I'm looking for a way to disable the power stages of the DRV8312 that does not involve the RESET pins.
Looking at the block diagram, the part monitors for undervoltage on the gate drivers and the VREG pin.
Overtemp can also trigger a shutdown as can overcurrent.
What would be the most elegant way of disabling the part? Are any of the reserved selections for the M1-3 pins doing this by any chance?
Alternatively could I drive the OC_ADJ pin high to fake an overcurrent event?
Thanks,
Klaus
