C4

The capacitor at the SS pin determines the soft-start time; that is, the time for the reference voltage and the output voltage, to reach the final regulated value. Equation 12 determines the time.

Equation 12. LM5575-Q1 30070827.gif

For this application, a C4 value of 0.01 µF was chosen which corresponds to a soft-start time of 1 ms.
