1 Introduction
The TPIC7218 is an antilock brake controller designed for use in harsh automotive environments,
requiring few external components. It has eight high current low-side drivers for use with solenoid valves,
four configurable wheel speed sense inputs capable of handling both Intelligent and Active sensors, and
high-side gate drivers for controlling two external N-channel MOSFETs for use with a pump motor and
master relay. Besides this main functionality, the TPIC7218 also has drivers for warning lamps, a
high-side gate driver for controlling an external N-channel MOSFET for use with a relay, K-line driver, and
various I/O pins for other common antilock braking needs. The TPIC7218 boosts an internal charge-pump
allowing the high-side drivers to use inexpensive N-channel MOSFETs. The digital I/O pins can be
configured for both 5 V and 3.3 V levels for easy connection to any microprocessor. The TPIC7218 uses
standard SPI protocol for communication.
