7.3.8 Enable and Adjusting UVLO

The VIN pin voltage falling below 2.5 V disables the TPS57140-EP. If an application requires a higher UVLO, use the EN pin as shown in Figure 28 to adjust the input-voltage UVLO by using two external resistors. Though it is not necessary to use the UVLO adjust resistors, for operation, TI highly recommends providing consistent power-up behavior. The EN pin has an internal pullup current source, I1, of 0.9 μA that provides the default condition of the TPS57140-EP operating when the EN pin floats. When 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.

Figure 29 shows another technique to add input-voltage hysteresis. The designer can use this method if the resistance values are high from the previous method and there is a need for a wider voltage hysteresis. Resistor R3 sources additional hysteresis current into the EN pin.

Do not place a low-impedance voltage source with >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 30) must remain ≤5.8 V. The Zener diode can sink up to 100 μA. The EN pin voltage can be >5 V if the VIN voltage source has a high impedance and does not source more than 100 μA into the EN pin.
