, and system wake-up.
The 33972 features 8-programmable switch-to-ground or
switch-to-battery inputs and 14 switch-to-ground inputs. All
switch inputs may be read as analog inputs through the
analog multiplexer (AMUX). Other features include a
programmable wake-up timer, programmable interrupt timer,
programmable wake-up /interrupt bits, and programmable
wetting current settings.
This device is designed primarily for automotive
applications, but may be used in a variety of other
applications such as computer, telecommunications, and
industrial controls.
FUNCTIONAL PIN DESCRIPTION
CHIP SELECT (CS)
The system MCU selects the 33972 to receive
communication using the chip select (CS) pin. With the CS in
a logic LOW state, command words may be sent to the 33972
via the serial input (SI) pin, and switch status information can
be received by the MCU via the serial output (SO) pin. The
falling edge of CS enables the SO output, latches the state of
the INT pin, and the state of the external switch inputs.
Rising edge of the CS initiates the following operation:
1. Disables the SO driver (high-impedance)
2. INT pin is reset to logic [1], except when additional
switch changes occur during CS LOW. (See Figure 6
on page 9.)
3. Activates the received command word, allowing the
33972 to act upon new data from switch inputs.
To avoid any spurious data, it is essential the HIGH-toLOW and LOW-to-HIGH transitions of the CS signal occur
only when SCLK is in a logic LOW state. A clean CS is
needed to ensure no incomplete SPI words are sent to the
device. Internal to the 33972 device is an active pull-up to
VDD on CS.
In Sleep Mode, the negative edge of CS (VDD applied) will
wake up the 33972 device. Data received from the device
during CS wake-up may not be accurate.
SYSTEM CLOCK (SCLK)
The system clock (SCLK) pin clocks the internal shift
register of the 33972. The SI data is latched into the input
shift register on the falling edge of SCLK signal. The SO pin
shifts the switch status bits out on the rising edge of SCLK.
The SO data is available for the MCU to read on the falling
edge of SCLK. False clocking of the shift register must be
avoided to ensure validity of data. It is essential the SCLK pin
be in a logic LOW state whenever CS makes any transition.
For this reason, it is recommended, though not necessary,
that the SCLK pin is commanded to a logic LOW state as long
as the device is not accessed and CS is in a logic HIGH state.
When the CS is in a logic HIGH state, any signal on the SCLK
and SI pins will be ignored and the SO pin is tri-state.
SPI SLAVE IN (SI)
The SI pin is used for serial instruction data input. SI
information is latched into the input register on the falling
edge of SCLK. A logic HIGH state present on SI will program
a one in the command word on the rising edge of the CS
signal. To program a complete word, 24 bits of information
must be entered into the device.
SPI SLAVE OUT (SO)
The SO pin is the output from the shift register. The SO pin
remains tri-stated until the CS pin transitions to a logic LOW
state. All open switches are reported as zero, all closed
switches are reported as one. The negative transition of CS
enables the SO driver.
The first positive transition of SCLK will make the status
data bit 24 available on the SO pin. Each successive positive
clock will make the next status data bit available for the MCU
to read on the falling edge of SCLK. The SI / SO shifting of the
data follows a first-in, first-out protocol, with both input and
output words transferring the most significant bit (MSB) first.
iNTERRUPT (INT)
The INT pin is an interrupt output from the 33972 device.
The INT pin is an open-drain output with an internal pull-up to
VDD. In Normal Mode, a switch state change will trigger the
INT pin (when enabled). The INT pin and INT bit in the SPI
register are latched on the falling edge of CS. This permits
the MCU to determine the origin of the interrupt. When two
33972 devices are used, only the device initiating the
interrupt will have the INT bit set. The INT pin is cleared on
the rising edge of CS. The INT pin will not clear with rising
edge of CS if a switch contact change has occurred while CS
was LOW.
In a multiple 33972 device system with WAKE HIGH and
VDD on (Sleep Mode), the falling edge of INT will place all
33972s in Normal Mode.

