INTRODUCTION
The A89503 demo board is designed to aid system designers with evaluating the operation and performance of Allegro’s
A89503 48V Safety Automotive, Half-Bridge MOSFET Driver. This application note describes the components of the
A89503 Demo Board and explains how it can be used to achieve normal operation. To simplify understanding, components
of the demo board are categorized into different topics.

POWER SUPPLIES
Three power supplies must be available on the board for full opera-
tion. These are the VBB, VBRG, and VL power supplies. In each
case, there is a ground terminal next to the supply terminal. This
ground terminal is connected to the common ground plane.
VBB Supply
This terminal provides the main power to the A89503. There are
two connection options for energizing VBB and VBRG:
1. Common VBB, VBRG: Connect power to X7 and t J8 (no
external power connection to X1).
2. Independent VBB, VBRG: Remove J8 and connect separate
power supplies to X1 and X7.
The diode D1 protects the VBB pin from negative transients by
ensuring unidirectional current flow. This diode can be bypassed
by engaging jumper J1.
VBRG Supply
The voltage bias on the half bridge is supplied by this terminal. As
discussed in the previous section, J8 interconnects VBRG to VBB.
VL Supply
This supply provides power to the control logic (HS and LSn),
the ENABLE pin, and the DIAG status LED (LED3). Because
this is a logic supply, its maximum voltage is dependent on the
product variant (3.3 V or 5 V).
VL may be generated from VREG via linear regulator U2 (J2 in
position U2) or a suitable external supply may be connected via
connector X4 (J2 in position X4).
The linear regulator U2 is fitted on both the 5 V and 3.3 V boards.
Although this is a 5 V regulator, the A89503-3 logic inputs are
tolerant to this voltage level, will operate correctly, and will not
suffer any damage. However, care should be taken to ensure that
any 3V3 devices connected to ENABLE, HS, or LS will not suf-
fer damage; therefore, 1K buffer resistors are placed in series to
provide a level of protection to devices connected to X3.
COMMUNICATION PORTS
Communication to the microcontroller is accomplished via a
USB micro-B header or an IDC 26-way ribbon header.
The default method of communication is the USB micro-B con-
nection. This header is connected to an on-board FTDi FT232RL
device (U4) that translates the USB signals to serial communica-
tion logic. The logic levels can be set to either 3.3 V or 5 V using
jumper J14.
To switch from the default method of communication to SPI
communication, the R36–R39 resistors are removed, then the
SPI-compatible signals are connected to the X3 header pins 1, 3,
5, 7, 9, and 11.
SWITCHES
The DIL four-way switch actuator (S1) contains three active
switches—S1, S2, and S3. The operation of these switches is
described in Table 1.

Both the ENABLE a HS pins contain an internal pull-down resis-
tor so when they are left floating, they are pulled to logic low.
The LSn pin contains an internal pull-up resistor that pulls it to
logic high when it is left floating.

RESETn
The A89503 contains a RESETn input pin that allows the device
to be put into standby mode when it is pulled low. This pin has a
voltage rating up to the supply voltage, so it can be directly con-
nected to VBB via R26. This 470 kΩ resistor limits the current
flowing into RESETn. The jumper J11 is in series with RESETn.
To put the device into sleep mode, jumper J11 is be removed.
When J11 is removed and left open, the internal pull-down resis-
tor pulls the pin to a logic low level.
To clear latched faults, RESETn can also be pulsed low for the
reset pulse width, tRST. To achieve this function, J11 is removed
and RESETn is connected directly to a logic controller.
OUTPUT TERMINALS
The half-bridge contains three output terminals; S, LSD, and
LSS. These terminals can be connected to various external
devices to produce different series-connected and external load
configurations. The jumper (J7), found between S and LSD,
allows the user to switch between operational configurations.
When J7 is engaged, the A89503 can be used in a complementary
half-bridge configuration allowing an external load to be con-
nected. Removal of J7 allows the device to drive independent
high-side and low-side MOSFETs for the series-connected load
configuration.
Current-carrying loads must be connected to the S and LSD ter-
minals instead of the J7 pins because they have a higher current-
carrying capability.
JUMPERS
The 10 different jumpers of the A89503 demo board are used as
follows:
J1 bypasses the VBB protection diode.
J2 selects the source of the logic supply. This can be either
from the on-board regulator (U2) or the external supply(X4).
J7 connects the source (S) of the high side MOSFET to the
drain (LSD) of the low side MOSFET. Removal of J7 allows
independent control of both MOSFETs.
J8 connects the VBB and VBRG supplies together.
J9 short-circuits the gate resistor of the high-side MOSFET to
allow it to operate in slew rate control mode. This jumper must
be removed from the board when operating with gate drive
control disabled.
J10 short-circuits the gate resistor of the low-side MOSFET to
allow it to operate in slew rate control mode. This jumper must
be removed from the board when operating with gate drive
control disabled.
J11 pulls RESETn to a high logic level when it is engaged.
RESETn is internally pulled to logic low if J11 is removed.
J12 connects VREG to the supply of the on-board regulator.
This jumper must be engaged if VS is being supplied from the
regulator.
J13 is left open in its default state. When this jumper is
engaged, it allows complementary control of HS and LSn.
J14 toggles between 3.3 V and 5 V logic when using the USB
micro-B communication port.
LEDS
The A89503 demo board contains three red LEDs. Each LED is
used as a different indicator:
LED1 is connected between VBB and ground through a
current source and is used to indicate when the VBB terminal
is energized.
LED2 is connected to VBRG and is used to indicate when
the bridge is energized. This LED may be considered as an
additional safety feature of the demo board because it remains
on until the DC link capacitor is discharged.
LED3 is connected to DIAG, and it turns on when DIAG goes
low. This LED, therefore, displays when the A89503 has a
fault in the diagnostic register.
