TPS1HB16-Q1: ENABLE and LATCH

Part Number: TPS1HB16-Q1

Hi Timothy,

Thank you for the quick reply and for pointing out the increased current consumption.

One other question we have is if it would be okay to tie ENABLE and LATCH together?

Thank you,

Neal

  • Hello Neal,

    You should be able to connect ENABLE and LATCH together- although there is a caveaut. The LATCH pin is used to reset the device when an over current event occurs (such as a short-to-ground). 

    If you pull the pin high and are unable to control it from your MCU you cannot "reset" the switch in case of a fault condition.
