3.3 5V Input Operation (R10 and R15)

To operate with a 5-V input, two resistors need to be changed. R10 (RKFF) sets the voltage ramp amplitude and needs to be reduced to 53.6 kΩ to lower the UVLO to 3.9 V for 5-V operation. In addition, a 330-kΩ resistor should be added at R15 to prevent an internal race condition during soft start.(1)

1. Due to higher duty cycles associated with higher output voltages or lower input voltages, output current should be limited to 10 A when operating with output voltages greater than 2.0 V or input voltages below 6 V to reduce conduction losses in the main switching FET (Q1). Under these conditions, a lower RdsON FET would normally be selected.
