8.3.8 Enable, Undervoltage Lockout (EN/UVLO)

The LM516x contains a dual-level EN/UVLO circuit. When the EN/UVLO voltage is below 0.45 V (typical), the converter is in a low-current shutdown mode and the input quiescent current (IQ) is dropped down to 3 µA. When the voltage is greater than 1.1 V but less than 1.5 V (typical), the converter is in standby mode. In standby mode, the internal bias regulator is active while the control circuit is disabled. When the voltage exceeds the rising threshold of 1.5 V (typical), normal operation begins. Install a resistor divider from VIN to GND to set the minimum operating voltage of the regulator. If the user wishes to implement an input voltage UVLO, refer to Figure 8-2, Equation 3, and Equation 4 for details. Typically, the user will choose a value for RUV1 and calculate the value of RUV2 using Equation 3 based on a desired VON. Reasonable values for RUV1 are in the 1-MΩ range. Equation 4 is then used to calculate the resulting VOFF. VON and VOFF are the input voltages where the device will turn on and off, respectively.

Equation 3. RUV2=RUV1∙VEN(R)VON-VEN(R)
Equation 4. VOFF=VEN(F)∙1+RUV1RUV2

If input UVLO is not required, the user can either drive EN/UVLO as an enable input driven by a logic signal or connect it directly to VIN. If EN/UVLO is directly connected to VIN, the regulator begins switching as soon as the internal bias rails are active; about 4.5 V at VIN.
