DESCRIPTION
The car radio diagnostic processor is an interface
chip in BCD Technology intended for car radio appli-
cations. It is able to detect potential faults coming
from any misconnection in the car radio or in the har-
ness when installing the set.
The device is able to reveal any fault in the loud-
speaker lines and in the antenna and booster supply
lines, providing a proper output signal (I2C bus com-
patible) in order to disable the ICs under fault and/or
to alert the micro-controller by means of warning
messages.

WORKING PRINCIPLES
Turn-on diagnostic - CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4, CH5 -
Shorted load/open load detection
s
To detect a short across the load or an open
load, a subsonic current pulse is generated. The
information related to the status of the outputs is
measured and memorized at the top of the
current pulse (tm in fig.1). The current is
sourced by the positive pins (CH1+,...CH5+)
and it is sunk by the corresponding negative
pins (CH1-,...CH5-).
