General description

The PT2001 is a SMARTMOS programmable gate driver IC for solenoid control in

automotive application. The typical application is engine control. A wide range of system

configurations is also supported.

The general architecture comprises the combination of a set of programmable

microcores, integrated high-side (x5), and low-side (x7) predrivers for discrete logic level

MOSFETs, end of injection detection and means for diagnostics and protection against

external faults. Both battery voltage and booster voltage level high-side configurations

are supported. The chip communicates with the main controller through an SPI bus and a

flexible set of direct interface signals.

The main characteristics of this component are:

? The programmable architecture: the four dedicated microprocessor cores optimized to

control power MOSFETs with small latency time. Thus a high level of flexibility during

design and at runtime can be achieved.

? The high level of integration: all interfaces are designed to use as few external

components as possible.
