I'm having some issues with the TCA6408A regarding uncontrolled current consumption during startup. Please see schematic for connections. On startup we sometimes have a current to the part above 100 mA. This lasts until the microprocessor starts communicating with the part and then the current drops to the expected level. If we force the reset low the part draws the huge current continuely which i find very puzzling. The part is supplyied with +5VDC on both Vcc's. and the output ports are coupled to high impedant loads.
Hope you can help me because the startup current drawn is unacceptable in our product.
