TRACKING AN EXTERNAL SUPPLY
By using a properly chosen resistor divider network connected to the SS/TRK pin, as shown in
, the
output of the LM20242 can be configured to track an external voltage source to obtain a simultaneous or
ratiometric start up.
ratiometric start up.
Figure 14. Tracking an External Supply
Since the soft-start charging current I
SS
is always present on the SS/TRK pin, the size of R2 should be less than
10 k
Ω
to minimize the errors in the tracking output. Once a value for R2 is selected the value for R1 can be
calculated using appropriate equation in
, to give the desired start up.

start up sequences; the top waveform shows a simultaneous start up while the waveform at the bottom illustrates
a ratiometric start up.

Figure 15. Common Start Up Sequences
A simultaneous start up is preferred when powering most FPGAs, DSPs, or other microprocessors. In these
systems the higher voltage, V
systems the higher voltage, V
OUT1
, usually powers the I/O, and the lower voltage, V
OUT2
, powers the core. A
simultaneous start up provides a more robust power up for these applications since it avoids turning on any
parasitic conduction paths that may exist between the core and the I/O pins of the processor.

The second most common power on behavior is known as a ratiometric start up. This start up is preferred in
applications where both supplies need to be at the final value at the same time.
