(SW1 and CH2) -> CH1 -> CH4 -> CH3
are completed, SW1 is on. The OK134 pin is slowly pulled
low and controlled with soft start to suppress the inrush
current. VOUT1 is used for SW1 soft start and under
voltage protection. If SW1 is not used, connect a resistor
to VOUT1 (Refer to Typical Application Circuit for Li-ion).
SW5
SW5 is an internal switch enabled by EN5 and functions
as a load disconnection for CH5. This switch features soft
start, Powe On Sequence, over voltage (for SW5I) and
under voltage (for SW5O) protection functions.
Sequence setting is decided by “SEQ” pin.Please note
that the logic state can not be changed during operation.
SEQ = High
The Power On Sequence is :
While EN134 goes high, CH1 will be turned on to wait
for the completion of CH1's soft start.
After that, CH3 will be turned on to wait for the completion
of CH3's soft start.
And then, CH4 will be turned on to wait for the completion
