Sorry, not 100% sure what you mean by tag? Do I just need to move the Link: entry
to be above my Sign-off? Or is there something else? Thanks!

Ugh, copy/paste is hard! I will fix :).

Makes sense, will do.

Should not need any extra delay as both pulse high/low functions have the worst case
450ns delay after the register write. It was working well on my test cards.

Will do, thanks!
