7.4.4 Power Good Function (PG)

The LMZ21701 features a power good function which can be used for sequencing of multiple rails. The PG pin is an open-drain output and requires a pull-up resistor RPG to VOUT (or any other external voltage less than 7 V). When the Nano Module is enabled and UVLO is satisfied, the power good function starts monitoring the output voltage. The PG pin is kept at logic low if the output has not reached the proper regulation voltage. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics table for the PG voltage thresholds. The PG pin can sink 2 mA of current which sets the minimum limit of the RPG resistance value:

Equation 3. RPG-MIN= VPULL-UP / 2 mA

The PG pin goes low impedance if the device is disabled or the thermal protection is active.
