7.3.7.1 Soft Start

The soft-start feature allows the converter to gradually reach the steady state output voltage, reducing the startup stress in the system. Soft start is triggered by any of the following conditions:

  • Appropriate voltage level is applied to the VIN pin of the device, releasing undervoltage lockout.
  • EN/UVLO voltage is sufficient to enter active mode while the voltage on VIN pin is at least VIN_R.
  • Recovery from shutdown due to overtemperature protection.

After soft start is triggered, the internal reference is slowly ramped up. Assuming the output voltage is initially 0 V, the reference is ramped to 90% of the target output voltage in tSS. During the soft-start time, the switching mode is set to AUTO mode. AUTO mode activates diode emulation for the low-side MOSFET, not allowing negative inductor current. This activation allows the output voltage to be prebiased, voltage already present on the output, during start-up without discharging the output capacitor. Figure 7-6 shows the difference between a non biased soft start and a prebiased soft start.