WAKE-UP (WAKE)
PROGRAMMABLE SWITCHES (SP0 : SP7)
The WAKE pin is an open-drain output and a wake-up
input. The pin is designed to control a power supply Enable
pin. In the Normal Mode, the WAKE pin is LOW. In the Sleep
Mode, the WAKE pin is HIGH. The WAKE pin has a pull-up to
the internal + 5.0V supply.
In Sleep Mode with the WAKE pin HIGH, the falling edge
of WAKE will place the 33972 in Normal Mode. In Sleep Mode
with VDD applied, the INT pin must be HIGH for negative edge
of WAKE to wake up the device. If VDD is not applied to the
device in Sleep Mode, INT does not affect WAKE operation.
The 33972 device has 8 switch inputs capable of being
programmed to read switch-to-ground or switch-to-battery
contacts. The input is compared with a 4.0V reference. When
programmed to be switch-to-battery, voltages greater than
4.0V are considered closed. Voltages less than 4.0V are
considered open. The opposite holds true when inputs are
programmed as switch-to-ground. Programming features are
defined in Table 6 through Table 11 in the functional Device
Operation section of this datasheet beginning on page 13.
Voltages greater than the VPWR supply voltage will source
current through the SP inputs to the VPWR pin. Transient
battery voltages greater than 38/40V must be clamped by an
external device.
BATTERY INPUT (VPWR)
The VPWR pin is battery input and Power-ON Reset to the
33972 IC. The VPWR pin requires external reverse battery
and transient protection. Maximum input voltage on VPWR is
50V. All wetting, sustain, and internal logic current is provided
from the VPWR pin.
VOLTAGE DRAIN SUPPLY (VDD)
The VDD input pin is used to determine logic levels on the
microprocessor interface (SPI) pins. Current from VDD is
used to drive SO output and the pull-up current for CS and
INT pins. VDD must be applied for wake-up from negative
edge of CS or INT.
SWITCH-TO-GROUND INPUTS (SG0 : SG13)
The SGn pins are switch-to-ground inputs only. The input
is compared with a 4.0V reference. Voltages greater than
4.0V are considered open. Voltages less than 4.0V are
considered closed. Programming features are defined in
Table 6 through Table 11 in the functional Device Operation
section of this datasheet beginning on page 13. Voltages
greater than the VPWR supply voltage will source current
through the SG inputs to the VPWR pin. Transient battery
voltages greater than 40V must be clamped by an external
device.
GROUND (GND)
The GND pin provides ground for the IC as well as ground
for inputs programmed as switch-to-battery inputs.

CONTROL AND PROTECTION CIRCUITRY:
SWITCH PROGRAMMABLE INPUTS:
The 33972 is designed to operate from 5.5V to 38/40V on
the VPWR terminal. Characteristics are provided from 8.0V to
28V for the device. Switch contact currents and the internal
logic supply are generated from the VPWR terminal. The
VDD supply terminal is used to set the SPI communication
voltage levels, current source for the SO driver, and pull-up
current on INT and CS.
The on-chip voltage regulator and bandgap supplies the
required voltages to the internal monitor circuitry. The
temperature monitor is active in the Normal Mode.
Programmable switch detection inputs. These 8 inputs can
selectively detect switch closures to Ground or Battery. The
33972 device has 8 switch inputs capable of being
programmed to read switch-to-ground or switch-to-battery
contacts. The input is compared with a 4.0V reference. When
programmed to be switch-to-battery, voltages greater than
4.0V are considered closed. Voltages less than 4.0V are
considered open. The opposite holds true when inputs are
programmed as switch-to-ground.
SWITCH–TO-GROUND INPUTS:
INTERFACE AND CONTROL:
The 33972 Multiple Switch Detection Interface with
Suppressed Wake-up is designed to detect the closing and
opening of up to 22 switch contacts. The switch status, either
open or closed, is transferred to the microprocessor unit
(MCU) through a serial peripheral interface (SPI).
The device also features a 22-to-1 analog multiplexer for
reading inputs as analog. The 33972 device has two modes
of operation, Normal and Sleep.
Switch detection interface inputs. These 14 inputs can
detect switch closures to ground only. The input is compared
with a 4.0V reference. Voltages greater than 4.0V are
considered open. Voltages less than 4.0V are considered
closed. Note: Each of these inputs may be used to supply
current to sensors external to a module.

