PROTECTIONꢀFEATURES
Input Under-Voltage Lockout:ꢀ Theꢀ converterꢀ isꢀ designedꢀ
to turn off when the input voltage is too low, helping avoid an
input system instability problem, described in more detail in
the application note titled “Inputꢀ Systemꢀ Instability”ꢀ onꢀ ourꢀ
website. The lockout circuitry is a comparator with dc hysteresis.
Whenꢀtheꢀinputꢀvoltageꢀisꢀrising,ꢀitꢀmustꢀexceedꢀtheꢀtypicalꢀTurn-
OnꢀVoltageꢀThresholdꢀvalueꢀ(listedꢀonꢀtheꢀspecificationsꢀpage)ꢀ
beforeꢀ theꢀ converterꢀ willꢀ turnꢀ on.ꢀ Onceꢀ theꢀ converterꢀ isꢀ on,ꢀ
theꢀ inputꢀ voltageꢀ mustꢀ fallꢀ belowꢀ theꢀ typicalꢀ Turn-Offꢀ Voltageꢀ
Threshold value before the converter will turn off.
To decrease the output voltage, the user should connect a
resistorꢀbetweenꢀPinꢀ6ꢀandꢀPinꢀ5ꢀ(SENSE(-)ꢀinput).ꢀForꢀaꢀdesiredꢀ

output voltage too high may cause the over-voltage protection
circuit to engage, particularly during transients.
Over-ꢁemperature Shutdown:ꢀ Aꢀ temperatureꢀ sensorꢀ onꢀ
the converter senses the average temperature of the module.
The thermal shutdown circuit is designed to turn the converter
off when the temperature at the sensed location reaches the

It is not necessary for the user to add capacitance at the Trim
