JAJSOR1E June 2022 – August 2024 LM5177
PRODUCTION DATA
The integrated power-on reset system supplies all internal functional circuits other than the gate drivers and handles the supervision for the internal logic. The low quiescent current design of this block enables an extremely low shutdown current of the whole system. There is a power ORing between the VIN and BIAS pin for the POR system to ensure LM5177 functionality even under extreme operation conditions, like an output or input short.
Once the voltage on VIN or BIAS rises above the POR threshold, the device logic starts the initialization process and is continuously monitoring the EN/UVLO pin to start or stop the converter operation at the selected UVLO thresholds. The POR-system contains an additional voltage detection for the VIN pin. This block supervises the input voltage and ensures the controllers power stage operation is blocked outside the min. recommended operating input voltage.
