APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Soft-Start
If the SS pin is not connected, this pin defaults to a linear
voltage ramp, from 0V to 1.6V in about 220 s at GATE
start-up, as shown in Figure 17a. If a soft-start capacitor,

modified from a linear ramp to an RC response (Equa-
tion 6), as shown in Figure 17b. This feature allows load
current to slowly ramp-up at GATE start-up. Soft-start is
initiated at time point 3 by a TIMER transition from V
to V
the V
the SS pin is below 0.2V, the analog current limit amplifier
holds GATE low. Above 0.2V, GATE is released and 50 A
ramps up the compensation network and GATE capaci-
tance at time point 4. Meanwhile, the SS pin voltage
continues to ramp up. When GATE reaches the MOSFET’s
threshold, the MOSFET begins to conduct. Due to the
