Important: for the capability of driving the full current at the outputs all
pins of GND must be externally connected.
OUT6
Highside-driver-output 6
The output is built by a highside switch and is intended for resistive
loads, hence the internal reverse diode from GND to the output is
missing. For ESD reason a diode to GND is present but the energy
which can be dissipated is limited. The highside driver is a power
DMOS transistor with an internal parasitic reverse diode from the
output to VS (bulk-drain-diode). The output is over-current and open
load protected.
Important: for the capability of driving the full current at the outputs both
pins of OUT6 must be externally connected.

OUT3
Half-bridge-output 1,2,3
The output is built by a highside and a lowside switch, which are
internally connected. The output stage of both switches is a power
DMOS transistor. Each driver has an internal parasitic reverse diode
(bulk-drain-diode: highside driver from output to VS, lowside driver from
GND to output). This output is over-current and open load protected.
VS
Power supply voltage (external reverse protection required)
For this input a ceramic capacitor as close as possible to GND is
recommended.
Important: for the capability of driving the full current at the outputs all
pins of VS must be externally connected.
DI
Serial data input
The input requires CMOS logic levels and receives serial data from the
microcontroller. The data is an 24bit control word and the least
significant bit (LSB, bit 0) is transferred first.
Current monitor output/PWM2 input
Depending on the selected multiplexer bits of Input Data Register this
CM/PWM2 output sources an image of the instant current through the
corresponding highside driver with a ratio of 1/10.000. This pin is
bidirectional. The microcontroller can overdrive the current monitor
signal to provide a second PWM input for the output OUT5.
CSN
Chip select not input / testmode
This input is low active and requires CMOS logic levels. The serial data
transfer between L9954 and micro controller is enabled by pulling the
input CSN to low level.

DO
Serial data output
The diagnosis data is available via the SPI and this tristate-output. The
output will remain in tristate, if the chip is not selected by the input CSN
(CSN = high)

For this input a ceramic capacitor as close as possible to GND is
recommended.
13
CLK
Serial clock input
This input controls the internal shift register of the SPI and requires
CMOS logic levels.

