DRV8701: High-Side FET short circuit protection

$

Part Number:DRV8701

Dear board,

do I understand the "Overccurrent Vds Monitor" right, that the function is also active on a short-circuit to ground after the high-Side active FET? Otherwise we would have to monitor the current on the VM side of the design. As the current Rsense only measures current which runs through the Low-Side FET too. If for example the cable to the motor is broken and has a short to ground the current flows throw the high side FET and back to the supply. So if the Fuse trips to late the active High-side FET can be damaged.

Thanks for your support
