ENA Control

The enable start threshold voltage is 1.3V maximum. With ENA held below the 0.5V minimum stop threshold voltage the TPS5420 is disabled and switching is inhibited even if VIN is above the UVLO threshold. The quiescent current is reduced in this state. If the ENA voltage is increased above the max start threshold while V(VIN) is above the UVLO threshold, the device becomes active. Switching is enabled and the slow-start sequence is initiated. The TPS5420 starts linearly ramping up the internal reference voltage from 0V to the final value over the internal slow-start time period.
