TERMINAL FUNCTION DESCRIPTION (continued)
Terminal Terminal Name
Formal Name
Definition
10
SI
Serial Input
This terminal is a command data input terminal connected to the SPI Serial Data
Output of the MCU or to the SO terminal of the previous device of a daisy chain of
devices. The input requires CMOS logic level signals and incorporates an internal
active pull-down. Device control is facilitated by the input's receiving the MSB first of a
serial 8-bit control command. The MCU ensures data is available upon the falling edge
of SCLK. The logic state of SI present upon the rising edge of SCLK loads that bit
command into the internal command shift register. This terminal has an internal active
pull-down.
11
VDD
Digital Drain Voltage This terminal is an external voltage input terminal used to supply power to the SPI
(Power)
circuit. In the event VDD is lost, an internal supply provides power to a portion of the
logic, ensuring limited functionality of the device.
12
SO
Serial Output
This terminal is an output terminal connected to the SPI Serial Data Input terminal of
the MCU or to the SI terminal of the next device of a daisy chain of devices. This output
will remain tri-stated (high-impedance OFF condition) so long as the CS terminal of the
device is logic HIGH. SO is only active when the CS terminal of the device is asserted
logic LOW. The generated SO output signals are CMOS logic levels. SO output data
is available on the falling edge of SCLK and transitions immediately on the rising edge
of SCLK.
16
VPWR
Positive Power Supply This terminal connects to the positive power supply and is the source of operational
power for the device. The VPWR contact is the backside surface mount tab of the
package.

High-Side Outputs
Protected 35 mΩ high-side power output terminals to the load.
High-Side Outputs
Protected 10 mΩ high-side power output terminals to the load.
Fail-Safe Input
The value of the resistance connected between this terminal and ground determines
the state of the outputs after a Watchdog timeout occurs. Depending on the resistance
value, either all outputs are OFF or the output HSO only is ON. If the FSI terminal is
left to float up to a logic [1] level, then the outputs HS0 and HS2 will turn ON when in
the Fail-Safe state. When the FSI terminal is connected to GND, the Watchdog circuit
and Fail-Safe operation are disabled. This terminal incorporates an active internal pull-
up.
23
CSNS
Output Current
The Current Sense terminal sources a current proportional to the designated HS0–
Monitoring
HS3 output. That current is fed into a ground referenced resistor and its voltage is
monitored by an MCU's A/D. The channel to be monitored is selected via the SPI. This
terminal can be tri-stated through SPI.
Notes
1. HS1 output (17 and 18) must be connected externally on the PCB as close as possible to the terminals.
2. HS0 output (19 and 20) must be connected externally on the PCB as close as possible to the terminals.
