APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
The desired soft-start rise time (t
programming capacitor C
sponds to 2μA average current during the soft-start inter-
val. This capacitor value follows the relation:

Considerations for Low-Voltage Output Applications

the 2μA signal current through R
reach this value before the soft-start function is engaged.
The value of this output soft-start startup voltage offset
(V
Which is typically 0.64V for R
In some low voltage output applications, it may be desir-
able to reduce the value of this soft-start startup voltage
offset. This is possible by reducing the value of R
reduced values of R
voltage ripple on the output must be minimized for proper
soft-start operation.
Peak-to-peak output voltage ripple (ΔV
posed on node “A” through the capacitor C
of R
It is important to use low ESR output capacitors for
LT3724 voltage converter designs to minimize this ripple
voltage component. A design with an excessive ripple
component can be evidenced by observing the V
during the start cycle.
The soft-start cycle should be evaluated to verify that the

External Current Limit Foldback Circuit
An additional startup voltage offset can occur during the
period before the LT3724 soft-start circuit becomes ac-
tive. Before the soft-start circuit throttles back the V
in response to the rising output voltage, current as high as

circuit takes hold and reduces the voltage on the V
