SNVSAG4B November 2015 – December 2024 LMR14020-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The LMR14020-Q1 has soft-start pin for programmable output ramp up time. The soft-start feature is used to prevent inrush current impacting the LMR14020-Q1 and the load when power is first applied. The soft-start time can be programed by connecting an external capacitor CSS from SS pin to GND. An internal current source (typically ISS = 3 μA) charges CSS and generates a ramp from 0 V to VREF. The soft-start time can be calculated by Equation 4:
For LMR14020-Q1 in WSON package, the maximum value of CSS is 4.7 nF.
The soft-start resets while device is disabled or in thermal shutdown.
