6.3.4.1 Start-Up Tracking

Figure 6-5 shows how both regulators use a common reference, which enables start-up tracking. Using the same reference voltage for both the positive and negative regulators makes sure that the regulators start-up together in a controlled fashion; see Figure 5-24 and Figure 5-25.

Ramps on VINx with EN = VINP that are slower than the soft-start time do not have start-up tracking. If ramps slower than the soft-start time are used then enable should be used to start the device to provide start-up tracking. A small mismatch between the positive and negative internal enable thresholds means that one channel turns on at a slightly lower input voltage than the other channel. This mismatch is typically not a problem in most applications and is easily solved by controlling the start-up with enable. The external signal can come from the input power supply power-good indicator, a voltage supervisor output such as the TPS3701, or from another source.
