SPI Driver for Enhanced Relay Control
TLE7237SL
Overview
Detailed Description
The TLE7237SL is an eight channel high-side and low-side relay switch providing embedded protective functions.
The output stages incorporate two low-side switches (0.9
per channel), four high-side switches (two channels
with 0.9
and two channels with 1.6 ) and two auto-configuring high-side or low-side switches (0.9
per
channel). The auto-configuring switches can be utilized in high-side or low-side configuration just by connecting
the load accordingly. They are also suitable to switch a 5 V supply line in high-side configuration. Protective and
diagnostic functions adjust automatically to the chosen configuration.
The 8 bit serial peripheral interface (SPI) is utilized for control and diagnosis of the device and the loads. The SPI
interface provides daisy chain capability in order to assemble multiple devices in one SPI chain by using the same
number of micro-controller pins.
Furthermore, the TLE7237SL is equipped with three input pins that can be individually routed to the output control
of each channel thus offering complete flexibility in design and PCB-layout. The input multiplexer is controlled via
SPI.
The device provides full diagnosis of the load via open load, over load and short circuit detection. SPI diagnosis
flags indicate latched fault conditions that may have occurred.
Each output stage is protected against short circuit. In case of over load, the affected channel switches off. There
are temperature sensors available for each channel to protect the device against over temperature.
The device protects itself with a built in reverse polarity protection which prohibits intrinsic current flow through the
logic during reverse polarity. However the output stages still incorporate a reverse diode where current can flow
through during reverse polarity.
The power transistors are built by N-channel power MOSFETs. The inputs are ground referenced CMOS
compatible. The device is monolithically integrated in Smart Power Technology.
