APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Automatic Restart
If there is an overvoltage, and the resistor divider feeding
OV is connected to the output of the N-Channel pass
transistor, the LTC1642 will automatically restart even if
FAULT is not tied to ON. If the divider is connected to the
input side, the LTC1642 will restart itself only if FAULT is
tied to ON, and only after the overvoltage clears.
The OV and FB Comparators
The propagation delay through the OV and FB compara-
tors on low to high transitions depends strongly on the
differential input voltage. The relationship is shown in
Figure 11. The minimum propagation delay for large
overdrives is about 20µs. In addition the comparators
have 3mV of hysteresis.
Internal Voltage Clamp Protection
The LTC1642 includes a shunt regulator to protect itself

normally with one exception: if the charge pump is on, the
GATE voltage is usually near ground but this is not
guaranteed. Use the OV pin to ensure that GATE is grounded.

Undervoltage Monitor
The LTC1642 will assert RESET if a monitored voltage falls
below an adjustable minimum. When the monitored volt-
age has exceeded its minimum for at least one system
timing cycle, RESET goes high. The monitoring circuitry
comprises an internal 1.22V bandgap reference, an inter-
nal precision voltage comparator and an external resistive
divider to monitor the output supply voltage.
The circuit is shown in Figure 12, and typical waveforms
in Figure 13. When the voltage at the FB pin rises above its
reset threshold (1.22V), the comparator output goes low
and a timing cycle starts (times 1 and 5). Following the
cycle RESET is pulled high. At time 2 the voltage at FB
drops below the comparator’s threshold and RESET is
pulled low. If the FB pin rises above the reset threshold for
less than a timing cycle the RESET output will remain low
(time 3 to time 4). The 15µA pull-up current source to V
on RESET has a series diode so the pin can be pulled above
V
back into the supply.
