8.2 PWOK (Power OK)
STATUS
Required
PWOK is a power OK signal and will be pulled HIGH by the power supply to indicate that all the outputs are within
the regulation limits of the power supply. When any output voltage falls below regulation limits or when AC power
has been removed for a time sufficiently long so that power supply operation is no longer guaranteed, PWOK will
be de-asserted to a LOW state. See Figure 5 for a representation of the timing characteristics of PWOK. The
start of the PWOK delay time shall be inhibited as long as any power supply output is in current limit.

Signal Type Open collector/drain output from power supply. Pull-up
