ZHCS527G January 2007 – April 2025 LM5574
PRODUCTION DATA
The LM5574 contains a dual-level Shutdown (SD) circuit. When the SD pin voltage is less than 0.7V, the regulator is in a low current shutdown mode. When the SD pin voltage is greater than 0.7V but less than 1.225V, the regulator is in standby mode. In standby mode, the Vcc regulator is active but the output switch is disabled. When the SD pin voltage exceeds 1.225V, the output switch is enabled and normal operation begins. An internal 5µA pullup current source configures the regulator to be fully operational if the SD pin is left open.
An external set-point voltage divider from VIN to GND can be used to set the operational input range of the regulator. The divider must be designed such that the voltage at the SD pin is greater than 1.225V when Vin is in the desired operating range. The internal 5µA pullup current source must be included in calculations of the external set-point divider. Hysteresis of 0.1V is included for both the shutdown and standby thresholds. The SD pin is internally clamped with a 1kΩ resistor and an 8V Zener clamp. The voltage at the SD pin can never exceed 14V. If the voltage at the SD pin exceeds 8V, the bias current increases at a rate of 1mA/V.
The SD pin can also be used to implement various remote enable, disable functions. Pulling the SD pin below the 0.7V threshold totally disables the controller. If the SD pin voltage is above 1.225V, the regulator is operational.
