Enable and Programmable UVLO

The TPS55288 has a dual function enable and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit. When the input voltage at the VIN pin is above the input UVLO rising threshold of 3 V and the EN/UVLO pin is pulled above 1.15 V but less than the enable UVLO threshold of 1.23 V, the TPS55288 is enabled but still in standby mode. The TPS55288 starts to detect the resistance between the MODE pin and ground. After that, the TPS55288 selects the power supply for VCC, the I2C slave address, and the PFM or FPWM mode for light load condition accordingly.

The EN/UVLO pin has an accurate UVLO voltage threshold to support programmable input undervoltage lockout with hysteresis. When the EN/UVLO pin voltage is greater than the UVLO threshold of 1.23 V, the TPS55288 is enabled for I2C communication and switching operation. A hysteresis current IUVLO_HYS is sourced out of the EN/UVLO pin to provide hysteresis that prevents on/off chattering in the presence of noise with a slowly changing input voltage.

By using resistor divider as shown in Figure 7-1, the turnon threshold is calculated using Equation 1.

Equation 1. GUID-BF07E82C-1278-47FB-A41F-055D6ACF116C-low.gif

where

  • VUVLO is the UVLO threshold of 1.23 V at the EN/UVLO pin

The hysteresis between the UVLO turnon threshold and turnoff threshold is set by the upper resistor in the EN/UVLO resistor divider and is given by the Equation 2.

Equation 2. GUID-12A088C2-9430-48BA-BCDE-8B1E6882A9C5-low.gif

where

  • IUVLO_HYS is the sourcing current from the EN/UVLO pin when the voltage at the EN/UVLO pin is above VUVLO

Using an NMOSFET together with a resistor divider can implement both logic enable and programmable UVLO as shown in Figure 7-2. The EN logic high level must be greater than enable threshold plus the Vth of the NMOSFET Q1. The Q1 also eliminates the leakage current from VIN to ground through the UVLO resistor divider during shutdown mode.
