Hello experts in the group,
We are using TPL7407L to drive loads. My question is on the low side of the chip. In the spec of TPL7407, it says "TPL7407L input interface is specified for standard 1.8 V through 5 V CMOS logic interface and can tolerate up to 30 V.". Does this mean that I can use 24V or 30V to drive the input directly in my applications?
If not, how can I use resistors to drop sown the voltage for the inputs? I tried this but it appeared that any resistor I put between the 24V signal and the TPL7407L input caused a tortured input signal form.
Can anyone give me some quick direction on this? It will be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Lei