MCU INTERFACE DESCRIPTION
The 33972 device directly interfaces to a 3.3V or 5.0V
microcontroller unit (MCU). SPI serial clock frequencies up to
6.0MHz may be used for programming and reading switch
input status (production tested at 4.16MHz). Figure 8
illustrates the configuration between an MCU and one 33972.
Serial peripheral interface (SPI) data is sent to the 33972
device through the SI input pin. As data is being clocked into
the SI pin, status information is being clocked out of the
device by the SO output pin. The response to a SPI
command will always return the switch status, interrupt flag,
and thermal flag. Input switch states are latched into the SO
register on the falling edge of the chip select (CS) pin.
Twenty-four bits are required to complete a transfer of
information between the 33972 and the MCU.

FUNCTIONAL DEVICE OPERATION
OPERATIONAL MODES
POWER SUPPLY
• Falling edge of WAKE
• Falling edge of INT (with VDD = 5.0V and WAKE at
Logic [1])
• Falling edge of CS (with VDD = 5.0V)
• Interrupt timer expires
Only in Normal Mode with VDD applied can the registers of
the 33972 be programmed through the SPI.
The 33972 is designed to operate from 5.5V to 40V on the
VPWR pin. Characteristics are provided from 8.0V to 16V for
the device. Switch contact currents and the internal logic
supply are generated from the VPWR pin. The VDD supply
pin is used to set the SPI communication voltage levels,
current source for the SO driver, and pull-up current on INT
and CS.
The VDD supply may be removed from the device to
reduce quiescent current. If VDD is removed while the device
is in Normal Mode, the device will remain in Normal Mode. If
VDD is removed in Sleep Mode, the device will remain in
Sleep Mode until a wake-up input is received (WAKE HIGH to
LOW, switch input or interrupt timer expires).
Removing VDD from the device disables SPI
communication and will not allow the device to wake up from
INT and CS pins.
The registers that may be programmed in Normal Mode
are listed below. Further explanation of each register is
provided in subsequent paragraphs.
•Programmable Switch Register (Settings Command )
•Wake-Up / Interrupt Register (Wake-Up / Interrupt
Command )
•Wetting Current Register (Metallic Command )
•Wetting Current Timer Register (Wetting Current Timer
Enable Command )
•Tri-State Register (Tri-State Command )
•Analog Select Register (Analog Command )
•Calibration of Timers (Calibration Command )
•Reset (Reset Command )
Figure 6, page 9, is a graphical description of the device
operation in Normal Mode. Switch states are latched into the
input register on the falling edge of CS. The INT to the MCU
is cleared on the rising edge of CS. However, INT will not
clear on rising edge of CS if a switch has closed during SPI
communication (CS LOW). This prevents switch states from
being missed by the MCU.
POWER-ON RESET (POR)
Applying VPWR to the device will cause a Power-ON Reset
and place the device in Normal Mode.
Default settings from Power-ON Reset via VPWR or Reset
Command are as follows:
• Programmable switch – set to switch to battery
• All inputs set as wake-Up
• Wetting current on (16mA)
• Wetting current timer on (20ms)
• All inputs tri-state
• Analog select 00000 (no input channel selected)
PROGRAMMABLE SWITCH REGISTER
Inputs SP0 to SP7 may be programmable for switch-tobattery or switch-to-ground. These inputs types are defined
using the settings command (Table 6). To set an SPn input
for switch-to-battery, a logic [1] for the appropriate bit must be
set. To set an SPn input for switch-to-ground, a logic [0] for
the appropriate bit must be set. The MCU may change or
update the programmable switch register via software at any
time in Normal Mode. Regardless of the setting, when the
SPn input switch is closed a logic [1] will be placed in the
serial output response register (Table 17, page 19).
NORMAL AND SLEEP MODES
The 33972 has two operating modes, Normal Mode and
Sleep Mode. A discussion on Normal Mode begins below.
A discussion on Sleep Mode begins on page 19.
Normal Mode
Normal Mode may be entered by the following events:
• Application of VPWR to the IC
• Change-of-switch state (when enabled)

