6.19 BUSY/SYNC
pin
This pin is an open drain output which can be used as busy flag or synchronization signal
according to the SYNC_EN bit value (STEP_MODE register) (see
).
6.20 FLAG
pin
By default, an internal open drain transistor pulls the FLAG pin to ground when at least one
of the following conditions occurs:
●
Power-up or standby/reset exit
●
Overcurrent detection
●
Thermal warning
●
Thermal shutdown
●
UVLO
●
UVLO on ADC input
●
Switch turn-on event
●
Command error.
It is possible to mask one or more alarm conditions by programming the ALARM_EN
register (see
). If the corresponding bit of the ALARM_EN register is
low, the alarm condition is masked and it does not cause a FLAG pin transition; all other
actions imposed by alarm conditions are performed anyway. In case of daisy chain
configuration, FLAG pins of different ICs can be OR-wired to save host controller GPIOs.
