This resistor can be shared amongst several different

HSD. Please note that the value of this resistor should be

sum of the maximum on-state currents of the different

devices.

Please note that if the microprocessor ground is not

If the calculated power dissipation leads to a large

resistor or several devices have to share the same

resistor then the ST suggests to utilize Solution 2 (see

below).

This small signal diode can be safely shared amongst

several different HSD. Also in this case, the presence of

the ground network will produce a shift (

≅600mV) in the

ground. This shift will not vary if more than one HSD
