7.3.15 Power Good (PWRGD Pin)

The PWRGD pin output is an open drain MOSFET. The output is pulled low when the VSENSE voltage enters the fault condition by falling below 91% or rising above 107% of the nominal internal reference voltage. There is a 2% hysteresis on the threshold voltage, so when the VSENSE voltage rises to the good condition above 93% or falls below 105% of the internal voltage reference the PWRGD output MOSFET is turned off. It is recommended to use a pull-up resistor between the values of 1 kΩ and 100 kΩ to a voltage source that is 6 V or less. The PWRGD is in a valid state once the VIN input voltage is greater than 1.2 V.
