TDF8599A
I
2
C-bus controlled dual channel class-D power amplifier
In non-I
2
C-bus mode, when an offset is detected, DCP always gives diagnostic
information on pin DIAG and shuts down both channels.
Connecting a capacitor between pins DCP and AGND enables DC offset protection.
Connecting pin DCP to pin AGND disables DCP in both I
2
C-bus and non-I
2
C-bus mode.
8.5.6 Supply voltages
UnderVoltage Protection (UVP) is activated when the supply voltage drops below the UVP
threshold. UVP triggers the UVP circuit causing the system to first mute and then stop
switching. When the supply voltage rises above the threshold level, the system restarts.
OverVoltage Protection (OVP) is activated when the supply voltage exceeds the OVP
threshold. The OVP (or load dump) circuit is activated and the power stages are
shutdown.
An overview of all protection circuits and the amplifier states is given in Table 10.
8.5.7 Overview of protection circuits and amplifier states
[1] When fault is removed.
[2] Amplifier gain depends on the junction temperature and size of the heat sink.
[3] TFP influences restart timing depending on heat sink size.
[4] Shorted load causes a restart of the channel every 50 ms.
[5] Latched protection is reset by toggling pin EN or by disabling DCP in I
2
C-bus mode.
[6] In I
2
C-bus mode deep supply voltage drops will cause a Power-On Reset (POR). The restart requires an
I
2
C-bus command.
8.6 Diagnostic output
8.6.1 Diagnostic table
The diagnostic information for I
2
C-bus mode and non-I
2
C-bus mode is shown in Table 11.
The instruction bitmap and data bytes are described in Table 14 and Table 15.
Pins DIAG and CLIP have an open-drain output which must have an external pull-up
resistor connected to an external voltage. Pins CLIP and DIAG can show both fixed and
I
2
C-bus selectable information.