WAKE-UP / INTERRUPT REGISTER
The wake-up / interrupt register defines the inputs that are
allowed to wake the 33972 from Sleep Mode or set the INT
pin LOW in Normal Mode. Programming the wake-up /
interrupt bit to logic [0] will disable the specific input from
generating an interrupt and will disable the specific input from
waking the IC in Sleep Mode (Table 7). Programming the
wake-up /interrupt bit to logic [1] will enable the specific input
to generate an interrupt with switch change of state and will
enable the specific input as wake-up. The MCU may change
or update the wake-up / interrupt register via software at any
time in Normal Mode.

WETTING CURRENT REGISTER
The 33972 has two levels of switch contact current, 16mA
and 2.0mA (see Figure 11). The metallic command is used to
set the switch contact current level (Table 8). Programming
the metallic bit to logic [0] will set the switch wetting current to
2.0mA. Programming the metallic bit to logic [1] will set the
switch contact wetting current to 16mA. The MCU may
change or update the wetting current register via software at
any time in Normal Mode.
Wetting current is designed to provide higher levels of
current during switch closure. The higher level of current is
designed to keep switch contacts from building up oxides that
form on the switch contact surface.

closed switch contact. With multiple wetting current timers
disabled, power dissipation for the IC must be considered.
The MCU may change or update the wetting current timer
register via software at any time in Normal Mode. This allows
the MCU to control the amount of time wetting current is
applied to the switch contact. Programming the wetting
current timer bit to logic [0] will disable the wetting current
timer. Programming the wetting current timer bit to logic [1]
will enable the wetting current timer (Table 9).
WETTING CURRENT TIMER REGISTER
Each switch input has a designated 20ms timer. The timer
starts when the specific switch input crosses the comparator
threshold (4.0V). When the 20ms timer expires, the contact
current is reduced from 16mA to 2.0mA. The wetting current
timer may be disabled for a specific input. When the timer is
disabled, 16mA of current will continue to flow through the

The tri-state command is use to set the SPn or SGn input
node as high-impedance (Table 10). By setting the tri-state

regardless of the metallic command setting. The comparator

ANALOG SELECT REGISTER
selects the input as high-impedance. Setting bit 6 and bit 5 to
0,1 selects 2.0mA, and 1,0 selects 16mA. Setting bit 6 and
bit 5 to 1,1 in the analog select register is not allowed and will
place the input as an analog input with high-impedance.
Analog currents set by the analog command are pull-up
currents for all SGn and SPn inputs (Table 11). The analog
command does not allow pull-down currents on the SPn
inputs. Setting the current to 16mA or 2.0mA may be useful
for reading sensor inputs. Further information is provided in
the Typical Applications section of this datasheet beginning
on page 21. The MCU may change or update the analog
select register via software at any time in Normal Mode.
The analog voltage on switch inputs may be read by the
MCU using the analog command (Table 11). Internal to the
IC is a 22-to-1 analog multiplexer. The voltage present on the
selected input pin is buffered and made available on the
AMUX output pin. The AMUX output pin is clamped to a
maximum of VDD volts regardless of the higher voltages
present on the input pin. After an input has been selected as
the analog, the corresponding bit in the next SO data stream
will be logic [0]. When selecting a channel to be read as
analog, the user must also set the desired current (16mA,
2.0mA, or high-impedance). Setting bit 6 and bit 5 to 0,0

