An adjustable SVS is a flexible and simple component that requires the designer to make a tradeoff between accuracy and current consumption. Effectively designing the resistor divider that generates the trip point ensures that the circuit is as accurate as it can be while not overloading the system. All comparator inputs (SENSE, LBI, PFI, and so forth) have leakage current, and this leakage is a source of inaccuracy. Proper selection of the resistor divider values allows the optimum selection of accuracy and current consumption. The equations presented in this application note can be used to fine-tune the divider to best meet the demands of the application.
