The CFG0-pin defines the dead time and
the ATRK/DTRK-pin 20μA current. The levels shown in Table 6-1 are selected
by the specified resistors in the Specifications section. When VOUT is programmed by the resistor, the 20μA ATRK-pin
current must be on, for voltage tracking must be off.

The CFG1-pin setting defines the
VOUT overvoltage protection level, Clock Dithering, the 120% input
current limit protection (ICL_latch) operation, and the power-good pin
behavior.
OVP, Spread Spectrum, Peak Current Limit
Latch, Power-Good Pin Behavior: |
OVP bit 0: |
OVP bit 0 and 1 set the VOUT overvoltage protection
level. [00] = 64V, [01] = 50V, [10]= 35V or [11] = 28.5V. |
Clock Dithering: |
Enables dual random spread spectrum (DRSS) clock dithering or
disables clock dithering. |
ICL_latch: |
When ICL_latch is enabled and the peak current limit
is exceeded by 20% the device goes to the Shutdown State (turns off and is latched). If ICL_latch is disabled
the device stays active and tries to limit the inductor current at
peak current limit. |
PGOODOVP_enable: |
When PGOODOVP_enable is enabled the PGOOD-pin is
pulled low for VOUT above OVP (Overvoltage Protection) or
below the UV (Undervoltage) threshold. If PGOODOVP_enable
is disabled the PGOOD-pin is only pulled low when VOUT is
below UV (Undervoltage) threshold. |

The CFG2-pin defines the
VOUT overvoltage protection level, if the device uses the internal
clock generator or an external clock applied at the SYNCIN-pin. The CFG2-pin
configures as well if the device is a single device or part of a dual device
configuration, the SYNCIN and SYNCOUT-pin is enabled, disabled accordingly. During
clock synchronization, the clock dither function is disabled.
OVP,
internal / external clock, Single / Dualchip: |
OVP bit 1: |
OVP bit 0 and 1 set the VOUT overvoltage protection
level. [00] = 64V, [01] = 50V, [10]= 35V or [11] = 28.5V. |
Single:Internal
clock: |
Device is
used standalone using the internal oscillator. |
Single
ext. clock: |
Device is
used standalone using an external clock signal applied at SYNCIN
or the internal oscillator when no clock is
applied.. |
Primary: |
Device is used as primary device acting as a controller in a
dual device configuration using the internal oscillator. The
phase shift of the 2nd phase is either optimized for
3-phase (240° shift to 1st phase) or 4-phase (180°
shift to 1st phase) operation. |
Primary ext. clock: |
Device is used as primary device acting as a controller in a
dual device configuration using an external clock signal applied
at SYNCIN-pin. The phase shift is either optimized for 3-phase
(240° shift to 1st phase) or 4-phase (180° shift to
1st phase) operation. |
Secondary: |
Device is used as secondary device syncing the clock to the
SYNCIN-pin signal. |
Device 2nd Phase Phase Shift,
SYNCIN, SYNCOUT, Clock Dithering: |
Phase Shift of the Device 2nd Phase: |
Phase shift for the 2nd phase of the single, primary
or secondary device as configured in the Single / Dualchip
column. |
SYNCIN: |
Defines if the clock syncing function at the SYNCIN-pin is active
(on) or disabled (off). The device is only syncing to an external
clock applied to the SYNCIN-pin when SYNCIN is active. |
Clock Dithering: |
In case the internal oscillator is used the clock dithering is
set according to the CFG1-pin setting Clock Dithering Mode. When an
external clock is used the clock dithering function is disabled
ignoring the CFG1-pin setting. |
