3.8 Start-up and Shutdown with EN
show the start-up and shutdown waveforms for U2 with EN. In
input voltage is initially applied and the output is inhibited by pulling EN to GND using an external function
generator. When the EN voltage is increased above the enable-threshold voltage, the start-up sequence begins
and the output voltage ramps up to the externally set value. In
, the external function generator pulls
EN to ground and the TPS543620 shuts down.
shows EN start-up with a 0.2-Ω resistor load.
shows the BP5 internal LDO start-up
relative to the EN pin.
A shunt on the ENOFF_U1 jumper or RDIV_VIN can be used to test the EN start-up of U1 and U2, respectively.
When the shunt is removed from ENOFF_U1, EN is released and the start-up sequence begins for U1. When
the shunt is placed on RDIV_VIN, EN is pulled to the input voltage through the resistor divider and the start-up
sequence begins for U2.
