4.3.7 Enable and Soft-Start Voltage Monitoring (TP17 and TP18)

The TPS40345EVM-353 provides a test point and local ground for measuring the enable and soft-start voltage. TP17 and TP18 or JP2 can be used to provide an external enable signal. Due to the nature of the soft-start function, the external signal must be open-collector or open-drain without pullup.
