PRODUCTION DATA
The device provides an option to either use SMBus programmed registers (software) to control the outputs or by using the hardware OE# pins. In case of using software to control the outputs, the hardware OE# pins can be left floating as each of these pins have a pulldown to ground. Refer to the Register Maps section for more information on programming the register.
When the user wants to control the outputs with the hardware OE# pins, the user can do so for example by connecting these pins to a GPIO controller and follow the Pin Configuration and Functions section to set the outputs to HIGH/LOW. The bits OUT_EN_CLK7 to OUT_EN_CLK0 used to control the outputs are shown in registers OECR1 field descriptions. These register bits are set to 1 by default to verify that the outputs are "software enabled" and the state is therefore set by hardware OE# pins.
