Undervoltage Lockout
The MAX5069 features an input voltage UVLO/EN func-
tion to enable the PWM controller before any operation
can begin. The MAX5069A/D shut down if the voltage
at UVLO/EN falls below its 1.18V threshold. The
MAX5069B/C also incorporate a UVLO hysteresis input
to set the desired turn-off voltage.
MAX5069A/D UVLO Adjustment
The MAX5069A/D have an input voltage UVLO/EN with
a 1.231V threshold. Before any operation can com-
mence, the UVLO/EN voltage must exceed the 1.231V
threshold. The UVLO circuit keeps the PWM compara-
tor, ILIM comparator, oscillator, and output drivers shut-
down to reduce current consumption (see the
Functional Diagram).
Calculate R6 in Figure 2 by using the following formula:
R6
=
⎛
⎝⎜
VON
VULR2
⎞
− 1⎠⎟ ×
R7
where VULR2 is the UVLO/EN’s 1.231V rising threshold
and VON is the desired startup voltage. Choose an R7
value in the 20kΩ range.
After a successful startup, the MAX5069A/D shut down
if the voltage at UVLO/EN drops below its 1.18V fall-
ing threshold.

Programmable Hysteresis
In addition to programmable undervoltage lockout dur-
ing startup, the MAX5069B/C incorporate a UVLO/EN
