AS8520  
Preliminary Data Sheet - Detailed Description  
7 Detailed Description  
The AS8520 chip consists of a low drop-out regulator 5V/50mA, two low-side relay drivers, a resistive divider to monitor battery voltage and a LIN  
bus transceiver, which is a bi-directional bus interface for data transfer between LIN bus and the LIN protocol controller. Additionally integrated is  
a RESET unit with a power-on-reset delay and a programmable watchdog time. It also includes a watchdog time-out on LIN TX node to indicate  
if the microcontroller is stuck in a loop and the LIN bus remains in dominant time for more than the necessary time.  
7.1 Block Description  
The main blocks of the AS8520 are explained below.  
7.1.1 Voltage Regulator (LDO)  
The voltage regulator has three operating modes. The features of the operating modes are given below:  
Normal mode: Stability to be better ±0.15V over input range and temperature for load current up to 50mA. The LDO Output provides a volt-  
age of 5V (3.3V as OTP option).  
Standby mode: The Standby mode is a low quiescent current mode used in car applications that are always switched on. The load current  
in standby mode is 5mA. Quiescent current (no load) is less than 25µA typically at room temperature.  
Power down mode: The Power down or temporary shutdown of the regulator can be set by a register bit. This bit can be written through 4-  
wire MCU interface.  
The LDO takes the input from bandgap and scales it up to the required voltage. The LDO starts charging only after the POR-VSUP event occurs  
(RESET_VSUP_N switched from low to high). The LDO can be powered-down by a control signal (temporary shutdown register) for the  
temporary shutdown mode.  
7.1.2 Temperature Limiter  
Temperature limiter produces a power down when temperature exceeds 160ºC ±10%. It powers up and generates a reset when it returns to  
140ºC ±10% junction temperature. During thermal shut down, temperature sensor is supplied by VSUP. There is an option control bit provided to  
enable or disable this temperature monitoring circuit. During the temperature ramp-up phase, as soon as the temperature exceeds 140ºC ±10%,  
a warning signal is issued and is written into the diagnostic register, which can be read through the SPI interface.  
7.1.3 VSUP Undervoltage Reset  
VSUP undervoltage reset generates a reset RESET_VSUP_N, switched from low to high when VSUP ramps up above VSUVR_OFF. This is  
used to enable proper initialization of mode control and diagnostic registers. If VSUP < VSUVR_ON, then RESET_VSUP_N switches from high  
level to low level (active). This is considered to be the master reset and will have the highest priority over all other signals. As soon as VSUP <  
VSUVR_ON, the LDO, LIN Transceiver is completely shut off and system comes to a complete stop. AS8520 enters into the normal operating  
mode only after VSUP > VSUVR_OFF.  
7.1.3.1 VSUP Undervoltage in Normal Mode  
Supply Voltages below VSUVR_OFF and above VSUVR_ON do not influence the voltage regulator. The output voltage VCC follows VSUP.  
7.1.3.2 VSUP Undervoltage in Standby Mode / Sleep Mode  
No exit from the sleep mode or standby mode take place if the VSUP voltage drops down to VSUVR_OFF. If VSUP goes below VSUVR_ON,  
RESET_VSUP_N is active and resets the mode control and diagnostic register. The voltage regulator, LIN Transceiver modules are turned off. If  
VSUP rises again above VSUVR_OFF, RESET_VSUP_N is switched from low to high. The system enters normal mode where LIN Transceiver  
and LDO are switched on.  
7.1.3.3 VSUP Undervoltage in Low Slew Mode  
The behavior of AS8520 at low VSUP voltages is equal to the sleep mode. The low slew mode (set by control register through serial interface as  
an option) will be cancelled, if VSUP drops below VSUVR_ON in this mode. The AS8520 enters the normal mode, if VSUP rises again above  
VSUVR_OFF.  
7.1.4 RESET  
Reset generates an external RESET signal to reset the microcontroller and all other external circuits. The reset functionality is illustrated in  
Figure 4. Reset consists of a digital buffer at the output. RESET signal can be affected by RESET_VCC_N (which is the under-voltage reset on  
VCC) and Window watchdog output. All those conditions which cause a drop in the VCC voltage will be detected from the low voltage reset unit,  
which in-turn generates a reset signal. States like Temporary shut-down, Over-temperature monitor will influence the RESET output through  
RESET_VCC_N signal only.

