Startup failures occur when the output capacitance value is too great. The output capacitance is charged with electric charge during a soft start time period, but if the output capacitance is too large, charging may not be completed during the soft start time period, so that the output voltage has not risen sufficiently, and if an overcurrent or short-circuit protection condition applies, these may be actuated to result in startup failure.
