We are trying to use the PCA8886 in push button mode, after a few cycles 'hits' the outputs lock up active. Pulse mode works fine, but we really need push button mode - is there a fix? Perhaps a resistor up/down ? The datasheet says just tie 'type' to earth - but it locks up.
Hi Richard,
There are two sensors in PCA8886 and as a consequence both TYPE[1:2] pins need to be tied to GND to get both sensors working in push button mode.
To investigate more about what might be wrong, could you please post here your schematics and BOM?
Regards,
Tomas
