Inductive sensor interface

The interface handles signals coming from inductive sensors or Hall Effect sensors. The interface feeds the digital

signal to microcontroller that extracts flying wheel rotational position, angular speed and acceleration.

VRS interface

VRS interface runs either in normal mode to convert the input differential voltage or in diagnostic mode to

detect eventual short to ground, short to battery or open condition at sensor pins. In order to guarantee a better

coverage, VRSP pin can be routed on AOX pin. Figure 32. VRS interface block diagram shows the main parts

inside VRS block and, in red, the internal connection in case of active diagnostic mode.

GADG1101180948PS

Operating mode is defined in VRS register through VRS_EN_DIAG bit: when VRS_EN_DIAG=0, VRS block is set

in normal mode; when VRS_EN_DIAG=1 the VRS diagnosis mode is activated.

VRSP or VRSN pins are equipped with a clamp at VclampH and VclampL.

In case of activation of clamp both on VRSP and VRSN, it is guaranteed by design that VRSP voltage is higher

than VRSN.
