...
important note from the above table, no matter the valid input reference level, the output would only be enabled if the eload was set at less than 1.1A. not sure why → will ask josh
before i left for the day, I tried to see if the priority system would work → for some reason the supply on the DCDC input did not ever seem to allow output no matter the condition. I switched the supply as well and it still wouldnt allow output.
turns out for the 1.1A limit i forgot that i set the power supply limit to 1A LOL so yeah of course when I increased that, the output was enabled for higher currents
back to the enabling input problem, I notice that the valid1 pin is always low and the other valid pins are always high no matter the configuration of the input supplies → a low valid pin means the presence of a supply should be detected and allowed to turn on output in the case of priority
turns out there is a short to ground on the VALID1 pin, so im gonna check all the solder
