6.3.2 Split Rail and External LDO

The TPS54J060 can also operate with an externally supplied VCC. It is important that the external VCC voltage (3.3 V ±5%) be applied and ready before at least one of the VIN or EN signals are applied. This avoids the possibility of sinking current out of the internal LDO and thus ensures a smooth power-up sequence.

A good power-up sequence is where least one of VINUVLO rising threshold or EN rising threshold is satisfied later than the VCCUVLO rising threshold. A practical example is: VIN applied is first, then the external bias applied, and then EN signal goes high. When the EN pin voltage rises above the enable threshold voltage, the device enters the start-up sequence as above. A good power-down sequence is the reverse, where either the VINUVLO falling threshold or EN falling threshold is satisfied before the VCCUVLO falling threshold.
