PRODUCTION DATA
This is the output of a power MOSFET switch connected directly to the input voltage. The switch provides energy to an inductor, an output capacitor, and the load circuitry under control of an internal pulse-width-modulator (PWM). The PWM controller is internally clocked by a fixed 260-kHz oscillator. In a standard step-down application, the duty cycle (Time ON/Time OFF) of the power switch is proportional to the ratio of the power supply output voltage to the input voltage. The voltage on pin 1 switches between VIN (switch ON) and below ground by the voltage drop of the external Schottky diode (switch OFF).
