Also, with regards to the TIC12400, would it be okay to run the VS pin from 24Vdc is we are only using a maximum current sink of 1mA per channel ??
In the data sheet it says that the max supply is 16Vdc….. but can handle a 40Vdc load dump. Is the 16Vdc a limit due to the potential power dissipation if you had all channels sourcing 15mA (we are only using a small amount of power at 1mA but have a high input voltage (24Vdc on Vs))
