OUTPUT ENABLE AND UVLO
For the ADP3193A to begin switching, the input supply (VCC)
to the controller must be higher than the UVLO threshold and
the EN pin must be higher than its 0.85 V threshold. This
initiates a system start-up sequence. If either UVLO or EN is
less than its respective threshold, the ADP3193A is disabled.
This holds the PWM outputs at ground, shorts the DELAY
capacitor to ground, and forces PWRGD and OD signals low.
ADP3193A
In the application circuit (see Figure 10), the OD pin should be
connected to the OD inputs of the ADP3120A drivers. Grounding
OD disables the drivers such that both DRVH and DRVL are
grounded. This feature is important in preventing the discharge
of the output capacitors when the controller is shut off. If the
driver outputs are not disabled, a negative voltage can be generated
during output due to the high current discharge of the output
capacitors through the inductors.
