We are trying to implement the hot swap controller to act as a current limiting chip (0.9A max). We are inputting 5.2v to one of the V_in pins and the EN/UVLO pin on the chip, yet we see no output power. We only have one power going into one V_in pin, and one trace coming out of a single V_out pin.
Our main concern is with the thermal ground pad in the center of the chip. We left this floating, not connected to ground.
We have also left pads 2,3,7,9,13,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23 floating
We have pads 4,5,11,12,14 connected to GND
24 as power out
10 is connected to a capacitor to ground
8 is connected to 2 resistors in series to ground
1 and 6 are connected to the input power from a capacitor
Based on this configuration, we have no power coming from the 24 power out pad. Is there any insight in why this may be?
