VR Sensor Interface
The differential inputs, VR_HI and VR_LO are low impedance inputs with a DC voltage bias of one half of Vcc, Both
inputs require equal value series resistance on their respective pins to convert the VR sensor voltage to a differential input current. The differential input current range is typically
2.5µA peak-to-peak to 2.5mA peak-to-peak. Each input has
active current limiting that will clamp the current at typically
+/-5mA. This is intended for short circuit protection and not
for input signal limiting.
DS101264-21
FIGURE 10. VR Sensor Interface Block Diagram
Differential voltages of 500mV peak-to-peak to 500V peakto-peak can be processed with the specified 100KΩ series
resistor on each input. Numerous variables will determine
the output voltage signal from a VR sensor across a frequency range. The input resistors can be scaled from typically 50KΩ to 200KΩ to keep the differential input current
with-in the recommended range for a given VR Sensor output voltage. Bypass capacitors can be added to form a low
pass filter to limit the differential input signal at the higher frequencies.
The VR Sensor interface utilizes a dynamic hysteresis which
will increase the hysteresis level as the input signal from the
VR Sensor increases. The circuit requires two external components to fully implement the hysteresis function: a capacitor on VR_FC to filter and store the peak detector signals;
and a 150KΩ resistor on VR_BIAS to set a reference current
for the hysteresis circuit. The typical value range for the peak
detector storage capacitor is 0.1µF to 0.47µF.
The peak detector has an internal 3KΩ (typical) current limiting resistor to Vcc for charging the storage capacitor. An external resistor in parallel with the peak detector storage capacitor is used to set the RC discharge rate of the peak
detector capacitor.
For input levels greater than typically 10µA peak-to-peak the
voltage on the peak detector output pin VR_FC is used to ac-

FIGURE 11. Voltage Comparator Block Diagram
Voltage Comparators
The circuit includes four general purpose voltage comparators that use an internal reference voltage to set their voltage
thresholds. Three of the comparators have their noninverting inputs tied to the internal reference voltage, and
their inverting-inputs are brought out. The remaining one
comparator has its inverting input tied to the internal voltage
reference, and its non-inverting input is brought out. All four
comparators include hysteresis to improve noise immunity.
The comparator outputs are internally pulled up to VCC. Any
un-used comparator should have its input connected to device ground.

tively derive the hysteresis level. The active hysteresis will
typically be 30% of the peak input signal. As the input level
falls below typically 10µA peak-to-peak the hysteresis level
will begin to rise as the static hysteresis level takes effect.
The static hysteresis level is set by the current out of the VR_BIAS pin and is a constant level of typically 1µA peak with
a VR_BIAS resistor of 150KΩ. This static hysteresis level
acts as the minimum detect threshold as there will be no output if the input signal is not greater than the static hysteresis
level.
The VR_BIAS resistor can be scaled from typically 50KΩ to
500KΩ, but the practical range is typically 75KΩ to 300KΩ.
Increasing the resistance (i.e. reducing the current) will lower
the minimum hysteresis level. Conversely, reducing the resistance will raise the minimum hysteresis level. Since the
VR_BIAS current is modified by the same square root circuit
used for the input signal, the relationship between the VR_BIAS resistor value and the minimum detect level is not linear. For VR_BIAS values greater than 500KΩ, the minimum
detect level is typically determined more by the internal device offsets, and thermal effects.

