TPS2596: Disable and multiple devices

Part Number: TPS2596

Hello,

I plan to use multiple TPS259620DDA devices in my design. These are latching parts, and my understanding is that to unlatch I need to cycle the Enable pin. So, I have 2 questions.

1. What is the minimum time to drive the Enable pin low in order to unlatch before re-enabling the switch?

2. I'd like to control my multiple switches by a single logic signal, and also wire-OR the Fault pins to have a single fault indicator back to the host. However, the data sheet states that doing so will cause one of the devices experiencing a fault to disable all the other devices. Is this true? If so, can you recommend another similar device that allows such connection, yet does not disable all the devices?

Thank you,

Eric Bogomolny.
