Figure 21. Minimum Battery Detector that Disconnects the Load Via the SHDN Pin of the LP3982
Resistor value for V

and V

are determined as follows:

(The application of Figure 21 used a G

The above procedure assumes a rail-to-rail output comparator. Essentially, R
2
is in parallel with R
1
prior to
reaching the lower threshold, then R
2
becomes parallel with R
3
for the upper threshold. Note that the application
requires rail-to-rail input as well.
The resistor values shown in Figure 21 are the closest practical to calculated values.
Fast Start-Up
The LP3982 provides fast start-up time for better system efficiency. The start-up speed is maintained when using
the optional noise bypass capacitor. An internal 500 μA current source charges the capacitor until it reaches
about 90% of its final value.
