JAJSB09K January 2010 – February 2018 LM27402
PRODUCTION DATA.
If enable (EN) is not controlled directly, the LM27402 can be pre-programmed to turn on at an input voltage higher than the UVLO voltage. This is done with an external resistor divider from VIN to EN and EN to GND as shown in Figure 28.
The resistor values of RA and RB are relatively sized to allow the EN pin to reach the precision enable threshold voltage at the appropriate input supply voltage. With the enable current source considered, the equation to solve for RA is Equation 9:
where RA is the resistor from VIN to EN, RB is the resistor from EN to GND, IEN is the internal enable pull-up current (2 µA) and 1.17 V is the fixed precision enable threshold voltage. Typical values for RB range from 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ.
