8.2.4.1.3 Wire-Break Detection

Each channel has a wire-break detection circuit which includes a secondary comparator to detect the integrity of field sensor wiring. The sensor or a switch has a wire break resistor across the sensor or switch which passes a small current above 240µA to the INx. If the input current is below the IWB, the WBx in the SPI register is set and is flagged on the nFAULT pin. Wire-break detection works only in Sink Mode and when an LED or diode is used. The wire-break resistor RIWB is calculated as per the equation:

Equation 14. RIWB = (VINx- VLED) / IWB - RTHR

where VINx is the excitation voltage for the sensor or switch connected and VLED is the diode drop of the LED or diode (typically 2V).
