UVLO Resistor Selection

The external under voltage lockout (UVLO) resistors set the minimum operating supply voltage of the regulator. Two levels must be specified; the voltage the LM5155 starts operation (VSUPPLY(ON)) and the voltage the LM5155 enters stand-by mode (VSUPPLY(OFF)). In this example, VSUPPLY(ON) voltage is 17 V and the VSUPPLY(OFF) is 16 V. Using Equation 24, the top UVLO resistor (RUVLOT) is calculated.

RUVLOT is selected to be 100kΩ. RUVLOB is calculated using Equation 25.
