MCF8316AEVM: nFAULT connection for MCF8316A

Part Number: MCF8316AEVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MCF8316A

Dear Team,

As per the application circuit mentioned in the datasheet of the MCF8316A, the nFAULT pin should be pulled up using 5.1kOhm resistor.

But in the Evaluation Board schematics, this resistor is not connected.

   

As per our requirement, we want to have a LED for fault detection. Is it mandatory to have the pull-up resistor in parallel to the LED connection?

Thanks and Regards,

Sujeesh V
