APPLICATIONCONSIDERATIONS
Input System Instability: This condition can occur because any
DC/DCconverterappearsincrementallyasanegativeresistanceload.

Input Filtering and External Capacitance: Figure E below
provides a diagram showing the internal input filter components.

Figure F shows three turn-on scenarios, where a Startup Inhibit
Periodisinitiatedatt0,t1,andt2:
Beforetimet0,whentheinputvoltageisbelowtheUVLthreshold,
the unit is disabled by the Input Under-Voltage Lockout feature.
When the input voltage rises above the UVLthreshold, the Input
Under-VoltageLockoutisreleased,andaStartupInhibitPeriodis
