7.3.6.2 Multiplexing of Current Sense

SEL pin is used to multiplex the shared current-sense function among the two channels within the same device. Pulling the pin high or low sets the corresponding channel to be output on the SNS pin if DIAG_EN is high. FLT represents a global interrupt that goes low if a fault occurs on any channel, except for open load and short-to-battery faults. For open load and short-to-battery faults, FLT goes low only if the selected channel has the fault.

If current sense information is multiplexed across different devices, do not directly tie the SNS pins together across multiple devices. When the DIAG_EN is LOW, there is an internal clamp at SNS pin that clamps the voltage to approximately 2V. One device SNS pin can affect the SNS readback of other devices if tied directly.

To use the SNS pin across multiple devices, connect individual SNS pin to different analog input pins of MCU, as illustrated in Figure 7-15. Alternatively, an external analog MUX can be used to connect to one MCU pin, as illustrated in Figure 7-16.
