General description
Octal Low-Side Switch in Smart Power Technology (SPT) with a Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI) and eight open drain DMOS output stages. The TLE 6236 G is protected by
embedded protection functions and designed for automotive and industrial applications. The output
stages are controlled via an SPI Interface. Additionally four channels can be controlled direct in parallel
for PWM applications. The open load detection (pull down sources) can be disabled via the OL/PRG
pin. Then the leakage current is reduced to 1µA (max.) to avoid e.g. the glowing of LEDs in off state.
Therefore the TLE 6236 G is particularly suitable for body control units, dash board illumination or engine management systems.
Output current rating so long as maximum junction temperature is not exceeded. At T
rent has to be calculated using R

Functional Description
The TLE 6236 G is an octal-low-side power switch which provides a serial peripheral interface
(SPI) to control the 8 power DMOS switches, as well as diagnostic feedback. The power transistors are protected against short to VBB, overload, overtemperature and against overvoltage
by an active zener clamp.
The diagnostic logic recognizes a fault condition which can be read out via the serial diagnostic output (SO).
Circuit Description
Output Stage Control
Each output is independently controlled by an output latch and a common reset line, which
disables all eight outputs. Serial data input (SI) is read on the falling edge of the serial clock. A
logic high input data bit turns the respective output channel ON, a logic low data bit turns it
OFF. CS must be low whilst shifting all the serial data into the device. A low-to-high transition
of CS transfers the serial data input bits to the output buffer.
Special conditions for Channel 1 to 4:
In addition to the serial control of the outputs it is possible to control channel 1 to channel 4
directly in parallel for PWM applications. These inputs are high active and ORed with the SPI
control bit. The parallel inputs are provided with internal pull down sources, to guarantee that
the channels are switched off when the inputs are not connected.
The table shows the OR-operation of the parallel inputs 1 ..4 and the corresponding SPI bits.

Power Transistor Protection Functions
1)
Each of the eight output stages has its own zener clamp, which causes a voltage limitation at
the power transistor when solenoid loads are switched off. The outputs are provided with a
current limitation set to a minimum of 500 mA. The continuous current for each channel is
200 mA (all channels ON).
Each output is protected by embedded protection functions. In the event of an overload or
short to supply, the current is internally limited and a fault bit is generated for each output individually (early warning). If this operation leads to an overtemperature condition, a second
protection level (about 170 °C) will change the output into a low duty cycle PWM (channel selective thermal shutdown with restart) to prevent critical chip temperatures.
SPI Signal Description
CS - Chip Select. The system microcontroller selects the TLE 6236 G by means of the CS
pin. Whenever the pin is in a logic low state, data can be transferred from the µC and vice
versa.
CS High to Low transition: - diagnostic status information is transferred from the
power
outputs into the shift register.
- serial input data can be clocked in from then on
- SO changes from high impedance state to logic high or low
state corresponding to the SO bits
CS Low to High transition: - transfer of SI bits from shift register into output buffers
- reset of diagnosis register
To avoid any false clocking the serial clock input pin SCLK should be logic low state during
high to low transition of
CS . When CS is in a logic high state, any signals at the SCLK and SI
pins are ignored and SO is forced into a high impedance state.
The device will react to the CS only if one correct SCLK signal has been sent.
SCLK - Serial Clock. The system clock pin clocks the internal shift register of the TLE 6236 G.
The serial input (SI) accepts data into the input shift register on the falling edge of SCLK while
the serial output (SO) shifts diagnostic information out of the shift register on the rising edge of
serial clock. It is essential that the SCLK pin is in a logic low state whenever chip select
CS
makes any transition.
SI - Serial Input. Serial data bits are shifted in at this pin, the most significant bit first. SI information is read in on the falling edge of SCLK. Input data is latched in the shift register and
then transferred to the control buffer of the output stages.
A logic high bit at this pin (within the data byte) will switch the corresponding output on.

The integrated protection functions prevent an IC destruction under fault conditions and may not be used in normal operation or perma-
nently
V2.1Page26.Aug. 2002
8
Datasheet TLE 6236 G
SO - Serial Output. Diagnostic data bits are shifted out serially at this pin, the most significant
bit first. SO is in a high impedance state until the CS pin goes to a logic low state. New diagnostic data will appear at the SO pin following the rising edge of SCLK.
RESET - Reset pin. If the reset pin is in a logic low state, it clears the SPI shift register and
switches all outputs OFF. An internal pull-up structure is provided on chip.
Diagnostics
FAULT - Fault pin. There is a general fault pin (open drain) which shows a high to low transi-
tion as soon as an error occurs for any one of the eight channels. This fault indication can be
used to generate a µC interrupt. Therefore a ‘diagnosis’ interrupt routine need only be called
after this fault indication. This saves processor time compared to a cyclic reading of the SO
information.
As soon as a fault occurs, the fault information is latched into the diagnosis register. Serial
data out pin (SO) is in a high impedance state when CS is high. If CS receives a LOW signal,
all diagnosis bits can be shifted out serially. The rising edge of CS will reset all error registers.

Table 1: Definition of diagnostic bits under parallel and serial control
Basic principle of fault detection:
SO Bit = SI Bit: Normal Function
SO Bit inverse to SI Bit : Fault Condition
The diagnostic bits DIAG0 to DIAG3 for channel 1 to 4 indicate a fault when the DIAG bit is
high during parallel control (IN1 .. IN4 = H; serial data bits 0 .. 3 = L). Note that the SPI serial
input (SI) bit overrides the ON state control from IN1 to IN4 regarding diagnostic information.
Compare DIAG Bit in line 3 (parallel ON only) with DIAG Bit in line 4 (serial and parallel ON)
under normal function.
Compare DIAG Bit in line 7 (parallel ON only) with DIAG Bit in line 8 (serial and parallel ON)
under fault condition.

Datasheet TLE 6236 G
SPI serial input (SI) bit overrides the parallel ON state control from IN1 to IN4
Vref is the threshold reference level for detecting an Open Load/Overload
The standard way of obtaining diagnostic information is as follows:
Clock in serial information into SI pin and wait approximately 200 µs to allow the outputs to
settle. Clock in the identical serial information once again - during this process the data coming out at SO contains the bit combinations representing the diagnosis conditions as described
in figure 1.
Based on the needs of the application, a software routine should be programmed into the micro controller to set the corrective action of each fault condition.
Open Load Program Pin (OL/PRG)
To detect open load/short to ground each channel has an internal pull down source (300 µA
typ.) which pulls the drain voltage under the detection threshold in case of an open load or
short to ground condition.
If the TLE 6236 G is used to drive LEDs this pull down current could causes a slight glowing of
the LED. To avoid this, the device is provided with a program pin, which enables or disables
this open load detection. The OL/PRG pin is internally pulled up, i.e. the open load detection is
enabled if the OL/PRG pin is not connected. To disable the open load detection this pin must
be pulled to GND, e.g with a micro controller port.
In this way the open load detection can be enabled (e.g during start up of the system or in a
diagnosis routine) and disabled (e.g. during normal operation to avoid LED glowing) by the µC.
If the open load detection is disabled, the leakage current is reduced to a maximum of 1µA.
