ADVANCE INFORMATION
The switching frequency of 100kHz to 2.2MHz is set by the RT resistor connected between the RT-pin and AGND. The RT resistor must be selected between 12kΩ and 350kΩ according to Equation 2. If configured to use an external clock the device can synchronize the switching frequency to an external clock applied at the SYNCIN-pin. For single device configuration within ±50% of the set frequency by the RT-pin, when dual device is used within ±25%. The internal clock is synchronized at the rising edge of the external clock signal applied at the SYNCIN-pin. The CFG1-pin Spread Spectrum setting is ignored during frequency synchronization and clock dithering is disabled.
The device always starts with the internal clock and starts synchronizing to an applied external clock during the START PHASE 1 and 2 and the ACTIVE state (see Functional State Diagram). The device synchronizes to the external clock as soon as the clock is applied and switches back to the internal clock in case the external clock stops.