CALIBRATION OF TIMERS
this 512μs calibration pulse. Because the oscillator frequency
changes with temperature, calibration is required for an
accurate time base. Calibrating the timers has no affect on
the quiescent current measurement. The calibration
command simply makes the time base more accurate. The
calibration command may be used to update the device on a
periodic basis.
In cases where an accurate time base is required, the user
may calibrate the internal timers using the calibration
command (Table 13). After the 33972 device receives the
calibration command, the device expects 512μs logic [0]
calibration pulse on the CS pin. The pulse is used to calibrate
the internal clock. No other SPI pins should transition during

EXAMPLE OF NORMAL MODE OPERATION
SLEEP MODE
The operation of the device in Normal Mode is defined by
the states of the programmable internal control registers. A
typical application may have the following settings:
• Programmable switch – set to switch-to-ground
• All inputs set as wake-up
• Wetting current on (16mA)
• Wetting current timer on (20ms)
• All inputs tri-state-disabled (comparator is active)
• Analog select 00000 (no input channel selected)
With the device programmed as above, an interrupt will be
generated with each switch contact change of state (open-toclose or close-to-open) and 16mA of contact wetting current
will be source for 20ms. The INT pin will remain LOW until
switch status is acknowledged by the microprocessor. It is
critical to understand INT will not be cleared on the rising
edge of CS if a switch closure occurs while CS is LOW. The
maximum duration a switch state change can exist without
acknowledgement depends on the software response time to
the interrupt. Figure 6, page 9, shows the interaction
between changing input states and the INT and CS pins.
If desired the user may disable interrupts (wake up/
interrupt command) from the 33972 device and read the
switch states on a periodic basis. Switch activation and
deactivation faster than the MCU read rate will not be
acknowledged.
The 33972 device will exit the Normal Mode and enter the
Sleep Mode only with a valid sleep command.
Sleep Mode is used to reduce system quiescent currents.
Sleep Mode may be entered only by sending the sleep
command. All register settings programmed in Normal Mode
will be maintained in Sleep Mode.
The 33972 will exit Sleep Mode and enter Normal Mode
when any of the following events occur:
• Input switch change of state (when enabled)
• Interrupt timer expire
• Falling edge of WAKE
• Falling edge of INT (with VDD = 5.0V and WAKE at
Logic [1])
• Falling edge of CS (with VDD = 5.0V)
• Power-ON Reset (POR)
The VDD supply may be removed from the device during
Sleep Mode. However removing VDD from the device in Sleep
Mode will disable a wake-up from falling edge of INT and CS.
Note In cases where CS is used to wake the device, the
first SO data message is not valid.
The sleep command contains settings for two
programmable timers for Sleep Mode, the interrupt timer and
the scan timer, as shown in Table 18 The interrupt timer is
used as a periodic wake-up timer. When the timer expires, an
interrupt is generated and the device enters Normal Mode.
Note The interrupt timer in the 33972 device may be
disabled by programming the interrupt bits to logic [1 1 1].
Table 19 shows the programmable settings of the Interrupt
timer.

The scan timer sets the polling period between input
switch reads in Sleep Mode. The period is set in the sleep
command and may be set to 000 (no period) to 111 (64ms).
In Sleep Mode when the scan timer expires, inputs will
behave as programmed prior to sleep command. The 33972
will wake up for approximately 125μs and read the switch
inputs. At the end of the 125μs, the input switch states are
compared with the switch state prior to sleep command.
When switch state changes are detected, an interrupt is
generated (when enabled; refer to wake-up / interrupt
command description on page 15), and the device enters
Normal Mode. Without switch state changes, the 33972 will
reset the scan timer, inputs become tri-state, and the Sleep
Mode continues until the scan timer expires again.
Table 20 shows the programmable settings of the Scan
timer.

state. Figure 12 illustrates the current consumed during
Sleep Mode. During the 125μs, the device is fully active and

