I have measured voltage values on IC FA5531 at voltage values in operating range and below threshold. Including the situation I changed the resistor value of the bridge for the voltage divider for pin 3- VDET.
The final measurement in the table, when R7-8 was changed, VDET = 0.76V> 0.65V but Vo = 96.3V showed that the Boost circuit was not running.
I have suspected pin 12 (On / OFF) is overridden by the connection to IC M51957B. I attached datasheet M51957B, then I will go and re-draw the 12 pin circuit connected to it so you can help me find the problem.
