Signal Characteristics

Specifications apply over all line, load conditions, unless otherwise noted;

Temperature Monitor

• The TM pin is a standard analog I/O configured as an output from an internal µC.

• The TM pin monitors the internal temperature of the controller IC within an accuracy of ±5°C.

• µC 250 kHz PWM output internally pulled high to 3.3 V.

Enable / Disable Control

• The EN pin is a standard analog I/O configured as an input to an internal µC.

• It is internally pulled high to 3.3 V.

• When held low the BCM internal bias will be disabled and the powertrain will be inactive.

• In an array of BCMs, EN pins should be interconnected to synchronize startup and permit startup into full load conditions.
