Simply by putting a jumper to connect Pin1 and 2 of J3, a 90-A step load is created by three 50-mΩ resistors placed on the board. The slew rates of the transient are 200 A/µs for the load step-down and 160 A/µs for the load step-up. The transient response is shown in Figure 6 as the load is stepped from 10 to 100 A.

SLUU195 − June 2004 6.5 Start up with Pre-Biased Output In synchronous buck converter, the bottom FET discharges the pre-biased output during start-up. To avoid this, a comparator U9 and surround components are used to pull the SYNC pin of the drivers low, which keeps the bottom FET off during startup. So the output can rise smoothly. After the SS pin comes up, SYNC is pulled up high and enable the bottom FET’s driving signal. The converter goes back to normal synchronization mode. This function
