DETAILED DESCRIPTION (continued)
Sequencing
Many of the common power supply sequencing methods can be implemented using the SS/TR, EN and PWRGD
pins. The sequential method can be implemented using an open drain output of a power on reset pin of another
device. The sequential method is illustrated in Figure 31 using two TPS54060 devices. The power good is
coupled to the EN pin on the TPS54060 which will enable the second power supply once the primary supply
reaches regulation. If needed, a 1nF ceramic capacitor on the EN pin of the second power supply will provide a
1ms start up delay. Figure 32 shows the results of Figure 31.
