Demoboard Configuration
If an Arduino is used, configuration needs to be set in the software. Please refer to
3.2.2
Control Panel.
2.1
STATUS Pin Connection
BTS3011TE can be controlled with STATUS pin pulled-up to VDD to allow fault monitoring,
two possible settings of for STATUS pin

•
Jumper position
(a)
: STATUS pin is pull-
up to VDD via a Resistor of 10kΩ
when jumper connects therminal 1-
2 together. This pin configuration allows to monitor the STATUS pin (reading STATUS voltage) and to reset
the STATUS signal when latched (due to overtemperature event), STATUS and reset mechanism are
described in detail in the
•
Jumper position
(b)
: STATUS pin is not needed and is directly connected to GND. This pin configuration does
not allow to monitor the STATUS pin and no reset is possible. Note that current limitation remains active once
the device has been in fault mode. To reset the current limitation trigger and the STATUS pin, user have to
turn-off the device and set VDD to low
