8.2.2.6 Adjustable Undervoltage Lockout

The undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is adjusted using the external voltage divider network of RENT and RENB. The UVLO has a threshold for power up when the input voltage is rising. UVLO has another threshold for power down or brownouts when the input voltage is falling. For this example design, the supply is set to turn on and start switching once the input voltage increases above 6 V (UVLO start or enable). After the regulator starts switching, it continues to do so until the input voltage falls below 5.5 V (UVLO stop or disable). In this example, these start and stop voltages set by the EN resistor divider are selected to have more hysteresis than the internally fixed VIN UVLO. Equation 21 can be used to calculate the values for the upper resistor. For these equations to work, VSTART must be 1.1 × VSTOP due to the voltage hysteresis of the EN pin. To set the start voltage, first select the bottom resistor (REN_B). The recommended value is between 1 kΩ and 100 kΩ. This example uses a 10-kΩ resistor.

For the voltages specified, the standard resistor value used for RENT is 39.2 kΩ and for RENB is 10 kΩ.
