Design 1: DC-Link Monitoring

This application is intended for the initial power stage in applications with the 800V DC-Links. The TPS371K-Q1 utilizes high-voltage SENSE inputs to monitor an automotive high voltage DC-Link rail without needing external resistors. This keeps the overall size low while still achieving voltage fault monitoring.

Figure 8-1 illustrates an example of how the TPS371K-Q1 is monitoring the battery voltage for faults while providing a buffer for voltage telemetry.
