STPIC6D595MTR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum frequency of the clock input?
  The maximum frequency of the clock input is 25 MHz, but it's recommended to operate at 10 MHz or lower for reliable operation.
• How do I handle the thermal shutdown feature?
  The thermal shutdown feature is enabled by default. To handle it, ensure good thermal design and heat dissipation, and consider using a thermal pad or heat sink if necessary.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range?
  The recommended operating voltage range is 3.0 V to 5.5 V, but the device can operate down to 2.7 V with reduced performance.
• How do I implement the output enable (OE) function?
  The OE pin is active-low, so connect it to GND to enable the outputs. You can also use an external resistor and capacitor to create a delay for the OE signal.
• What is the maximum current rating for the output pins?
  The maximum current rating for each output pin is 25 mA, but the total current should not exceed 100 mA for the entire device.
