8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Fail-Safe Output
In the case of a missing high-side supply voltage AVDD, the output of the ΔΣ modulator is not defined and can
cause a system malfunction. In systems with high safety requirements, this behavior is not acceptable.
Therefore, as shown in Figure 2, the AMC1303 implements a fail-safe output function that pulls the DOUT and
CLKOUT outputs (AMC1303Mx only) to a steady-state logic 1 in case of a missing AVDD.
Similarly, as also shown in Figure 43, if the common-mode voltage of the input reaches or exceeds the specified
common-mode overvoltage detection level VCMov as defined in the Electrical Characteristics table, the AMC1303
generates a steady-state bitstream of logic 1's at the DOUT output.
In both cases, the steady-state logic 1 occurs on the DOUT output with a delay of two clock cycles after the
event of either exceeded common-mode input voltage or missing AVDD. Another 256 clock cycles are required
for the CLKOUT pin of the AMC1303Mx to be held at logic 1.

8.4.2 Output Behavior in Case of a Full-Scale Input
If a full-scale input signal is applied to the AMC1303 (that is, |VIN| ≥ |VClipping|), Figure 44 shows that the device
generates a single one or zero every 128 bits at DOUT, depending on the actual polarity of the signal being
sensed. In this way, differentiating between a missing AVDD and a full-scale input signal is possible on the
system level.
