SBVS064O December 2005 – October 2024 TPS74201
PRODUCTION DATA
The enable (EN) pin is active high and is compatible with standard digital signaling levels. VEN less than 0.4 V turns the regulator off and VEN greater than 1.1 V turns the regulator on. Unlike many regulators, the enable circuitry has hysteresis and deglitching for use with relatively slow-ramping analog signals. This configuration allows the TPS742 devices to be enabled by connecting the output of another supply to the EN pin. The enable circuitry typically has 50 mV of hysteresis and a deglitch circuit to help avoid ON and OFF cycling because of small glitches in the VEN signal.
The enable threshold is typically 0.8 V and varies with temperature and process variations. Temperature variation is approximately –1 mV/°C; therefore, process variation accounts for most of the variation in the enable threshold. If precise turnon timing is required, then use a fast rise-time signal to enable the TPS742 devices.
If not used, EN can be connected to either IN or BIAS. If EN is connected to IN, then connect EN as closely as possible to the largest capacitance on the input to prevent voltage droops on that line from triggering the enable circuit.