TEMPERATURE MONITOR
With multiple switch inputs closed and the device
programmed with the wetting current timers disabled,
considerable power will be dissipated by the IC. For this
reason, temperature monitoring has been implemented. The
temperature monitor is active in the Normal Mode only. When
the IC temperature is above the thermal limit, the temperature
monitor will do all of the following:
• Generate an interrupt.
• Force all 16mA pull-up and pull-down current sources to
revert to 2.0mA current sources.
• Maintain the 2.0mA current source and all other
functionality.
• Set the thermal flag bit in the SPI output register.
The thermal flag bit in the SPI word will be cleared on rising
edge of CS provided the die temperature has cooled below
the thermal limit. When die temperature has cooled below
thermal limit, the device will resume previously programmed
settings.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
The 33972’s primary function is the detection of open or
closed switch contacts. However, there are many features
that allow the device to be used in a variety of applications.
The following is a list of applications to consider for the IC:
Sensor Power Supply
Switch Monitor for Metallic or Elastomeric Switches
Analog Sensor Inputs (Ratiometric)
Power MOSFET / LED Driver and Monitor
Multiple 33972 Devices in a Module System
The following paragraphs describe the applications in
detail.

MOSI
SCLK
CS
SCLK
Metallic switch contacts often develop higher contact
resistance over time owing to contact corrosion. The
corrosion is induced by humidity, salt, and other elements
that exist in the environment. For this reason the 33972
provides two settings for contacts. When programmed for
metallic switches, the device provides higher wetting current
to keep switch contacts free of oxides. The higher current
occurs for the first 20ms of switch closure. Where longer
duration of wetting current is desired, the user may send the
wetting current timer command and disable the timer. Wetting
current will be continuous to the closed switch. After the time
period set by the MCU, the wetting current timer command
may be sent again to enable the timer. The user must
consider power dissipation on the device when disabling the
timer. (Refer to the paragraph entitled Temperature Monitor,
page 20.)
To increase the amount of wetting current for a switch
contact, the user has two options. Higher wetting current to a
switch may be achieved by paralleling SGn or SPn inputs.
This will increase wetting current by 16mA for each input
added to the switch contact. The second option is to simply
add an external resistor pull-up to the VPWR supply for switchto-ground inputs or a resistor to ground for a switch-to-battery
input. Adding an external resistor has no effect on the
operation of the device.
Elastomeric switch contacts are made of carbon and have
a high contact resistance. Resistance of 1.0kΩ is common. In
applications with elastomeric switches, the pull-up and
pulldown currents must be reduced to prevent excessive
power dissipation at the contact. Programming for a lower
current settings is provided in the functional Device
Operation section beginning on page 13 under Table 8,
Metallic Command.

SENSOR POWER SUPPLY
Each input may be used to supply current to sensors
external to a module. Many sensors such as Hall effect,
pressure sensors, and temperature sensors require a supply
voltage to power the sensor and provide an open collector or
analog output. Figure 13 shows how the 33972 may be used
to supply power and interface to these types of sensors. In an
application where the input makes continuous transitions,
consider using the wake-up / interrupt command to disable
the interrupt for the particular input.

The 33972 features a 22-to-1 analog multiplexer. Setting
the binary code for a specific input in the analog command
allows the microcontroller to perform analog to digital
conversion on any of the 22 inputs. On rising edge of CS the
multiplexer connects a requested input to the AMUX pin. The
AMUX pin is clamped to max of VDD volts regardless of the
higher voltages present on the input pin. After an input has
been selected as the analog, the corresponding bit in the next
SO data stream will be logic [0].
The input pin, when selected as analog, may be
configured as analog with high-impedance, analog with
2.0mA pull-up, or analog with 16mA pull-up. Figure 14,
page 22, shows how the 33972 may be used to provide a
ratiometric reading of variable resistive input.

