ADVANCE INFORMATION
The device enters Limp Home mode when nSLEEP pin is logic low and one of the input pins is set to logic high, switching ON the channel connected to it. SPI communication is possible but only in read-only mode (SPI registers can be read but cannot be written).
UVRVM is set to 1b
MODE bits are set to 01b (Limp Home mode)
TER bit is set to 1b on the first SPI command after entering Limp Home mode. Afterwards it works normally.
OLON and OLOFF bits are set to 0b
ERRx bits work normally
OSMx bits can be read and work normally
All other registers are set to their default value and cannot be programmed as long as the device is in Limp Home mode
See Table 7-3 for a detailed overview of supply voltage conditions required to switch ON channels 2 and 3 during Limp Home. All other channels are OFF.
A transmission of SPI commands during transition from Active to Limp Home mode or Limp Home to Active mode may result in undefined SPI responses.
