8.3.2 Soft Start

To protect the battery and system from excessive inrush current, the device features a soft start of the output voltage.

Once the device has been enabled, it initializes and powers up its internal circuits. This occurs during the regulator start-up delay time (tSTARTUP_DELAY). Once this delay expires, the device enters soft start, starts switching, and ramps up the output voltage.

The device operates with a reduced switch current limit (ILIMF_SS) throughout the entire soft-start phase (tSS). The switch current limit is increased to its nominal value (ILIMF) once the output voltage has reached its nominal value or the reduced current limit soft-start time (tSS_ILIMF) has expired, whichever occurs first. The soft-start phase (tSS) can last up to approximately 700 µs. Figure 12 shows the start-up procedure.
