Power Switch Anti-Shoot-Through

The shoot through protection (STP) function provides an additional layer of protection from shoot through conditions due to incorrect PWM commands from MCU. The output of the driver uses IN+ and the complementary PWM signal provided to the IN- input to set the output state of the driver, as shown in Figure 3-23. Both the IN+ and IN- inputs are deglitched, which is programmable. Additionally, the output of the driver only goes high once the deglitched IN+ is high and for a programmable dead time after the deglitched IN- is low. If IN+ and IN- are both high at the same time, a shoot-through condition is detected, and is reported to a Status Register and, if unmasked, the nFLT1 output pulls low. The output of the driver is forced to the state defined by a Configuration setting. The STP function is disabled by setting the dead time to be 0 and connecting the IN- input low so the output simply follows IN+.
