- Due to slope compensation of the current limit, ILIMIT changes with duty cycle - see Figure 16 on page 9.

- The logic input levels VIH and VIL allow for 1.8V supplied driving circuit (70%/30% of 1.8V)
- After this period, the first clock pulse is generated.
- A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal (referred to the VIHMIN of the
SCL signal) to bridge the undefined region of the falling edge of SCL.
- A fast-mode device can be used in a standard-mode system, but the requirement tSU:DAT = to 250ns must then
tSU:DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250ns before the SCL line is released.

The DCDC and the current source is disabled and the AS3644 is configured to draw minimum current. Figure 16. AS3644 internal circuit disabled by freq_switch_on (see page 15)=0. In this case pulseskip will be used.
www.austriamicrosystems.com/AS3644 1.2.2 11 - 23 AS3644 Datasheet - Detailed Description DCDC Overvoltage Protection In case of no or a broken LED at the pin LED_OUT and an enabled DCDC converter, the voltage on VOUT rises until it reaches VVOUTMAX (overvoltage condition) and the voltage across the current source does not reach regulation (VOUT-VLED < VILED_COMP). If this condition is detected, the DCDC converter is stopped, the current sources are dis- abled and the bit fault_ovp (see page 17) is set. DCDC Broken Coil Detection If the coil LDCDC is broken, the AS3644 is not powered by the pin SW connected to VOUT by the internal switch. Due to the protection diodes between SCL to VOUT and SDA to VOUT, the AS3644 can be powered through these diodes. The AS3644 detects this error condition by comparing the voltage on SCL and VOUT. If the voltage on VOUT is lower compared to the voltage on SCL, the AS3644 will ignore any I2C write commands. Therefore the application can simply detect this condition. Note: Due to the broken coil detection, the high levels of SDA and SCL should be always below the supply voltage. LED Short Circuit Protection After the startup of the DCDC converter, the voltage on LED_OUT is continuously monitored and compared against VLEDSHORT. If the voltage stays below VLEDSHORT, the DCDC is stopped (as a shorted LED is assumed), the current sources are disabled and the bit fault_led_short (see page 17) is set. Overtemperature Protection The junction temperature of the AS3644 is continuously monitored. If the temperature exceeds TOVTEMP, the DCDC is stopped, the current sources are disabled and the bit fault_overtemp (see page 17) is set. The driver cannot be re- enabled unless the junction temperature drops below TOVTEMP-TOVTEMPHYST. Flash Timer The duration of the flash is defined by the register flash_timer (see page 16). After the timer expires, the DCDC is stopped and the flash current source (on pin LED_OUT) is disabled. Supply undervoltage Protection If the voltage on the pin VOUT (=battery voltage) is or falls below VUVLO, the AS3644 is kept in shutdown state and in all registers are set to their default state. Note: During operation of the DCDC converter, the supply undervoltage protection will still monitor the DCDC output voltage only. Therefore the supply undervoltage protection will only monitor the battery voltage if the DCDC converter is switched off and the output capacitor is discharged down to the supply voltage. Wakeup Circuit - Power off detection In flash, assist light and indicator mode, if SCL and SDA are L for more than tTIMEOUT, shutdown mode is automatically entered. This feature automatically detects a power-off of the controlling circuit driving SCL and SDA. I2C Serial Data Bus The AS3644 supports the I2C bus protocol. A device that sends data onto the bus is defined as a transmitter and a device receiving data as a receiver. The device that controls the message is called a master. The devices that are controlled by the master are referred to as slaves. A master device that generates the serial clock (SCL), controls the bus access, and generates the START and STOP conditions must control the bus. The AS3644 operates as a slave on the I2C bus. Within the bus specifications a standard mode (100kHz maximum clock rate) and a fast mode (400kHz maximum clock rate) are defined. The AS3644 works in both modes. Connections to the bus are made through the open-drain I/O lines SDA and SCL. The following bus protocol has been defined (Figure 19): Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy. During data transfer, the data line must remain stable whenever the clock line is HIGH. Changes in the data line while the clock line is HIGH are interpreted as control signals. Accordingly, the following bus conditions have been defined: ams AG Technical content still valid
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH. A change in the state of the data line, from HIGH to LOW, while the clock is HIGH, defines a START condition. A change in the state of the data line, from LOW to HIGH, while the clock line is HIGH, defines the STOP condition. the HIGH period of the clock signal. The data on the line must be changed during the LOW period of the clock signal. There is one clock pulse per bit of data. information is transferred byte-wise and each receiver acknowledges with a ninth bit. master device must generate an extra clock pulse that is associated with this acknowledge bit. enable the master to generate the STOP condition.