7.1.5 VCC Undervoltage Reset  
The POR-VCC generates RESET_VCC_N signal as output which determines under-voltage reset of the output of the LDO. The rising edge of  
the VCC gives an under-voltage reset “off” and the falling edge of the VCC gives an under-voltage reset “on”. This under-voltage signal is used to  
control the RESET output. When VCC rises up Vuvr_off for a period greater than reset duration (tRes) then RESET_VCC_N switches from low  
level to high level and pin RESET is inactive (high). If VCC falls below Vuvr_on for a period greater than a predetermined delay (trr) then  
RESET_VCC_N switches from high level to low level and pin RESET is active (low). The RESET_VCC_N signal is used to initialize Window  
watchdog timer, TX time-out, Test control circuits, 4-wire SPI, and logic associated with SPI (everything other than the SPI control registers).  
VCC under-voltage reset threshold voltage level adjustment can be made by 2 bit OTP as explained in OTP interface.  
7.1.6 Window Watchdog (WWD)  
To keep the external microcontroller always in proper function state, a window watchdog circuit is implemented. The WWD trigger is generated  
by external MCU through SPI interface. If the window is missed, a reset on the RESET pin with certain reset time (tRes) is generated. The WWD  
function can be enabled or disabled by factory setting. The watchdog is started after the ASSP exits reset. Under normal working conditions,  
microcontroller gives a WWD trigger every time in the window period of WD_TSV (service time). If the trigger does not occur during WD_TSV or  
occurs too early during WD_TCL (non-service time), then RESET output is pulled low (active), which will reset the micro-controller. WWD circuit  
is turned on after the RESET pin goes back to high (inactive). If VCC < Vuvr_on, WWD circuit is switched off. When the WWD function is  
enabled, there is a 3-bit factory programming available to set the trigger window.

7.1.7 Resistive Divider  
The resistive divider acts as a battery voltage attenuator. The output of this resistive divider can be connected to an ADC for monitoring the  
battery voltage. The division ratio of resistive divider is 21 but can be set also to 481 as a factory programming option. Both divider options can  
be disabled in standby mode using the EN signal. Reverse polarity protection of VBAT pin is provided.  
7.1.8 HV Low Side Relay Driver Switches  
Two NMOS open drain relay driver devices provide over voltage protection. The Driver is disabled if the MCU software hangs up (watchdog reset  
or time out WD for LIN TX). The input to the drivers is given through SPI (Low-side driver data register). If over voltage occurs, the Relay driver  
turns off irrespective of the input. The driver stays turned off till the voltage returns back to the normal operating range. An optional control bit  
available in the Device configuration register, which can be used to switch off the drivers independently to save power. The relay drivers are  
disabled using the SPI.  
7.1.9 LIN Transceiver  
The transceiver provides short circuit limitation, hardware watchdog and over temperature shut down features. The TX watchdog timer is active  
when TX is pulled low (active). As soon as the TX watchdog timeout occurs, the LIN bus is released from dominant state to recessive state. The  
LIN transceiver has a pull-up resistor (for the slave node; extra resistor externally for the master node) to the VSUP. A diode protection is  
available to protect it from back supply from bus line.  
The LIN transmitter has the basic functionality of relaying the data from the micro-controller on to the LIN. The data on the LIN needs to have  
controlled slew to have reduced EMI. The receiver relays the data from the LIN to the micro-controller. This transmitter has optimized EMC  
performance across different loading conditions conforming to the LIN 2.1 standards. The wake-up detects a wake up event on the LIN.  
7.2 Operating Modes and States  
The AS8520 provides four main operating modes “normal”, “sleep/stand-by” (programmed by OTP), “temporary shutdown” and “thermal  
shutdown”. The LIN transceiver can be programmed to operate with lower slew in the normal mode. Refer to Table 14 for a detailed description  
on transition for each mode.  
7.2.1 Normal Mode  
This is the mode after the power-up. In normal mode, LDO, LIN Transceiver, Window Watchdog, Resistive divider and the line drivers are all  
turned on. All the blocks are completely functional. LDO is now capable of delivering maximum load current possible as per the device  
specifications. The LIN Transceiver is capable of sending the TX data from microcontroller to the LIN bus at a maximum rate of 20Kbps.  
Resistive divider is used to attenuate the battery voltage and relay drivers are used to drive the relay. EN signal is set to high and LIN, TX, RX  
pins can be driven into dominant (low) or recessive (high) states. If the junction temperature increases more than Totset, a warning flag is set in  
the diagnostic register, which can be read through the SPI interface.

