JAJSJP4A August 2017 – September 2020 LV14360
PRODUCTION DATA
The LV14360S has an external soft-start pin for programmable output ramp up time. The soft-start feature is used to prevent inrush current impacting the LV14360 and its 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:
The internal soft start resets while device is disabled or in thermal shutdown.
