Pin Functions

PINI/ODESCRIPTION
NUMBERNAME
1, 2SWPSwitching output of the regulator. Internally connected to both power MOSFETs. Connect to power inductor.
3BOOTPBoot-strap capacitor connection for high-side driver. Connect a high-quality 100nF to 470nF capacitor from BOOT to SW.
4VCCPInternal bias supply output for bypassing. Connect bypass capacitor from this pin to AGND. Do not connect external loading to this pin. Never short this pin to ground during operation.
5FBAFeedback input to regulator, connect the feedback resistor divider tap to this pin.
6RTAConnect a resistor RT from this pin to AGND to program switching frequency. Leave floating for 400-kHz default switching frequency.
7AGNDGAnalog ground pin. Ground reference for internal references and logic. Connect to system ground.
8EN/SYNCAEnable input to regulator. High=On, Low=Off. Can be connected to VIN. Do not float. Adjust the input under voltage lockout with two resistors. The internal oscillator can be synchronized to an external clock by coupling a positive pulse into this pin through a small coupling capacitor. See Section 7.3.4 for detail.
9, 10VINPInput supply voltage.
11NCN/ANot for use. Leave this pin floating.
12PGNDGPower ground pin, connected internally to the low side power FET. Connect to system ground, PAD, AGND, ground pins of CIN and COUT. Path to CIN must be as short as possible.
13PADGLow impedance connection to AGND. Connect to PGND on PCB. Major heat dissipation path of the die. Must be used for heat sinking to ground plane on PCB.
