The hysterisis voltage, VHYS, is the difference between the ON and OFF threshold values. The default value is 1
V and it can only be adjusted to a lower value.
CAUTION: Caution should be used when changing the hysterisis voltage to a lower value, as it could induce
start-up oscillations.
Any change in the hysterisis voltage requires both RHYS and RTHD resistors be in place. Adding RHYS alone does
not have the desired effect. The value for RHYS must first be calculated using Equation 5, and then be used to Equation 6 determines the value of RTHD required to adjust VTHD to a new value. The default value is 7.5 V, and it may only be adjusted to a higher value. If the hysterisis value has been adjusted, then a value for RTHD must also
be calculated. (This is irrespective of whether VTHD is being adjusted.) If there has been no adjustment for the
hystersis voltage, the term 1/RHYS in Equation 6, may be assigned the value, 0. Table 7 shows a matrix of standard resistor values for RHYS and RTHD, for different options of the on-threshold (VTHD) and hysterisis (VHYS) voltages. For most applications, only the on-threshold voltage should need to be
adjusted. In this case select only a value for RTHD from far right-hand column.
The hysterisis should only be adjusted if there is a specific requirement to independently adjust the off-threshold,
separately from the on-threshold voltage. In this case, a value for both RHYS and RTHD must be selected from
Table 7. This is irrespective of whether the on-threshold voltage is being adjusted.
