SLVSAI4E September 2010 – September 2024 TPS74801-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The enable (EN) pin is active high and is compatible with standard digital signaling levels. VEN below 0.4 V turns the regulator off, while VEN above 1.1 V turns the regulator on. Unlike many regulators, the enable circuitry has hysteresis and deglitching for use with relatively slowly ramping analog signals. This configuration allows the TPS74801-Q1 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-off cycling as a result 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; process variation accounts for most of the rest of the variation to the 0.4-V and 1.1-V limits. If precise turn-on timing is required, a fast rise-time signal must be used to enable the TPS74801-Q1.
If not used, EN can be connected to either IN or BIAS. If EN is connected to IN, connect the EN pin as close as possible to the largest capacitance on the input to prevent voltage droops on that line from triggering the enable circuit.