Application information
3.1
Dual power supply: VS and VCC
The power supply voltage VS supplies the half bridges and the highside drivers. An internal
charge-pump is used to drive the highside switches. The logic supply voltage VCC (stabilized
5 V) is used for the logic part and the SPI of the device.
Due to the independent logic supply voltage the control and status information will not be
lost, if there are temporary spikes or glitches on the power supply voltage. In case of poweron (VCC increases from undervoltage to VPOR OFF = 4.2 V) the circuit is initialized by an
internally generated power-on-reset (POR). If the voltage VCC decreases under the
minimum threshold (VPOR ON = 3.4 V), the outputs are switched to tristate (high impedance)
and the status registers are cleared.
3.2
Standby mode
The standby mode of the L9954 is activated by clearing the bit 23 of the Input Data Register
0. All latched data will be cleared and the inputs and outputs are switched to high
impedance. In the standby mode the current at VS (VCC) is less than 6 µA (50µA) for
CSN = high (DO in tristate). By switching the VCC voltage a very low quiescent current can
be achieved. If bit 23 is set, the device will be switched to active mode.
3.3
Inductive loads
Each half bridge is built by an internally connected highside and a lowside power DMOS
transistor. Due to the built-in reverse diodes of the output transistors, inductive loads can be
driven at the outputs OUT1 to OUT3 without external free-wheeling diodes. The highside
drivers OUT4 to OUT6 are intended to drive resistive loads. Hence only a limited energy
(E<1mJ) can be dissipated by the internal ESD-diodes in freewheeling condition. For
inductive loads (L>100μH) an external free-wheeling diode connected to GND and the
corresponding output is needed.
3.4
Diagnostic functions
All diagnostic functions (over/open load, power supply over-/undervoltage, temperature
warning and thermal shutdown) are internally filtered and the condition has to be valid for at
least 32 µs (open load: 1ms, respectively) before the corresponding status bit in the status
registers will be set. The filters are used to improve the noise immunity of the device. Open
load and temperature warning function are intended for information purpose and will not
change the state of the output drivers. On contrary, the overload condition will disable the
corresponding driver (over-current) and overtemperature will switch off all drivers (thermal
shutdown). Without setting the over-current recovery bits in the Input Data register, the
microcontroller has to clear the over-current status bits to reactivate the corresponding
drivers.
Doc ID 14279 Rev 3
19/37
Application information
3.5
L9954 / L9954XP
Overvoltage and undervoltage detection
If the power supply voltage VS rises above the overvoltage threshold VSOV OFF (typical 21
V), the outputs OUT1 to OUT6 are switched to high impedance state to protect the load.
When the voltage VS drops below the undervoltage threshold VSUV OFF (UV-switch-OFF
voltage), the output stages are switched to the high impedance to avoid the operation of the
power devices without sufficient gate driving voltage (increased power dissipation). If the
supply voltage VS recovers (register 0: bit 20=0) to normal operating voltage the outputs
stages return to the programmed state after at least 32 µs.
If the undervoltage/overvoltage recovery disable bit is set, the automatic turn-on of the
drivers is deactivated. The microcontroller needs to clear the status bits to reactivate the
drivers. It is strongly recommended to set bit 20 to avoid a possible high current oscillation in
case of a shorted output to GND and low battery voltage.
3.6
Charge pump
The charge pump runs under all conditions in normal mode. In standby the charge pump is
out of action.
3.7
Temperature warning and thermal shutdown
If junction temperature rises above Tj TW a temperature warning flag is set after at least 32
µs and is detectable via the SPI. If junction temperature increases above the second
threshold Tj SD, the thermal shutdown bit will be set and power DMOS transistors of all
output stages are switched off to protect the device after at least 32 µs. Temperature
warning flag and thermal shutdown bit are latched and must be cleared by the
microcontroller. The related bit is only cleared if the temperature decreases below the
trigger temperature. If the thermal shutdown bit has been cleared the output stages are
reactivated.
3.8
Open-load detection
The open load detection monitors the load current in each activated output stage. If the load
current is below the open load detection threshold for at least 1 ms (tdOL) the corresponding
open load bit is set in the status register. Due to mechanical/electrical inertia of typical loads
a short activation of the outputs (e.g. 3ms) can be used to test the open load status without
changing the mechanical/electrical state of the loads.
3.9
Over load detection
In case of an over-current condition a flag is set in the status register in the same way as
open load detection. If the over-current signal is valid for at least tISC = 32 µs, the overcurrent flag is set and the corresponding driver is switched off to reduce the power
dissipation and to protect the integrated circuit. If the over-current recovery bit of the output
is zero the microcontroller has to clear the status bits to reactivate the corresponding driver.
20/37
Doc ID 14279 Rev 3
L9954 / L9954XP
3.10
Application information
Current monitor
The current monitor output sources a current image at the current monitor output which has
a fixed ratio (1/10000) of the instantaneous current of the selected highside driver. Signal at
output CM is blanked after switching on of driver until correct settlement of circuitry (at least
for 32 µs).
The bits 18 and 19 of the Input Data Register 0 control which of the outputs OUT1, OUT4,
OUT5 and OUT6 will be multiplexed to the current monitor output. The current monitor
output allows a more precise analysis of the actual state of the load rather than the detection
of an open- or overload condition. For example this can be used to detect the motor state
(starting, free-running, stalled). Moreover, it is possible to regulate the power of the defroster
more precise by measuring the load current. The current monitor output is bidirectional (c.f.
PWM inputs).
3.11
PWM inputs
Each driver has a corresponding PWM enable bit which can be programmed by the SPI
interface. If the PWM enable bit in Input Data Register 1 is set , the output is controlled by
the logically AND-combination of the PWM signal and the output control bit in Input Data
Register 0. The outputs OUT1-OUT4 and OUT6 are controlled by the PWM1 input and the
output OUT5 is controlled by the bidirectional input CM/PMW2. For example, the two PWM
inputs can be used to dim two lamps independently by external PWM signals.
3.12
Cross-current protection
The three half-bridges of the device are cross-current protected by an internal delay time. If
one driver (LS or HS) is turned-off the activation of the other driver of the same half bridge
will be automatically delayed by the cross-current protection time. After the cross-current
protection time is expired the slew-rate limited switch-off phase of the driver will be changed
to a fast turn-off phase and the opposite driver is turned-on with slew-rate limitation. Due to
this behavior it is always guaranteed that the previously activated driver is totally turned-off
before the opposite driver will start to conduct.

Programmable softstart function to drive loads with higher
inrush current
Loads with start-up currents higher than the over-current limits (e.g. inrush current of lamps,
start current of motors and cold resistance of heaters) can be driven by using the
programmable softstart function (i.e. overcurrent recovery mode). Each driver has a
corresponding over-current recovery bit. If this bit is set, the device will automatically switchon the outputs again after a programmable recovery time. The duty cycle in over-current
condition can be programmed by the SPI interface to be about 15% ...25%. The PWM
modulated current will provide sufficient average current to power up the load (e.g. heat up
the bulb) until the load reaches operating condition. The PWM frequency settles at 1.5 kHz
or 3 kHz. The device itself cannot distinguish between a real overload and a non linear load
like a light bulb. A real overload condition can only be qualified by time. As an example the
microcontroller can switch on light bulbs by setting the over-current recovery bit for the first
50ms. After clearing the recovery bit the output will be automatically disabled if the overload
condition still exits.

