7.4.5.5.2 Gate Driver Fault (VGS_GDF)

If the VGS voltage does not cross the VGS_LVL comparator level for longer than the tDRIVE time, a VGS gate fault condition is detected .

Additionally, in independent half-bridge split HS/LS PWM control (BRG_MODE = 00b) the device can be configured to disable all half-bridges or only the associated half-bridge in which the gate fault occurred through the VGS_IND register setting. In the DRV800x-Q1 PH/EN and PWM H-bridge control modes (BRG_MODE = 01b, 10b), the VGS_IND register setting can be used to disable all H-bridges or only the associated H-bridge in which the fault occurred.

The VGS gate fault monitor can respond and recover in four different modes set through the VGS_MODE register setting.

  • Latched Fault Mode: After detecting the gate fault event, the gate driver pulldowns are enabled and FAULT register bit, and associated VGS register bit asserted. After the gate fault event is removed, the fault state remains latched until CLR_FLT is issued.
  • Cycle by Cycle Mode: After detecting the gate fault event, the gate driver pulldowns are enabled and FAULT register bit, GD and associated VGS_XX register bit asserted. The next PWM input clears the FAULT register bit and reenable the driver automatically. The VGS_XX and GD bits remains asserted until CLR_FLT is issued.
  • Warning Report Only Mode: The overcurrent event is reported in the WARN and associated VGS_XX register bits. The device does not take any action. The warning remains latched until CLR_FLT is issued.
  • Disabled Mode: The VGS gate fault monitors are disabled and does not respond or report.