AS8520  
Preliminary Data Sheet - Detailed Description  
7.2.2 Standby Mode  
Standby mode is a functional low-power mode where the LDO is switched into a low-power state with low drive capability and lower accuracy of  
the output voltage. LIN Transceiver is disabled. The LIN wake-up circuit and over-temperature monitor circuit is enabled. Window watchdog, TX  
timeout watchdog, Resistive divider, relay driver circuits are disabled. EN pin held low in this mode. TX pin is in recessive state (high). CS is  
pulled to VCC while SDI and SCLK outputs are pulled to VSS.  
7.2.3 Sleep Mode  
As a factory programming option on request the AS8520 offers as a replacement to the standby mode with sleep mode. Sleep mode is the most  
current saving mode. If EN is held low, the LDO, LIN Transceiver, the gate drivers, the resistive divider and the reset and window watchdog unit  
will be switched off. VCC is pulled down to zero. CS is low. The LIN wake-up circuit, oscillator and over-temperature monitor circuit is active. LIN  
bus is in recessive state (high). Only wake-up possible is through remote wake-up, through LIN pin, pulling it to dominant state for 100µs typical  
(low), can change the state of the system.  
7.2.4 Temporary Shutdown Mode  
In this mode, the VCC is pulled down and the LDO is powered down. This mode is introduced to interface with other components which do not  
have a pin for the reset functionality. This provides an alternative way to reset those components interfacing with AS8520. This mode is default  
disabled but can be enabled by an OTP option. In this mode, all internal modules supplied by the LDO are disabled. Only the oscillator, control  
registers are enabled. The VCC output can be temporarily switched off and pulled to VSS. EN signal, RX, TX is pulled low and LIN Transceiver  
along with the LIN wake-up circuit is powered down. No remote wake-up functionality is possible. LIN bus enters into recessive state. The  
system goes out of this mode to normal mode after the time-out of an internal counter delay (Tshd). Normal mode to temporary shutdown  
transition will be controller by register bit in configuration register.  
7.2.5 Thermal Shutdown State  
If the junction temperature TJ is higher than Tsd, the AS8520 will be switched into the thermal shutdown mode. The transceiver is completely  
disabled. No wake-up functionality is available. Window watchdog, TX timeout watchdog and LDO are completely turned off. Only the over-  
temperature monitor would be working. As soon as the temperature returns back to Tret, the system enters normal mode. For more information  
on transition, see Table 14.

Preliminary Data Sheet - Application Information  
8 Application Information  
8.1 Initialization  
When the power supply is switched on, if VSUP > VSUVR_OFF, RESET_VSUP_N becomes inactive (high). After this, the voltage regulator  
starts with a default LDO output setting of 3.3V and Vuvr_off setting of 2.75V. If VCC > Vuvr_off (2.75V), active-low PORN_2_OTP is generated.  
The rising edge of PORN_2_OTP loads contents of fuse onto the OTP latch after load access time TLoad. LOAD_OTP_IN_PREREG signal loads  
contents of OTP latch onto the pre-regulator domain register. This register gives actual settings of LDO, Vuvr_off and Reset Timeout period TRes  
.
This is done because the OTP block is powered by the VCC. If VCC > Vuvr_off (phase 2), Reset timeout is restarted. RESET signal is de-  
asserted after Reset Timeout period TRes (phase 2) and then device enters into normal mode. The circuit also needs to initialize correctly for very  
slow ramp rates on VSUP (of the order of 0.5V/min).

8.2 Wake-Up  
If the regulator is put into sleep/standby mode, it can be woken up with the BUS interface. A transition on the BUS (high to low) with a minimum  
predefined low time (twake) puts the regulator into normal mode.  
8.3 Over-Temperature Shutdown  
If the junction temperature increases beyond Tsd the over-temperature recognition will be activated and the regulator voltage will be switched off.  
The VCC voltage drops down, the reset state is entered and the bus transceiver is switched off (recessive state). After TJ falls below Tret, the  
AS8520 will be initialized again. This initialization starts independently from the voltage levels on EN and BUS. Within the thermal shutdown  
mode, the transceiver cannot switch to the normal mode either with local or with remote wake-up. The operation of the AS8520 is possible  
between TJ (125ºC) and the switch off temperature Tsd, but small parameter differences can appear. After over-temperature switch-off, the IC  
initializes as explained in Initialization on page 20. The low slew mode for LIN Transceiver has to be selected again on re-initialization, if  
necessary.  
8.4 LIN BUS Transceiver  
The AS8520 has an integrated bi-directional bus interface device for data transfer between LIN bus and the LIN protocol controller. The  
transceiver consists of a driver with slew rate control, wave shaping and current limitation and a receiver with high voltage comparator followed  
by a de-bouncing unit.  
8.4.1 Transmit Mode  
During transmission the data at the pin TX will be transferred to the BUS driver to generate a bus signal. To minimize the electromagnetic  
emission of the bus line, the BUS driver has an integrated slew rate control and wave shaping unit.  
Transmitting will be interrupted in the following cases:  
Sleep mode  
Thermal Shutdown active  
Master Reset (VSUP < Vsuvr_on)  
The recessive BUS level is generated from the integrated 30k pull up resistor in serial with an active diode This diode prevents the reverse  
current of VBUS during differential voltage between VSUP and BUS (VBUS>VSUP). No additional termination resistor is necessary to use the  
AS8520 in LIN slave nodes. If this IC is used for LIN master nodes it is necessary that the BUS pin is terminated via an external 1kΩ resistor in  
series with a diode to VBAT.  
8.4.2 Receive Mode  
The data signals from the BUS pin will be transferred continuously to the pin RX. Short spikes on the bus signal are suppressed by the  
implemented de-bouncing circuit. Including all tolerances the LIN specific receive threshold values of 0.4*VSUP and 0.6*VSUP will be securely  
observed.