Pins D0 and D1 are used select an output, and ENB will enable the selected output. The outputs have have active pull
up to S_HI, and the active pull down to Ground. The default
not enabled output conditions is low, and the enabled output
condition is high. Only one output can be enabled (high) at a
time. The outputs are not latched in any state and will follow
the input selected with D0 and D1 as long as ENB is high.
The detection of an output shorted to ground, or battery, is
dependent on the status of ENB. While ENB is logical 0, all
of the outputs are forced low and the Short to Battery fault
detection circuitry is active. A Short to Battery is detected by
monitoring the voltage on the output pins. If the voltage on
any output pin is above the Fault Threshold Voltage (VFAULT)
the FAULT pin will go low. The output current sink is limited
to typically 8mA. The short to battery condition must be able
to provide enough current to overcome the current limit and
raise the output pin voltage above the VFAULT threshold.
When ENB is logical 1, the selected output will be high and
the Short to Ground detection circuitry is active. A Short to
Ground is detected by monitoring the voltage on the output
pins. If the voltage on the selected output pin is below the
Fault Threshold Voltage (VFAULT) the FAULT pin will go low.
The output current source is from S_HI limited to typically
25mA to 50mA across the S_HI voltage range. The short to
ground condition must be allow enough resistance to allow
the output pin voltage to fall below the VFAULT threshold with
the output sourcing short circuit current. Typically, a short to
ground which has 100 Ohms of resistance, or more, can not
be reliably detected. Typically, a short to ground of 20 Ohms,
or less, can be reliably detected across the entire S_HI voltage range and device operating temperature range. Note
that if any output has a Short to Battery fault, a Short to
The Electronic Timing Interface provide signals to the spark
module from the micro-processor. The interface requires four
input data signals, and provides four output control channels.
The interface also provides one output channel for diagnostic information for any open or shorted loads on S1 to S4.
The RESET pin has an internal pull-up resistor to VCC of typically 100KΩ, and the ENB pin has an internal pull-down resistor to ground of typically 100KΩ.
To put the outputs into the TRI-STATE mode at power-on,
the RESET pin should be held low until VCC is above 4.75V.
This can be accomplished by micro-processor control, or by
adding a capacitor from the RESET pin to ground.
The RESET pin is used to disable the spark driver outputs by
putting them in a TRI-STATE mode. While in the TRI-STATE
mode the Open Output Fault detection circuitry is active. An
open Output is detected by forcing a small current (IFOL)
through the outputs to the loads, and monitoring the voltage
on the output pins rises above the Output Fault Threshold
Voltage (VFAULT) the FAULT pin will be forced low. The intent
is to detect an open wire condition, and not necessarily to
detect a local resistance threshold.
Note that if any output has a Short to battery fault, the fault
pin will go low during this TRI-STATE mode. The internal
comparator is unable to discern why an output pin may be
above the Fault Threshold Voltage, only that it is. In any
case, a fault is reported, even if it is not the anticipated fault.
The TRI-STATE mode is a latched condition. For the outputs
to come out of the TRI-STATE mode, the RESET pin must be
high, and then the data input pin D0 must toggle from a low
state to a high state. The state of the outputs will now be set
by the data inputs D0 and D1, and the ENB input. If ENB is
low when the TRI-STATE mode is cleared, all of the outputs
will go low.

Figure 15. FAULT Pin Output During Normal Operation
pin cannot change instantly, the FAULT pin will go low during
the output transition times. The FAULT pin will stay low until
the output voltage rises above, or falls below, the active fault
threshold. See Figure 15.
When switching the outputs from the active mode to the TRISTATE mode the ENB should be taken low first. This will
take all of the outputs low. Then the RESET pin can be taken
low. This will eliminate false ’open’ faults that will be generated while waiting for the one output that was high, to discharge any capacitance below the VFAULT threshold.
Ground cannot be detected. The internal logic is unable to
discern which output pin is above the Fault Threshold Voltage, only that a pin is. Thus, the logical requirement of an Sx
pin voltage above the Fault Threshold voltage is met and no
fault is reported.
The output rise and fall times are basically a function of the
output current drive (source and sink) and the output load
characteristics. Due to the scaling of the output stages, and
variations in the value of S_HI, the fall time will typically be
two to ten times longer than the rise time for a given capacitive load.
Since the output fault detection mode changes immediately
with the status of the ENB pin, and the voltage on the output
