7.3.4 Enable and Adjustable Input Undervoltage Lockout (VIN UVLO)

The EN pin has an internal pullup current-source that provides the default condition of the TPS54531 device while operating when the EN pin floats.

The TPS54531 device is disabled when the VIN pin voltage falls below the internal VIN UVLO threshold. Using an external VIN UVLO to add at least 500-mV hysteresis is recommended unless the VIN voltage is greater than (VOUT + 2 V). To adjust the VIN UVLO with hysteresis, use the external circuitry connected to the EN pin as shown in Figure 7-1. When the EN pin voltage exceeds 1.25 V, an additional 3 μA of hysteresis is added. Use Equation 1 and Equation 2 to calculate the resistor values required for the desired VIN UVLO threshold voltages. The VSTOP must always be greater than 3.5 V.

Equation 1. Ren1=VSTART-VSTOP3μA

where

  • VSTART is the input start threshold voltage
  • VSTOP is the input stop threshold voltage
Equation 2. Ren2=VENVSTART-VENRen1+1μA

where

  • VEN is the enable threshold voltage of 1.25 V

The external start and stop voltages are approximate. The actual start and stop voltages can vary.
