6.3.7.2 Equations for Soft-Start and Restart Time

The soft-start time (tSS) is defined as the time taken for the internal SS_EAMP node to go from 0 V to the 0.6-V VREF voltage. SS_EAMP starts rising as the SS pin goes beyond 0.65 V. The offset voltage between SS and SS_EAMP starts increasing as the SS pin voltage starts rising. Figure 6-6 shows that the SS time can be defined as the time taken for the SS pin voltage to change by 1.05 V (see Equation 10).

Equation 10. GUID-1290C1B2-880C-4945-B08A-EB081B04B2C3-low.gif

The restart time (tRS) is defined in Equation 11 as the time taken for the soft-start capacitor (CSS) to discharge from 2.5 V to 0.3 V and to then recharge up to 2.5 V.

Equation 11. GUID-654D563F-C630-4257-B439-68CB7AD540C5-low.gif

where

  • CSS is the soft-start capacitance in nF
  • tSS is the soft-start time in ms
  • tRS is the restart time in ms
Note:

During soft-start (VSS < 2.5 V), the overcurrent protection limit is 1.5 times the normal overcurrent protection limit. This allows a higher output capacitance to charge fully without activating overcurrent protection.
