PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS552882 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 TPS552882 is enabled but still in standby mode. The TPS552882 starts to detect the resistance between the MODE pin and ground. After that, the TPS552882 selects the power supply for VCC 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 TPS552882 is enabled for switching operation. A hysteresis current IUVLO_HYS of 5 μA 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.
where
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
where
Using an NMOS FET together with 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.
