PRODUCTION DATA.
The RESET output structure of the LP3470A is an open-drain N-channel MOSFET switch. A pull-up resistor (Rpull-up) must be connected to VCC to keep the output logic high when RESET is not asserted.
Connect the pull-up resistor to the desired pull-up voltage source and RESET can be pulled up to any voltage up to 10 V independent of the VCC voltage. To ensure proper voltage levels, give some consideration when choosing the pull-up resistor values. Rpull-up must be large enough to limit the current through the output within the recommended operating conditions. The pull-up resistor value determines the actual VOL, the output capacitive loading, and the output leakage current (ILKG(OD)). A typical pull-up resistor value of 20 kΩ is sufficient in most applications.
