PRODUCTION DATA.
The MODE pin of the hardware version of the device determines the control interface and latches on power-up or when exiting sleep mode. Table 14 lists the different control interfaces that can be set with the MODE pin.
MODE | CONTROL MODE |
---|---|
L | PH/EN |
H | PWM |
Hi-Z (200 kΩ ± 5% to GND) | Independent half bridge |
When the MODE pin is latched on power-up or when exiting sleep mode; any additional changes to the signal at the MODE pin are ignored by the device. To change the mode settings, a power cycle or sleep reset must be performed on the device. To use the device in PWM mode, tie the MODE pin to either the DVDD pin or an external 5-V rail. To use the device in independent half-bridge mode, the MODE pin must be connected to with a 200-kΩ ± 5% resistor (or left as a no connect). Tying the MODE pin to the GND pin puts the device in phase and enable (PH/EN) mode.
