8.1.3 Startup Behavior

The device startup time is dependent on the circuit topology (FB versus HB configuration), AC supply voltage and frequency, input capacitors values, and output voltage. The FB configuration has a faster startup time compared to the HB configuration. Having a larger than minimum CS capacitor value shortens the startup time without exceeding the maximum ISHUNT current specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. However, startup behavior depends on which CSCIN and CLDO_IN capacitor values are used. Figure 19 illustrates the startup behavior with the minimum required CSCIN capacitor and a typical CLDO_IN capacitor to support 30 mA of load current with the FB configuration. Figure 20 illustrates the startup behavior with the minimum required CSCIN capacitor and a large CLDO_IN capacitor in the same configuration.

Although the load current has no effect on startup time or startup behavior, the bulk capacitor CSCIN and input capacitor CLDO_IN have a significant effect on the time and behavior; see Figure 19 and Figure 20. For some applications, larger CSCIN or CLDO_IN capacitors are used to hold-up the output voltage on for a longer period of time after the input collapses.
