7.4.1.4 STANDBY DELAY

The STANDBY DELAY state is when the ENx pins are all low, the outputs are all turned off, and the DIAG_EN pin is also low, but there has not yet been tSTBY amount of time. This state is included so that the channel outputs are able to support PWM without all of the internal rails being cut off and put into SLEEP mode. Output leakage current per channel is approximately 3µA (typical) during the STANDBY DELAY state.

After the device has waited tSTBY, the device completely shuts down and transitions into SLEEP. However, if during tSTBY, ENx goes high, the device transitions into ACTIVE without shutting completely down. Similarly if the DIAG_EN goes high, the device transitions into DIAGNOSTIC.
