SNVSCN9A September 2024 – December 2024 TPS3423 , TPS3424
PRODUCTION DATA
KILL pin is used as a control input from the host for the latched RESET version of push-button device. A short press on PB pin asserts the RESET output of push-button in latched version. The host pulls KILL high once all the expected action from short press is completed like power tree start-up. The device ignores the KILL input for tSINT + tKILL after short press time (tSP), this allows sufficient time for host to monitor the expected tasks for short press.
The host doesn't pull KILL high if short press doesn't perform all expected actions and the push-button device de-asserts RESET output when KILL is low after the debounce time as shown in Figure 6-5. Host can pull KILL low at any time to de-assert RESET without any long press on PB pin. KILL input is ignored for non-latched RESET configuration. Connect KILL pin to VDD if KILL feature is not used.
