(1) The software design must guarantee that CODESTART is applied before the PU transition from logic 0 to logic 1.
(2) The exact duration of tA depends on both PCF5079 and the application loop characteristics. The duration should be long enough to ensure that
VVCD, VVCG is below the PA conduction threshold. The contribution of PCF5079 is mainly due to the group delay of the low-pass filter on the VDAC
input (see Fig.11).
