8.3.3.1 Analog Soft-Start (Default) and Digital Soft-Start

The TPS65400 has the ability to use an analog-based soft-start ramp based on external capacitors (one input for each switcher) or to use internal signals based on digital logics and DACs to perform the soft-start function.

When using external soft-start configuration (default configuration), the SSx pins are connected to the soft-start input of the error amplifier.

When using the internal digital soft-start signal, the soft-start input to the error amplifier increases step-by-step at a rate set according to the value set in TON_RAMP_RATE (see (DEh) TON_TRANSITION_RATE).

ΔVSS_step is 10 mV. Tss_step depends on the soft-start time option selected. See (DEh) TON_TRANSITION_RATE for more details.
