2.2.2 V1/PNP connections
The V1 supply voltage is generated by the internal 5 V or 3.3 V regulator, depending
on the UJA1169A variant, and is intended to supply the external microcontroller. It also
determines the IO reference level.
The V1 output voltage can be accessed at pin 8 on connector J3. Decoupling capacitor
C8 is provided to stabilize the output voltage and remove noise. LED D5, connected
via resistor R9, indicates the status of V1 (on when V1 active). Jumper J7 can be used
to connect V1 to J5-03 if needed as an MCU IO reference voltage. PNP pins can be

Table 4. V1/PNP connections
The internal V1 voltage regulator on the UJA1169A can deliver up to 250 mA without
the need for an external PNP transistor. However, if critical thermal requirements need
to be satisfied, it is possible to connect one or more external PNP transistors to share
the total V1 load current, and therefore also share the thermal dissipation. The PNP
transistor switches on when the load current exceeds the selected PNP activation
threshold, I
