Soft-start

The soft-start is essential to assure correct and safe start up of the step-down converter. It

avoids inrush current surge and makes the output voltage increases monothonically.

The soft-start is performed by a staircase ramp on the non-inverting input (VREF) of the error

amplifier. So the output voltage slew rate is:

Equation 1

SROUT

=

SRVREF

⋅

⎛

⎝

+

RR-----12--⎠⎞

where SRVREF is the slew rate of the non-inverting input while R1 and R2 the resistor divider

to regulate the output voltage (see Figure 7). The soft-start stair case consists of 64 steps of

9.5 mV each one, from 0 V to 0.6 V. The time base of one step is of 32 clock cycles. So the

soft-start time and then the output voltage slew rate depend on the switching frequency.

For example with a switching frequency of 250 kHz the SSTIME is 8 ms.
