is calculated using one of the
equations given in Figure 32.
The TPS743xx features a track pin that allows the
output to track an external supply at start-up. While

disable the master supply until
the input voltage is above 3.52V (typical).
If the TRACK pin is not needed it should be
connected to V
IN
. Configured in this way, the device
starts up typically within 40ms, which may result in
large inrush current that could cause the input supply
to droop. If soft-start is needed, consider the
TPS742xx or TPS744xx devices.
NOTE: When V

and V

are present and V
IN
is
not supplied, this device outputs approximately 50mA
of current from OUT. Although this condition will not
cause any damage to the device, the output current
may charge up the OUT node if total resistance
between OUT and GND (including external feedback
resistors) is greater than 10kΩ.
