HV301/HV311
Application Information, cont’d.
When the details of the load ENABLE circuitry is not known,
using an optocoupler always provides a safe solution
(Application Circuit 4).
Filtering Voltage Spikes on Input Supply
In some systems over voltage spikes of very short duration may
exist. For these systems a small capacitor may be added from
the OV pin to the VEE pin to filter the voltage spikes (Application
Circuit 5).
