UVLO OPERATION
The TPS4005x uses variable (user programmable) UVLO protection. The UVLO circuit holds the soft-start low
until the input voltage has exceeded the user programmable undervoltage threshold.
The TPS4005x uses the feed-forward pin, KFF, as a user programmable low-line UVLO detection. This variable
low-line UVLO threshold compares the PWM ramp duration to the oscillator clock period. An undervoltage
condition exists if the TPS4005x receives a clock pulse before the ramp has reached 90% of its full amplitude.
The ramp duration is a function of the ramp slope, which is directly related to the current into the KFF pin. The
KFF current is a function of the input voltage and the resistance from KFF to the input voltage. The KFF resistor
can be referenced to the oscillator frequency as descibed in equation (3):

The variable UVLO function uses a three鈭抌it full adder to prevent spurious shut-downs or turn-ons due to spikes
or fast line transients. When the adder reaches a total of seven counts in which the ramp duration is shorter than
the clock cycle a powergood signal is asserted and a soft-start initiated, and the upper and lower MOSFETS
are turned off.
