TPS7A02: Discharge function at power up

Part Number: TPS7A02

Hi,

The part offers a discharge function for the P-version.

It is activated if the EN is low or the device is in UVLO.

If we look at figure 50 in the datasheet and assume for now the VEN = VIN = 10ms ramp time, will the discharge be activated at any time during the ramp up of VIN/VEN ?  for few ms only ?

Thanks,

Luc

  • Hi Luc, 

    The discharge function is only when VEN less than VEN(low). Although 10ms is very slow rampup, you would not see the discharge. Since VEN=VIN you would ramp them at the same time and turn on the device as soon as you meet the requirements. 

    Hope this answers your question.  Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have more doubts. 

    Best,
