8.3.5 LIMP Function

The LIMP pin is for the limp home function and is an open-drain, active low, output. The pin is used for a limp home mode if the watchdog has timed out causing a reset. Pull up the pin with an external resistor connected to a supply, typically, the battery supply, VSUP. For the LIMP pin to be turned off, verify that the watchdog error counter reaches zero from correct input triggers or SPI write of 1b into LIMP_RESET bit (8'h1A[1]). If programmed, any event that triggers the fail-safe mode also turns on the LIMP pin. Configure the LIMP pin as active in Sleep mode in case of VCC1SC, OVCC1, Watchdog error or thermal shutdown faults using the register bit LIMP_SLP_FLT_EN (8'h1A[7]). This feature enables LIMP to be activated on entering Sleep mode due to any faults in case fail-safe mode is disabled.

Program the LIMP pin for use as a low-side switch. Configure the low-side switch using the register bit LIMP_LSS_SEL. To use the pin as low-side switch, disable the LIMP functionality using the register bit LIMP_DIS. Otherwise, the device ignores the low-side switch setting. Use the low-side switch as either always On or always Off or configure to use PWM1, PWM2, Timer1, or Timer2 using the register bit LIMP_LSS_CNTL.