8.5.1 Input TX  
The 5V input TX controls directly the BUS level. LIN Transmitter acts like a slew-controlled level shifter. A dominant state (low) on TX leads to the  
LIN bus being pulled low (dominant state) too. The TX pin has an internal active pull up connected to VCC. This guarantees that an open TX pin  
generates a recessive BUS level.

8.6 MODE Input EN  
The AS8520 is switched from normal mode to the standby/sleep mode with a falling edge on EN and keeping TX high for TSTNDY_trigger time.  
Device is switched from standby mode to normal mode with a rising edge at the EN pin. The mode change for AS8520 with a falling edge at EN  
can be done independently from the state of the bus transceiver. Device enters into Serial port mode (for factory test purpose only) by forcing EN  
low and driving TX high to low within Ttx_SP_trigger time after EN forced to low.  
This ensures the direct control of device to enter into Standby/Sleep mode by microcontroller using EN pin.

Preliminary Data Sheet - Application Information  
8.7 Serial Port Interface  
The 4-wire interface is essentially used to control the relay driver, to shutdown LDO temporarily and to trigger the window watchdog. It is also  
used to access test mode and read out diagnostic information for the AS8520. The description of this interface and the protocol is explained  
below. Information on block status and errors can be displayed by diagnosis registers.  
8.7.1 Device Configuration using 4-Wire Serial Port  
The SPI interface can be used as interface between the AS8520 and an external microcontroller to configure the device and access the status  
information. The interface is a slave and then only the microcontroller can start the communication. The SPI protocol is very simple and the  
length of each frame is an integer multiple of byte except when a transmission is started. Basically each frame has 1 command bit, 5 address/  
configuration bits, 1 or more data bytes. SPI clock polarity settings depend on the value of the SCLK on the CS falling edge. This setting is done  
on each start of the SPI transaction. During the transaction, the SPI clock polarity will be fixed to the settings done. On the CS falling edge, the  
values on SCLK signal decide setting of the active SPI clock edge for data transfer. (see table below)

8.7.1.1 SPI Frame  
A frame is formed by a first byte for command and address/configuration and a following bit stream that can be formed by an integer number of  
bytes. Command is coded on the 1 first bit, while address is given on LSB 5 bits. (see table below)

READ  
If the command is read or write, one or more bytes follow. When the micro-controller sends more bytes (keeping CS LOW and SCLK toggling),  
the SPI interface increments the address of the previous data byte and writes/reads data to/from consecutive addresses.  
8.7.1.2 Write Command  
For Write command C0 = 0.  
After the command code C0 and two reserved bits, the address of register to be written has to be provided from the MSB to the LSB. Then one  
or more data bytes can be transferred, always from the MSB to the LSB. For each data byte following the first one, used address is the  
incremented value of the previously written address. Each bit of the frame has to be driven by the SPI master on the SPI clock transfer edge and  
the SPI slave on the next SPI clock edge samples it. These edges are selected as per Table 17. The following figures illustrate two examples of  
write command (without and with address self-increment.)

8.7.1.3 Read Command  
For Read command C0 = 1.  
After the command code C0 and two reserved bits, the address of register to be read has to be provided from the MSB to the LSB. Then one or  
more data bytes can be transferred from the SPI slave to the master, always from the MSB to the LSB. To transfer more bytes from consecutive  
addresses, SPI master has to keep active the SPI CS signal and the SPI clock as long as it desires to read data from the slave. Each bit of the  
command and address sections of the frame have to be driven by the SPI master on the SPI clock transfer edge and the SPI slave on the next  
SPI clock edge samples it. Each bit of the data section of the frame has to be driven by the SPI slave on the SPI clock transfer edge and the SPI  
master on the next SPI clock edge samples it. These edges are selected as per Table 17. The following figures illustrate two examples of read  
command (without and with address self-increment.)
