Extra power management function (EPT)
Some applications need an extra power for a limited time window during which the converter
regulation has to be guaranteed. The extra power management function allows to design a
converter that can satisfy this request and is provided by the EPT pin, see
page 8
This function requires the use of a capacitor on EPT pin (C
discharged by means of a 5 µA current cycle by cycle. When the drain current raises over
85% of Idlim value, see I
while when the drain current is below I
reaches the V
After the converter shut down, the V
threshold (typ. 14.5 V) and according to the auto restart operation
(see
threshold (typical, 4.5 V) in order to charge again the V
operation is enabled again only when the voltage on EPT pin, drop below the V
(typical, 0.6 V). The low C
ensures safe operations and avoids overheating in case of repeated overload events. The
value of C
can be connected to GND if the function is not used.
