Enable (EN) Pin

The PCA9306H device is a double-pole, single-throw switch in which the gate of the transistors is controlled by the voltage on the EN pin. In Figure 8-1, the PCA9306H device is always enabled when power is applied to VREF2. In Figure 8-2, the device is enabled when a control signal from a processor is in a logic-high state.