The ADC value of 213 counts is the value with 0% error
(neglecting the resistor tolerance and AMUX input offset
voltage). Now we can calculate the count value induced by
the mismatch in current sources. From a sample device the
maximum current source was measured at 2.05mA and
minimum current source was measured at 1.99mA. This
yields 3% error in A / D conversion. The A / D measurement
will be as follows:

Figure 14. Analog Ratiometric Conversion
To read a potentiometer sensor, the wiper should be
grounded and brought back to the module ground, as
illustrated in Figure 14. With the wiper changing the
impedance of the sensor, the analog voltage on the input will
represent the position of the sensor.
Using the Analog feature to provide 2.0mA of pull-up
current to an analog sensor may induce error due to the
accuracy of the current source. For this reason, a ratiometric
conversion must be considered. Using two current sources
(one for the sensor and one to set the reference voltage to the
A / D converter) will yield a maximum error (owing to the
33972) of 4%.
Higher accuracy may be achieved through module level
calibration. In this example, we use the resistor values from
Figure 14 and assume the current sources are 4% from each
other. The user may use the module end-of-line tester to
calculate the error in the A / D conversion. By placing a 2.0kΩ,
0.1% resistor in the end-of-line test equipment and assuming
a perfect 2.0mA current source from the 33972, a calculated
A / D conversion may be obtained. Using the equation yields
the following:
ADC = 207 counts
This A / D conversion is 3% low in value. The error
correction factor of 1.03 may be used to correct the value:
ADC = 207 counts x 1.03
ADC = 213 counts
An error correction factor may then be stored in E2
memory and used in the A / D calculation for the specific input.
Each input used as analog measurement will have a
dedicated calibrated error correction factor.
POWER MOSFET / LED DRIVER AND MONITOR
Because of the flexible programming of the 33972 device,
it may be used to drive small loads like LEDs or MOSFET
gates. It was specifically designed to power up in the Normal
Mode with the inputs tri-state. This was done to ensure the
LEDs or MOSFETs connected to the 33972 power up in the
off-state. The switch programmable inputs (SP0 – SP7) have
a source-and-sink capability, providing effective MOSFET
gate control. To complete the circuit, a pull-down resistor
should be used to keep the gate from floating during the
Sleep Modes. Figure 15, page 23, shows an application
where the SG0 input is used to monitor the drain-to-source
voltage of the external MOSFET. The 1.5kΩ resistor is used
to set the drain-to-source trip voltage. With the 2.0mA current
source enabled, an interrupt will be generated when the
drain-to-source voltage is approximately 1.0V.

Figure 15. MOSFET or LED Driver Output
The sequence of commands (from Normal Mode with
inputs tri-state) required to set up the device to drive a
MOSFET are as follows:
• wetting current timer enable command – Disable SPn
wetting current timer (refer to Table 9, page 15).
• metallic command – Set SPn to 16mA or 2.0mA gate
drive current (refer to Table 8, page 15).
• settings command – Set SPn as switch-to-battery (refer
to Table 6, page 14).
• tri-state command – Disable tri-state for SPn (refer to
Table 10, page 16).
After the tri-state command has been sent (tri-state
disable), the MOSFET gate will be pulled to ground. From this
point forward the MOSFET may be turned on and off by
sending the settings command :
• settings command – SPn as switch-to-ground
(MOSFET ON).
• settings command – SPn as switch-to-battery
(MOSFET OFF).
Monitoring of the MOSFET drain in the OFF state provides
open load detection. This is done by using an SGn input
comparator. With the SGn input in tri-state, the load will pull
up the SGn input to battery. With open load the SGn pin is
pulled down to ground through an external resistor. The open
load is indicated by a logic [1] in the SO data bit.
The analog command may be used to monitor the drain
voltage in the MOSFET ON state. By sourcing 2.0mA of
As the voltage on the drain of the MOSFET increases, so
does the voltage on the SGn pin. With the SGn pin selected
as analog, the MCU may perform the A / D conversion.
Using this method for controlling unclamped inductive
loads is not recommended. Inductive flyback voltages greater
than VPWR may damage the IC.
The SP0 : SP7 pins of this device may also be used to send
signals from one module to another. Operation is similar to
the gate control of a MOSFET.
• For LED applications a resistor in series with the LED is
recommended but not required. The switch-to-ground
inputs are recommended for LED application. To drive
the LED use the following commands:
• wetting current timer enable command – Disable SGn
wetting current timer.
• metallic command – Set SGn to 16mA.
From this point forward the LED may be turned on and off
using the tri-state command :
• tri-state command – Disable tri-state for SGn (LED ON).
• tri-state command – Enable tri-state for SGn (LED
OFF).
These parameters are easily programmed via SPI
commands in Normal Mode.
MULTIPLE 33972 DEVICES IN A MODULE SYSTEM
Connecting power to the 33972 and the MCU for Sleep
Mode operation may be done in several ways. Table 21
shows several system configurations for power between the
MCU and the 33972 and their specific requirements for
functionality.

