External pull-up resistors are optional. Only needed if a pull-up value lower than 10 k

Ω is desired.

2.1.1

Driver requirements

The ST2329I may be driven by an open drain or totem pole driver and the nature of the

device output is “open drain”. It must not be used to drive a pull-down resistor as the

impedance of the output at HIGH state depends on the pull-up resistor placed at the I/Os.

that the driver is able to sink the required amount of current. For example, if the settings are

at least (5.5 V / 10 k

2.1.2

Load driving capability

To support the open drain system, the one-shot transistor is turned on only during high

transition at the output side. When it drives a high state, after the one-shot transistor turned

off, only the pull-up resistor is able to maintain the state. In this case, the resistive load is not

recommended.

2.1.3

Power-off feature

In some applications where it might be required to turn off one of the power supplies

causes, and the I/Os are in a high impedance state in this mode.
