GKEY Function
The GKEY function is used to enable or disable the ECU via a powerless signal. If the voltage at
pin K15 is larger than 3V to 4.15V, the charge pump and the EVZ regulator (for correct EVZ
function, the K30 pin has to be connected to the battery) will start operating. If the K15 pin is
open, an internal pull-down resistor of approximately 220 k
Ω
discharges the pin. A logical con-
nection between the voltage at the K15 pin, a serial-interface-driven latch command, and the
K30 voltage determines the EVZ Enable signal. In order to achieve the Switch Function of the
GKEY function, a transformer has to be used.
