FUNCTIONAL DEVICE OPERATION
OPERATIONAL MODES
The 33981 has 2 operating modes: Sleep and Normal
depending on EN input.
NORMAL MODE
The 33981 will go to the normal operating mode when the
EN pin is logic [1]. The INHS and INLS commands will be
disabled tON after the EN transitions to logic [1] to enable the
charge of the bootstrap capacitor.
SLEEP MODE
Sleep mode is the state of the 33981 when the EN is
logic [0]. In this mode, OUT, the gate driver for the external
MOSFET, and all unused internal circuitry are off to minimize
current draw.

The OUT pin has an overcurrent high-detection level
called IOCH for maximum device protection. If at any time the
current reaches this level, OUT will stay OFF and the CSNS

In Figure 16, page 19, the OUT pin is short-circuited to 0 V.
When the current reaches IOCH, OUT is turned OFF within
tOCH owing to internal logic circuit.
For OUT, an over temperature fault condition results in
OUT turning OFF until the temperature falls below TSD. This
cycle will continue indefinitely until the offending load is
removed. Figure 12, page 16 and Figure 18, page 20 show an
over temperature on OUT.
OVERLOAD FAULT ON LOW SIDE
An over temperature fault on the low-side gate drive
results in OUT turning OFF and the GLS going to 0 V until the
temperature falls below TSD. This cycle will continue until the
