7.3.9 Output On/Off Enable (EN)

The voltage on the EN/SYNC pin provides electrical ON/OFF control of the device. Once the EN pin voltage exceeds the threshold voltage, the device starts operation. If the EN pin voltage is pulled below the threshold voltage, the regulator stops switching and enters low quiescent current state.

The EN pin cannot be open circuit or floating. The simplest way to enable the operation of the LMZM33603 is to connect the EN pin to VIN directly as shown in Figure 27. This allows self-start-up of the LMZM33603 when VIN is within the operation range.

If an application requires controlling the EN pin, an external logic signal can be used to drive EN/SYNC pin as shown in Figure 28. Applications using an open drain/collector device to interface with this pin require a pullup resistor to a voltage above the enable threshold.

Figure 29 and Figure 30 show typical turn-ON and turn-OFF waveforms using the enable control.
