PRODUCTION DATA
The auto start-up feature is an OR gate with two inputs; an internal power good signal (logic 1 when VIN>VBAT + VIN-DT) and an external input from ASI terminal (internal 100kΩ pull-down). The ASO terminal outputs a signal that can be used as a system boot signal. The OR gate is powered by the OUT terminal and the OUT terminal must be powered by an external source (battery or P/S) or via the IN terminal for the ASO terminal to deliver a logic High. The ASI and/or the internal power good signal have to be logic high for the ASO to be logic high. The ASI/ASO, OUT and PG signals are used in production testing to test the system without a battery.
