TPS2663: Slew rate instability

Part Number: TPS2663

Tool/software:

Hello.

I have a problem with the slew rate of the output voltage. Sometimes the slew rate is correct - around 100 ms, and sometimes it is only around 500 us. I attached some waveforms of situations described:

Conditions:

V(in) = 45 V

Cdvdt = 100 nF

Cout = 40 uF

Waveform description:

Yello - V(out)

Green - SHDN pin

Blue - I(out)

500 us slew rate:

100 ms slew rate:

One clue I have is that the fast slew rate happens when the capacitors at the output have not completely discharged after switching the IC off and there is still around 10-15 V at the OUT pin. But datasheet does not mention any relations of voltage at the output to the slew rate or I did not find the correct information.
