4.5 Fail-safe Mode
The device automatically switches to Fail-safe Mode at system power-up. The voltage regulator
is switched on (V
CC
= 3.3V/5V/2%/50 mA) (see Figure 5-1 on page 19). The NRES output
switches to low for t
res
= 4 ms and gives a reset to the microcontroller. LIN communication is
switched off. The IC stays in this mode until EN is switched to high. The IC then changes to Nor-
mal Mode. A power down of V
Batt
(V
S
<VS
thU
) during Silent or Sleep Mode switches the IC into
Fail-safe Mode after power up. A low at NRES switches into Fail-safe Mode directly. During
Fail-safe Mode, the TXD pin is an output and signals the fail-safe source. The watchdog is
switched on.
The LIN SBC can operate in different Modes, like Normal, Silent, or Sleep Mode. The functional-
ity of these modes is described in Table 4-2.
A wake-up event from either Silent or Sleep Mode will be signalled to the microcontroller using
the two pins RXD and TXD. The coding is shown in Table 4-3.
A wake-up event will lead the IC to the Fail-safe Mode.