Comments
All wake-up conditions apply. (Refer to Sleep
Mode, page 19.)
SPI wake-up is not possible.
Sleep Mode not possible. Current from CS pullup will flow through MCU to VDD that has been
switched off. Negative edge of CS will put
33972 in Normal Mode.
SPI wake-up is not possible.
Multiple 33972 devices may be used in a module system.
SPI control may be done in parallel or serial. However when
parallel mode is used, each device is addressed
independently (refer to MCU Interface Description, page 13).
Therefore when sending the sleep command, one device will
enter sleep before the other. For multiple devices in a system,
it is recommended that the devices are controlled in serial (S0

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
from first device is connected to SI of second device). With
two devices, 48 clock pulses are required to shift data in.
When the WAKE feature is used to enable the power supply,
both WAKE pins should be connected to the enable pin on the
power supply. The INT pins may be connected to one
interrupt pin on the MCU or may have their own dedicated
interrupt to the MCU.
The transition from Normal to Sleep Mode is done by
sending the sleep command. With the devices connected in
serial and the sleep command sent, both will enter Sleep
Mode on the rising edge of CS. When Sleep Mode is entered,
the WAKE pin will be logic [1]. If either device wakes up, the
WAKE pin will transition LOW, waking the other device.
A condition exists where the MCU is sending the sleep
command (CS logic [0]) and a switch input changes state.
With this event the device that detects this input will not
transition to Sleep Mode, while the second device will enter
Sleep Mode. In this case two switch status commands must
be sent to receive accurate switch status data. The first
switch status command will wake the device in Sleep Mode.
Switch status data may not be valid from the first switch
status command because of the time required for the input
voltage to rise above the 4.0V input comparator threshold.
This time is dependant on the impedance of SGn or SPn
node. The second switch status command will provide
accurate switch status information. It is recommended that
software wait 10ms to 20ms between the two switch status
commands, allowing time for switch input voltages to
stabilize. With all switch states acknowledged by the MCU,
the sleep sequence may be initiated. All parameters for Sleep
Mode should be updated prior to sending the sleep
command.
The 33972 IC has an internal 5.0V supply from VPWR pin.
A POR circuit monitors the internal 5.0V supply. In the event
of transients on the VPWR pin, an internal reset may occur.
Upon reset the 33972 will enter Normal Mode with the
internal registers as defined in Table 15, page 18. Therefore
it is recommended that the MCU periodically update all
registers internal to the IC.
USING THE WAKE FEATURE
The 33972 provides a WAKE output and wake-up input
designed to control an enable pin on system power supply.
While in the Normal Mode, the WAKE output is LOW,
enabling the power supply. In the Sleep Mode, the WAKE pin
is high, disabling the power supply. The WAKE pin has a
passive pull-up to the internal 5.0V supply but may be pulled
up through a resistor to the VPWR supply (see Figure 17,
page 25)
When the WAKE output is not used, the pin should be
pulled up to the VDD supply through a resistor as shown in
Figure 16, page 25.
During the Sleep Mode, a switch closure will set the WAKE
pin LOW, causing the 33972 to enter the Normal Mode. The
power supply will then be activated, supplying power to the
VDD pin and the microprocessor and the 33972. The
microprocessor can determine the source of the wake-up by
reading the interrupt flag.
COST AND FLEXIBILITY
Systems requiring a significant number of switch
interfaces have many discrete components. Discrete
components on standard PWB consume board space and
must be checked for solder joint integrity. An integrated
approach reduces solder joints, consumes less board space,
and offers wider operating voltage, analog interface
capability, and greater interfacing flexibility.
