During the first start up phase of the converter, after the soft-start up time, t
voltage could force the feedback pin voltage to rise up to the
off the converter itself.
To avoid this event, the appropriate feedback network has to be selected according to the
output load. More the network feedback fixes the compensation loop stability. The

as well as it needs to activate the overload protection (see equation 5).
After the start up time, t
capacitor could not be at its nominal value and the controller interprets this situation as an
overload condition. In this case, the OLP delay helps to avoid an incorrect device shut down
during the start up phase.
Owing to the above considerations, the OLP delay time must be long enough to by-pass the
initial output voltage transient and check the overload condition only when the output voltage
is in steady state. The output transient time depends from the value of the output capacitor
and from the load.
When the value of the C
ensure enough OLP delay, an alternative compensation network can be used and it is
showed in
Using this alternative compensation network, two poles (f
