Figure 6: Adjustable UVLO Using EN Divider

when EN Falls

The UVLO threshold can be calculated with

Equation (13) and Equation (14) when EN is

rising or falling, respectively:

Where VEN_RISING = 1.45V, VEN_FALLING = 1.12V.

When choosing R4, ensure it is big enough to

limit the current flowing into the EN pin below

100µA.

BST Resistor and Capacitor

A resistor in series with the BST capacitor (RBST)

can reduce the SW rising rate and voltage spikes.

This enhances EMI performance and reduces

voltage stress at a high VIN. A higher resistance

is

better

for

SW

spike

reduction,

but

compromises efficiency. To make a tradeoff

between EMI and efficiency, it is recommended

to keep RBST below 20Ω. It is also recommended

for the BST capacitor to be between 0.1µF and

1μF.
