L6598

OP AMP Section

The integrated OP AMP is designed to offer Low Output Impedance, wide band, High input Impedance and wide

Common Mode Range. It can be readily used to implement protection features or a closed loop control. For this

Comparators

Two CMOS comparators are available to perform protection schemes. Short pulses (>= 200ns) on Comparators

Input are recognised. The EN1 input (active High), has a threshold of 0.6V (typical value) forces the L6598 in a

latched shut down state (e.g. LVG Low, HVG low, Oscillator stopped), as in the Under Voltage Conditions. Nor-

mal Operating conditions are resumed after a power-off power-on sequence. The EN2 input (active high), with

a threshold of 1.2V (typical value) restarts a Soft Start sequence (see Timing Diagrams). In addition the EN2

Comparator, when activated, removes a latched shutdown caused by EN1.
