Full Start-Up Control
The EL7566 offers full start-up control. The core of this
control is a start-up comparator in front of the main PWM
controller. The STP and STN are the inputs to the
comparator, whose HI output forces the PWM comparator to
skip switching cycles. The user can choose any of the
following control configurations:
ADJUSTABLE SOFT-START
In this configuration, the ramp-up time is adjustable to any
time longer than the building soft-start time of 2ms. The
approximate ramp-up time, T

INPUT CAPACITOR
The main functions of the input capacitor(s) are to maintain
the input voltage steady and to filter out the pulse current
passing through the upper switch. The root-mean-square
value of this current is:
for a wide range of V
For long-term reliability, the input capacitor or combination of
capacitors must have the current rating higher than I
Use X5R or X7R type ceramic capacitors, or SPCAP or
POSCAP types of Polymer capacitors for their high current
handling capability.