Functional description of the SPI

Functional description of the SPI
4.1
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
This device uses a standard SPI to communicate with a microcontroller. The SPI can be
driven by a microcontroller with its SPI peripheral running in following mode: CPOL = 0 and
CPHA = 0.
For this mode, input data is sampled by the low to high transition of the clock CLK, and
output data is changed from the high to low transition of CLK.
This device is not limited to microcontroller with a build-in SPI. Only three CMOS-compatible
output pins and one input pin will be needed to communicate with the device. A fault
condition can be detected by setting CSN to low. If CSN = 0, the DO-pin will reflect the
status bit 0 (fault condition) of the device which is a logical-or of all bits in the status registers
0 and 1. The microcontroller can poll the status of the device without the need of a full SPIcommunication cycle.
Note:
In contrast to the SPI-standard the least significant bit (LSB) will be transferred first
(see Figure 3).
4.2
Chip Select Not (CSN)
The input pin is used to select the serial interface of this device. When CSN is high, the
output pin (DO) will be in high impedance state. A low signal will activate the output driver
and a serial communication can be started. The state when CSN is going low until the rising
edge of CSN will be called a communication frame. If the CSN-input pin is driven above
7.5V, the L9954 will go into a test mode. In the test mode the DO will go from tri-state to
active mode.
4.3
Serial Data In (DI)
The input pin is used to transfer data serial into the device. The data applied to the DI will be
sampled at the rising edge of the CLK signal and shifted into an internal 24 bit shift register.
At the rising edge of the CSN signal the contents of the shift register will be transferred to
Data Input Register. The writing to the selected Data Input Register is only enabled if exactly
24 bits are transmitted within one communication frame (i.e. CSN low). If more or less clock
pulses are counted within one frame the complete frame will be ignored. This safety function
is implemented to avoid an activation of the output stages by a wrong communication frame.
Note:
Due to this safety functionality a daisy chaining of SPI is not possible. Instead, a parallel
operation of the SPI bus by controlling the CSN signal of the connected ICs is
recommended.
4.4
Serial Data Out (DO)
The data output driver is activated by a logical low level at the CSN input and will go from
high impedance to a low or high level depending on the status bit 0 (fault condition). The first
rising edge of the CLK input after a high to low transition of the CSN pin will transfer the
Doc ID 14279 Rev 3
23/37
Functional description of the SPI
L9954 / L9954XP
content of the selected status register into the data out shift register. Each subsequent
falling edge of the CLK will shift the next bit out.
4.5
Serial clock (CLK)
The CLK input is used to synchronize the input and output serial bit streams. The data input
(DI) is sampled at the rising edge of the CLK and the data output (DO) will change with the
falling edge of the CLK signal.
4.6
Input data register
The device has two input registers. The first bit (bit 0) at the DI-input is used to select one of
the two Input Registers. All bits are first shifted into an input shift register. After the rising
edge of CSN the contents of the input shift register will be written to the selected Input Data
Register only if a frame of exact 24 data bits are detected. Depending on bit 0 the contents
of the selected status register will be transferred to DO during the current communication
frame. Bit 1-17 controls the behavior of the corresponding driver.
If bit 23 is zero, the device will go into the standby-mode. The bits 18 and 19 are used to
control the current monitor multiplexer. Bit 22 is used to reset all status bits in both status
registers. The bits in the status registers will be cleared after the current communication
frame (rising edge of CSN).
4.7
Status register
This devices uses two status registers to store and to monitor the state of the device. No
error bit (bit 0) is used as a fault bit and is a logical-NOR combination of bits 1-22 in both
status registers. The state of this bit can be polled by the microcontroller without the need of
a full SPI-communication cycle. If one of the over-current bits is set, the corresponding
driver will be disabled. If the over-current recovery bit of the output is not set the
microcontroller has to clear the over-current bit to enable the driver. If the thermal shutdown
bit is set, all drivers will go into a high impedance state. Again the microcontroller has to
clear the bit to enable the drivers.

If a bit is set the selected
output driver is switched
on. If the corresponding
PWM enable bit is set
(Input Register 1) the
driver is only activated if
PWM1 (PWM2) input
signal is high. The outputs
of OUT1-OUT3 are half
bridges. If the bits of HSand LS-driver of the same
half bridge are set, the
internal logic prevents that
both drivers of this output
stage can be switched on
simultaneously in order to
avoid a high internal
current from VS to GND.

The open load detection
monitors the load current
in each activated output
stage. If the load current
is below the open load
detection threshold for at
least 1 ms (tdOL) the
corresponding open load
bit is set. Due to
mechanical/electrical
inertia of typical loads a
short activation of the
outputs (e.g. 3ms) can
be used to test the open
load status without
changing the
mechanical/electrical
state of the loads.
