7.3.11 Configurable Soft Start

The soft-start feature allows the regulator to gradually reach the steady-state operating point, thus reducing start-up stresses and surges.

The LM5177 features an adjustable soft start that determines the charging time of the output. The soft-start feature limits inrush current as a result of high output capacitance to avoid an over-current condition.

At the beginning of the soft-start sequence, the SS voltage is 0 V. If the SS pin voltage is below the feedback reference voltage, VREF, the soft-start pin controls the regulated FB voltage and the internal soft-start current source gradually increases the voltage on an external soft-start capacitor connected to the SS pin, resulting in a gradual rise of the output voltage and FB pin. Once the voltage on the SS exceeds the internal reference voltage, the soft-start interval is complete and the error amplifier is referenced to V(REF).

The soft-start time (t(ss)) is given by:

Equation 14. C SS =   I SS × t SS V Ref

The soft-start capacitor is internally discharged when the converter is disabled because of the following:

  • EN/UVLO falling below the operating threshold
  • VCC falling below the VCC UV threshold
  • The device is in hiccup mode current limiting.
  • The device is in thermal shutdown.
