• The PC pin enables and disables the VTM.

When held below 2 V, the VTM will be disabled.

• PC pin outputs 5 V during normal operation. PC pin is equal to 2.5 V

• After successful start up and under no fault condition, PC can be used as

a 5 V regulated voltage source with a 2 mA maximum current.

• Module will shutdown when pulled low with an impedance

less than 400

Ω.

• In an array of VTMs, connect PC pin to synchronize start up.

• PC pin cannot sink current and will not disable other modules

during fault mode.
