SNVS397F September 2005 – December 2025 LM5005
PRODUCTION DATA
The SD input supports adjustable input voltage undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with hysteresis for application specific power-up and power-down requirements. SD connects to a comparator-based input referenced to a 1.225V band-gap voltage with 100mV hysteresis. Use an external logic signal to drive the SD input to toggle the output ON and OFF and for system sequencing or protection.
Figure 7-3 Programmable Input Voltage UVLO With HysteresisIf the SD pin is not used, leave the pin as open circuit as the pin is pulled high by an internal 5µA current source. This allows self-start-up of the LM5005 when VCC is within its valid operating range above its UVLO threshold. However, Figure 7-3 shows that many applications benefit from using a resistor divider RUV1 and RUV2 to establish a precision input voltage UVLO level.
VIN(on) functions as the input voltage turnon threshold and VIN(off) functions as the input voltage thresholds. Select the UVLO resistors using Equation 7 and Equation 8.
An optional capacitor CUV in parallel with RUV2 provides filtering for the divider. If the input UVLO level is set at a low input voltage, it is possible that the maximum SD pin voltage of 7V could be exceeded at the higher end of the input voltage operating range. In this case, use a small 6.2V Zener diode clamp from SD to AGND so that the maximum SD operating voltage is never exceeded.
