Tool/software:
Hello,
I have a question about the conditions for completing the soft start when tracking with the LM3495.
In Figure 31 of the datasheet, when using the tracking function, is the condition for soft-start completion the point when 400 switching cycles have been completed?
Or is soft-start completion determined after the output voltage has stabilized (red arrow in the figure)?
Looking at the block diagram in the data sheet, TRACK and the internal soft start are input to the error amplifier, and I speculate that the conditions for soft-start completion are also determined by this circuit.
However, no matter where I looked in the data sheet, I could not clearly understand the conditions for soft-start completion when the tracking function is used, which is why I am asking the question.
The overcurrent protection operation (determination of whether to transition to hiccup mode) differs during soft-start and after soft-start is complete, so the purpose is to clarify the distinction between during soft-start and after soft-start is complete.
Best regards,
