2.9 Powering Up
The start-up waveform is shown in
, the top trace shows Vin, and the
bottom trace shows Vout. In
, the top trace shows EN (enable) whereas the bottom trace shows Vout.
Initially, the input voltage is applied and the output is inhibited by using a jumper at J2 to tie EN to GND. When
the jumper is removed, EN is released. When the EN voltage reaches the enable-threshold voltage of 1.25 V, the
start-up sequence begins and the internal reference voltage begins to ramp up at the internally set rate toward
0.8 V and the output voltage ramps up to the externally set value of 3.3 V.
