Interfaces
Bi-directional communication with the TLE5012B is enabled by a three-wire SSC interface. In parallel to the SSC
interface, one secondary interface can be selected, which is available on the IFA, IFB, IFC pins:
•
PWM
•
Incremental Interface
•
Hall Switch Mode
•
Short PWM Code
By using pre-configured derivates (see
), the TLE5012B can also be operated with the secondary
interface only, without SSC communication.

Safety Features
The TLE5012B offers a multiplicity of safety features to support the Safety Integrity Level (SIL). Infineon’s sensors
that are intended for this purpose are identified by the following logo:

Disclaimer
PRO-SIL™ is a Registered Trademark of Infineon Technologies AG.
The PRO-SIL™ Trademark designates Infineon products which contain SIL Supporting Features.
SIL Supporting Features are intended to support the overall System Design to reach the desired SIL (according
to IEC61508) or A-SIL (according to ISO26262) level for the Safety System with high efficiency.
SIL respectively A-SIL certification for such a System has to be reached on system level by the System
Responsible at an accredited Certification Authority.
SIL stands for Safety Integrity Level (according to IEC 61508)
A-SIL stands for Automotive-Safety Integrity Level (according to ISO 26262)
Safety features are:
•
Test vectors switchable to ADC input (activated via SSC interface)
•
Inversion or combination of filter input streams (activated via SSC interface)
•
Data transmission check via 8-bit
C
yclic
R
edundancy
C
heck (
CRC
) for SSC communcation and 4-bit CRC
nibble for SPC interface
•
Built-in Self-test (BIST) routines for ISM, CORDIC, CCU, ADCs performed at startup
•
Two independent active interfaces possible
•
Overvoltage and undervoltage detection
