Thermal shutdown is detected if the die temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown limit (TOTSD). When thermal shutdown is detected -
All MOSFETs in the H-bridges are disabled
nFAULT is driven low
Charge pump is disabled
For operation with SPI interface
FAULT, TF and OTS bits are set to 1b
The recovery from thermal shutdown protection can be in two different modes: latched shutdown and automatic retry. The recovery modes can be changed on the fly.
