Two general purpose inputs (GPI) can be configured as
programmable manual reset (MR), UV disable (UVDIS),
margin(MARG),WriteProtect(WP)orauxiliarycompara-
tor (AUXC) inputs. Three general purpose pins (GPIO)
can be configured for input or output operation. When
configured as an input, a GPIO pin can be mapped to any
other GPIO configured as output. The GPIO pins can also
be configured as ALERT or fault outputs. Faults can be
configured with programmable delay-on-release times.
Output type and polarity are also configurable.
