Product details
Overview
MC33287DWR2 from Freescale Semiconductor is an automotive-grade contact monitoring and dual low-side protected driver IC. It interfaces switch contacts (to battery or ground) with a microcontroller, featuring eight 40 V-rated sense inputs with ratiometric thresholds and two current-limited (535 mA typ.) low-side drivers internally clamped to 50 V, used in vehicle body control modules for load supervision and fault diagnostics.
For engineers reviewing the MC33287DWR2 datasheet, MC33287DWR2 pinout, MC33287DWR2 application, or MC33287DWR2 equivalent, key selection criteria include high-voltage input sensing capability, integrated thermal/overcurrent protection per driver, multiplexed diagnostic reporting via OUT1, and compatibility with 5 V microcontroller logic levels under extended supply conditions (VDD1 = 5.0–18 V).
Technical Context
The MC33287DWR2 integrates an 8-to-1 analog multiplexer with address decoding (AD0–AD2) to route IN0–IN6 or internal fault signals (DIAGD1/DIAGD2) to OUT1, while IN7 connects directly to OUT7. Its dual low-side drivers (OUTD1/OUTD2) use complementary command logic: CD1 active-low and CD2 active-high, each with independent overtemperature shutdown and voltage-based fault detection (VFAULT = 2.0–3.5 V).
Input sensing operates ratiometrically to VDD1, supporting both switch-to-battery and switch-to-ground configurations. Standby current is 55 µA (typ.), and dynamic response includes tON = 1.3 µs (typ.) and tFALL = 1.0 µs (typ.), enabling fast contact state capture in automotive wake-up and status polling systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the sense inputs on the MC33287DWR2?
The MC33287DWR2 sense inputs (IN0–IN7) are rated for up to 40 V absolute maximum, with input clamp voltage specified at 17–23 V (at I = 100 µA). This rating allows direct connection to 12 V and 24 V automotive battery rails without external voltage dividers, provided a series resistor ≥25 kΩ is used per input per datasheet Note 1.
How does the MC33287DWR2 report fault conditions from its low-side drivers?
The MC33287DWR2 reports driver faults via two dedicated open-drain diagnostic outputs: DIAGD1 and DIAGD2. These signals reflect overload (short-to-ground or open-load) and overtemperature events. They are routed internally to the 8-to-1 multiplexer and appear on OUT1 when AD2–AD0 = 111, enabling MCU readback using a single ADC or comparator input - no additional GPIOs required for fault monitoring.
Can the MC33287DWR2 operate with a 5 V microcontroller logic supply?
Yes, the MC33287DWR2 supports 5 V microcontroller interfacing: VDD2 operates from 4.75–5.25 V (full specification), and all logic-compatible outputs (OUT1, OUT7, DIAGD1/DIAGD2) swing 0–6 V, matching standard TTL/CMOS thresholds. Inputs AD0–AD2 and CD1/CD2 accept VIH = 8×VDD2 (≥40 V) and VIL ≤ 4×VDD2 (≤20 V), ensuring noise-immune operation even with 5 V MCU I/O.
What is the purpose of the AD0–AD2 pins on the MC33287DWR2?
The AD0–AD2 pins on the MC33287DWR2 serve as a 3-bit binary address decoder for the internal 8-to-1 analog multiplexer. They determine which signal - IN0 through IN6, or DIAGD1/DIAGD2 - is routed to the OUT1 output pin. This allows a single MCU input to sequentially sample all eight monitored switch states and two driver fault signals without requiring additional ADC channels or GPIOs.
Does the MC33287DWR2 support both switch-to-battery and switch-to-ground configurations?
Yes, the MC33287DWR2 supports both configurations: each of the eight sense inputs (IN0–IN7) can monitor switches connected either between VBAT and the input pin (switch-to-battery) or between the input pin and GND (switch-to-ground). The input threshold is ratiometric to VDD1, ensuring consistent detection across varying battery voltages - a critical feature for reliable operation in automotive start-stop and load-dump conditions.
