switch is physically located far from the LTC2954 PB pin,
parasitic capacitances may couple onto the high imped-
ance PB input. Additionally, parasitic series inductance
may cause unpredictable ringing at the PB pin. Placing a
5.1k resistor from the PB pin to the push button switch
would mitigate parasitic inductance problems. Placing a
0.1µF capacitor on the PB pin would lessen the impact of
parasitic capacitive coupling.
High Voltage Pins
The V , PB and EN/EN pins can operate at voltages up to
IN
26.4V. PB can, additionally, operate below ground (–6V)

TYPICAL APPLICATIO S
Voltage Monitoring with KILL Input
The DC/DC converter shown has an internal pull-up cur-
rent on its SHDN pin. A pull-up resistor on EN is thus not
needed.
The KILL pin can be used as a voltage monitor. Figure
5 shows an application where the KILL pin has a dual
function. It is driven by a low leakage open drain output
of the µP. It is also connected to a resistive divider that
Operation Without µP
Figure 6 shows how to connect the KILL pin when there
is no circuitry available to drive it. The minimum pulse
width detected is 30µs. If there are glitches on the resis-
tor pull-up voltage that are wider than 30µs and transition
below 0.6V, then an appropriate bypass capacitor should
monitors battery voltage (V ). When the battery voltage
IN
falls below the set value, the voltage at the KILL pin falls
below 0.6V and the EN pin is quickly pulled low. Note that
the resistor values should be as large as possible, but
small enough to keep leakage currents from tripping the
0.6V KILL comparator.
