Soft Start:
When the BO pin is grounded, the controller is shut down
and the SS pin is internally grounded in order to discharge
the soft start capacitor connected to this pin (Case #3). If the
As illustrated by the following figure, the rising voltage on
the SS pin voltage divided by 4 controls the peak current
sensed on the CS pin. Thus as soon as the CS pin voltage
becomes higher than the SS pin voltage divided by 4 the
driver latch is reset.
