7.3.7 Enable and Adjusting Undervoltage Lockout

The TPS54540B is enabled when the VIN pin voltage rises above 4.3 V and the EN pin voltage exceeds the enable threshold of 1.2 V. The TPS54540B is disabled when the VIN pin voltage falls below 4 V or when the EN pin voltage is below 1.2 V. The EN pin has an internal pullup current source, I1, of 1.2 μA that enables operation of the TPS54540B when the EN pin floats.

If an application requires a higher undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold, use the circuit shown in Figure 22 to adjust the input voltage UVLO with two external resistors. When the EN pin voltage exceeds 1.2 V, an additional 3.4 μA of hysteresis current, IHYS, is sourced out of the EN pin. When the EN pin is pulled below 1.2 V, the 3.4-μA Ihys current is removed. This additional current facilitates adjustable input-voltage UVLO hysteresis. Use Equation 4 to calculate RUVLO1 for the desired UVLO hysteresis voltage. Use Equation 5 to calculate RUVLO2 for the desired VIN start voltage.

In applications designed to start at relatively low input voltages (for example, from 4.5 V to 9 V) and withstand high input voltages (for example, from 40 V or 42 V), the EN pin may experience a voltage greater than the absolute maximum voltage of 8.4 V during the high input voltage condition. It is recommended to use a zener diode to clamp the pin voltage below the absolute maximum rating.
