Device functional state

Figure 6. Device functional states

4.1.1

Reset and Sleep states

Reset state: when stand-by logic is reset, all registers on device are reset. The battery voltage is still under

threshold.

From here, as soon as the POR_STBY goes high the Stby Logic gets its supply power and the Sleep state is

reached.

4.1.1.1

Operations in Reset state

No operation is possible in Reset state

Sleep state:

This state is reached:

•

coming from Reset state on POR_STBY rising

•

from other states in case a Go2SLP cmd is sent by uP or no communication is received for t > t_SLEEP

•

from Init State in case the device address is still 0b0000 after t > t_SHUT

•

from Cyclic_Wup state once the Cyclic Wup job is done and a silent balancing is not to be resumed.

In this state the device is sensitive to External Sources in order to wake up the Main Logic. External sources are:

ISO lines, Fault line, SPI_CS (SPI_CLK) pins, also a GPIO pin for “Master” units.

In this state a slow oscillator is working allowing the device to wake itself up every t = tCYCLIC_SLEEP +

tCYCLIC_WUP and move to Cyclic Wup state.
