This is a design circuit for Power Sequencer offers the easiest method to control power up and power down of multiple power supplies (switchers or linear regulators). By staggering the startup sequence, it is possible to avoid latch conditions or large in-rush currents that can affect the reliability of the system. This is the figure of the circuit;
Available in a SOT23-6 package, the Power Sequencer contains a precision enable pin and three open drain output flags. Upon enabling the LM3880 the three output flags will sequentially release, after individual time delays, permitting the connected power supplies to startup. The output flags will follow a reverse sequence during power down to avoid latch conditions. EPROM capability allows every delay and sequence to be fully adjustable. Contact National Semiconductor if a non-standard configuration is required.
