The 8 -bit serial peripheral interface (SPI) is able
to control the device's eight channels and to
provide its load's diagnosis. In addition output 1
and 2 can also be controlled through dedicated
input pins NON1 and NON2.
Description
The L9826 is a protected octal low-side driver IC
designed for the automotive environment.

Overcurrent and short-circuit protections are
present as well as the output voltage clamping
which is able to protect the L9826 during
operation with inductive loads.

For higher current capability the two outputs of the same kind can be paralleled and the
maximum flyback energy should not exceed the limit for a single output.
The circuit immunity at output transients have been verified during the characterization with
Test Pulses 1, 2, 3a and 3b, DIN40839 or ISO7637 part 3.
The Test Pulses are coupled to the outputs with 200 pF series capacitor and all the outputs
are able to withstand to test pulses without damage. The load applied was in the range of 30
to 100 ohm for the resistive part and 0 to 600 mH for the inductive one.

Functional description
5.1
General
The L9826 is an 8-channel low-side driver assembled in SO20 package. Its 8-bit SPI serial
interface is designed to control all the outputs and to provide their diagnosis. Channels 1
and 2 are controlled either via SPI or via parallel through the inputs pins NON1 and NON2.
Diagnostic recognizes operative fault conditions: open load, short circuits to GND or to VB
and overcurrent.Thermal shutdown for outputs 1 and 2 is available as well the output voltage
clamp which is essential in case of working with inductive loads.
The reset feature is an OR function of the external reset nRes and the internal reset
generate during the undervoltage condition
5.2
Output stage control
5.2.1
Via parallel, only for output 1 and 2
This is valid only for Outputs 1 and 2 which are controlled through the dedicated inputs
NON1 and NON2 (both active low) which are internally configured as pull-up (see Figure 3).
This is to guarantee that the outputs are off in case of inputs open.
A further feature is the possibility to drive these outputs through a PWM signal
independently by SPI commands.
Reset signal is common for all the eight channels and it is active low. After an external reset
condition (that means NRES pin switched from low to high) to drive outputs 1 and 2 through
the parallel input (NON1 and NON2) it is necessary to disable the parallel input itself
(NON1, NON2 high) and then subsequently to drive the outputs 1 and 2 at the logic state
desiderated through NON1 and NON2. The duration of the command (T) as reported in the
Figure 4 should be at less in the order of 100 nSecond.
In the next Figure 4 is shown this behavior and in the next Table 7 is summarized the
scenario of parallel/series commands.

Via 8-bit SPI for all the outputs
Control data are transmitted to SDI through a microcontroller in configuration master. The
device is selected when NCS signal is low. The 8-bit command data are transmitted into
L9826 shift registers every CLK falling edge (see Figure 6 for SPI signals timing).
The NCS rising edge latches the new data from the shift register to the driver and the output
are driven following the commands just sent.
The digital filter between NCS and the output latch ensures that the data are transferred
only after 8 CLK cycles or multiple of 8 CLK cycles since the last NCS falling edge.
The NCS changes only at low CLK.
Figure 5 shows the control register structure and in the detail its control-bit, while in the
Table 7 are summarized the controls outputs via SPI or dedicated input pins (NON1 and
NON2).

Output stage diagnostics
All the outputs voltage are compared with the diagnostic threshold (0.38 Typ · VCC) and this
information is transferred in dedicated fault latches which are cleared when the NCS
reaches the state low. Afterward the latch stores the status bit and the first reading after the
error might be wrong. The second one is considered right.
The next Figure 7 and 8 show the diagnostic bits read out on SDO and their organization
into the dedicated registers.
When NCS is low the data contained in the shift register are transferred to SDO output every
CLK rising edge.

5.3.1
Functional description
Diagnostic on Outputs 1 and 2 controlled via NON1/NON2
Fault condition (1) "output shorted to Vbat"
The output has been previously switched-on and its voltage exceeds the diagnostics
threshold. It operates in current regulation mode or it is switched-off if thermal shutdown
threshold (TJSC) is reached. The status bit is low.
Fault condition (2) "open load" or "output shorted to GND"
The output is switched-off and its voltage drops below the diagnostics threshold because
the load current is lower than the output diagnostic current source. The diagnostic bit is low.

Diagnostic on Outputs 1 to 8 controlled via SPI
Fault condition (1) "output shorted to Vbat"
The output was previously switched-on, its voltage exceeds the diagnostic threshold and the
result is that the output is switched-off. The diagnostic bit is high.
Fault condition (2) "open load" or "output shorted to GND"
It is the same behavior explained for the outputs 1 and 2 (see paragraph 5.3.1), at NCS
falling edge the output status data are transferred to the shift register.

Protections
5.4.1
Flyback current
L9826
Turning off the low side driver with an inductive load, its output voltage rises due to the
inductor that tries to drive current. This voltage is internally clamped by the flyback circuit at
VCPL value, typical 50V
5.4.2
Current regulation mode outputs 1 and 2
Outputs 1 and 2 which are particularly dedicated for loads with inrush current (as lamps).
When the channel is switched on and the current through the load exceeds the short circuit
limit value (Ilim) for at least tdf time, the corresponding output goes in current regulation
mode.
The output current is determinated by the output characteristic and its voltage depends on
load resistance. In this mode, high power is dissipated in the output stage and its
temperature increases rapidly. When the output stage temperature exceeds the thermal
shutdown (TJSC), the overload latch is set and the corresponding output is switched off.
5.4.3
Short circuits outputs 3 to 8
Outputs 3 to 8 which are dedicated for loads without inrush currents. When the output
current exceeds the short circuit threshold (Isbc) for at least Tscb time, the corresponding
output is switched-off immediately and in the same time, the relative latch store the overload
status.
