UVLO Resistor Selection

The external under voltage lockout (UVLO) resistors set the minimum operating voltage of the regulator. Two levels must be specified; the voltage the LM5156 device starts operation (VSUPPLY(ON)) and the voltage the LM5156 enters stand-by mode (VSUPPLY(OFF)). In this example, VSUPPLY(ON) voltage is 2.6 V and the VSUPPLY(OFF) is 2.2 V. Using Equation 19, the top UVLO resistor (RUVLOT) is calculated.

Equation 19. GUID-1DA851CF-6761-4792-AD71-5784F3D3478B-low.gif

A standard value of 60.4 kΩ is selected for RUVLOT. Using Equation 20 the top UVLO resistor (RUVLOB) is calculated
