Unpowered Mode

If you connect battery voltage to the application circuit, the voltage at the VS pin increases
according to the block capacitor (see

Figure 5-1 on page 19

). After VS is higher than the VS

undervoltage threshold VS

th

, the IC mode changes from Unpowered Mode to Fail-safe Mode.

The VCC output voltage reaches its nominal value after t

VCC

. This time, t

VCC

, depends on the

VCC capacitor and the load.

The NRES is low for the reset time delay t

reset

. During this time, t

reset

, no mode change is

possible.

IF VS drops below VS

th

, then the IC switches to Unpowered Mode. The behavior of VCC, NRES

and LIN is shown in

Figure 4-8

. The watchdog needs to be triggered.

High-speed Mode

If SP_MODE pin is high and the IC is in Normal Mode, the slew rate control is switched off. The
slope time of the LIN falling edge is t

S_Fall

< 2 µs. The slope time of the LIN rising edge strongly

depends on the LIN capacitive and resistive load. To achieve a high baud rate it is recom-
mended to use a small resistor (500

Ω

) and a low capacitor. This allows very fast data

transmission up to 115 kBaud, e.g., for electronic control (ECU) tests and microcontroller pro-
gram or data download. In this mode superior EMC performance is not guaranteed.
