3. Shutdown pin (ON/OFF pin)
This pin starts and stops the regulator.
When the ON/OFF pin is set to the shutdown level, the operation of all internal circuits stops, and the built-
in P-channel MOS FET output transistor between the VIN pin and VOUT pin is turned off to substantially
reduce the current consumption. The VOUT pin becomes the V
SS
level due to the internally divided
resistance of several hundreds kΩ between the VOUT pin and VSS pin.
The structure of the ON/OFF pin is as shown in Figure 13. Since the ON/OFF pin is neither pulled down
nor pulled up internally, do not use it in the floating state. In addition, note that the current consumption
increases if a voltage of 0.3 V to V
IN
− 0.3 V is applied to the ON/OFF pin. When the ON/OFF pin is not
used, connect it to the VSS pin if the logic type is “A” and to the VIN pin if it is “B”.
