DRV81620-Q1: Out6 and Out7 parallel

Part Number: DRV81620-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi team,

My customer is using DRV81620-Q1 with OUT6 and OUT7 paralleled. The max output current is 500mA, which is lower than the overcurrent threshold 600mA. 

I pointed out that channel 6 and 7 cannot be configured to parallel operation, which may cause the two channels switch OFF asynchronously in short circuit. But customer thinks each channel has overcurrent protection. Do you see any risk of paralleling 6 and 7?

Best Regards

Grey
