Active Discharge in Shutdown
Each MAX8671X regulator (REG1–REG5) has an inter-
nal 1kΩ resistor that discharges the output capacitor
when the regulator is off. The discharge resistors
ensure that the load circuitry powers down completely.
The internal discharge resistors are connected when a
regulator is disabled and when the device is in UVLO
with an input voltage greater than 1.0V. With an input
voltage less than 1.0V, the internal discharge resistors
are not activated.
Undervoltage and Overvoltage Lockout
USB/DC UVLO
Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) prevents an input supply
from being used when its voltage is below the operat-
ing range. When the USB voltage is less than the USB
UVLO threshold (4.0V typ), the USB input is discon-
nected from SYS, and UOK goes high impedance.
When the DC voltage is less than the DC UVLO thresh-
old (4.0V typ), the DC input is disconnected from SYS,
and DOK goes high impedance. In addition, when both
USB and DC are in UVLO, the battery charger is dis-
abled, and BAT is connected to SYS through the inter-
nal system load switch. REG1–REG4 are allowed to
operate from the battery without power at USB or DC.
REG5 is intended to power the system USB transceiver
circuitry, which is only active when USB power is avail-
able. Therefore, a valid source must be present on
either the USB or DC input for REG5 to enable.
