OPERATIO
In this fashion, the inrush current is controlled and C
is charged up slowly during the soft-start cycle.
The timing diagram in Figure 6 illustrates the operation of
the LTC4211 in a normal power-up sequence with limited
inrush current as described by Equation 6. At Time Point 5,
the GATE pin voltage begins to ramp indicating that the
power MOSFET is beginning to charge C
Point 5A, the inrush current causes a 50mV voltage drop
across R
ing the inrush current to a fixed level. At Time Point 6, the
GATE pin voltage continues to ramp as C
V
and the internal servo loop disengages. At the end of the
soft-start cycle (Time Point 7), RESET is high and SLOW
COMP is armed.

FREQUENCY COMPENSATION AT SOFT-START
If the external gate input capacitance (C
600pF, no external gate capacitor is required at GATE to
stabilize the internal current-limiting loop during soft-
start. Otherwise, connect a gate capacitor between the
GATE pin and ground to increase the total gate capacitance
to be equal to or above 600pF. The servo loop that controls
the external MOSFET during current limiting has a unity-
gain frequency of about 105kHz and phase margin of 80°
for external MOSFET gate input capacitances to 2.5nF.
USING AN EXTERNAL GATE CAPACITOR
The LTC4211 automatically limits the inrush current in one
of two ways: by controlling the GATE pin voltage slew rate
