7.3.8 Enable (EN)

The EN pin provides electrical ON and OFF control of the device. When the EN pin voltage exceeds the threshold voltage, the device begins operation. If the EN pin voltage is pulled below the threshold voltage, the regulator stops switching and enters the low-quiescent current state.

The EN pin has an internal pullup-current source, which allows the user to float the EN pin to enable the device. If an application requires control of the EN pin, use open-drain or open-collector output logic to interface with the pin.

Figure 23 shows the typical application of the enable function. Turning Q1 on applies a low voltage to the enable control pin and disables the output of the supply, shown in Figure 24. If Q1 is turned off, the supply executes a soft-start power-up sequence, as shown in Figure 25.
