7.3.8 Enable and Adjusting Undervoltage Lockout

The TPS54260 is disabled when the VIN pin voltage falls below 2.5 V. If an application requires a higher undervoltage lockout (UVLO), use the EN pin as shown in Figure 27 to adjust the input voltage UVLO by using the two external resistors. Though it is not necessary to use the UVLO adjust registers, for operation it is highly recommended to provide consistent power-up behavior. The EN pin has an internal pullup current source, I1, of 0.9μA that provides the default condition of the TPS54260 operating when the EN pin floats. Once the EN pin voltage exceeds 1.25 V, an additional 2.9 μA of hysteresis, Ihys, is added. This additional current facilitates input voltage hysteresis. Use Equation 2 to set the external hysteresis for the input voltage. Use Equation 3 to set the input start voltage.

Equation 3. TPS54260 q_r2_lvs795.gif

Another technique to add input voltage hysteresis is shown in Figure 28. This method may be used, if the resistance values are high from the previous method and a wider voltage hysteresis is needed. The resistor R3 sources additional hysteresis current into the EN pin.

Equation 5. TPS54260 q_r2hyst_lvs795.gif

Do not place a low-impedance voltage source with greater than 5 V directly on the EN pin. Do not place a capacitor directly on the EN pin if VEN > 5 V when using a voltage divider to adjust the start and stop voltage. The node voltage, (see Figure 29) must remain equal to or less than 5.8 V. The zener diode can sink up to
100 µA. The EN pin voltage can be greater than 5 V if the VIN voltage source has a high impedance and does not source more than 100 µA into the EN pin.
