APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Output Capacitors Soft-Start and Latchoff with the RUN/SS pin
The LTM4602 is designed for low output voltage ripple. The The RUN/SS pin provides a means to shut down the bulk output capacitors COUT is chosen with low enough LTM4602 as well as a timer for soft-start and overcurrent effective series resistance (ESR) to meet the output voltage latchoff.
