PRODUCTION DATA
The EN pin provides electrical on/off control of the device. Once the EN pin voltage exceeds the threshold voltage (typically 1.2 V), the device starts operation. If the EN pin voltage is pulled below the threshold voltage, the regulator stops switching and enters low power shutdown.
The EN pin has an internal pullup current source, allowing the user to float the EN pin for enabling the device. The EN pin can also be externally driven high or low. When the pulse-width is less than 22us, the EN pin will detect the pulse as a low and cause the device to enter hiccup-mode. If the pulse-width is greater than 22us, then the EN pin will detect the pulse as low but will not enter hiccup-mode.
For adjustable input undervoltage lockout (UVLO), connect the EN pin to the middle point of an external resistor divider. Once the EN pin voltage exceeds the threshold, an additional 5 µA of hystersis current is added to facilitate UVLO hysteresis. Equation 1 shows the calculation of resistor divider network.
