I/O |
Floating bootstrap supply pin for the upper gate drive. Connect the bootstrap capacitor between this pin and the Phase pin. The bootstrap capacitor provides the charge to turn on the upper MOSFET. |
EN/PG |
7 |
7 |
I/O |
Enable/power good input/output pin with 1-MΩ impedance. Connect this pin to High to enable and Low to disable the device. When disabled, the device draws less than 350-μA bias current. If the VDD is below UVLO threshold or over temperature shutdown occurs, this pin is internally pulled low. |
GND |

– |
Ground pin. All signals are referenced to this node. |
LGATE |
5 |

O |
Lower gate drive sink and source output. Connect to the gate of the low-side power N-Channel MOSFET. |
PHASE |
8 |
8 |
I |
Connect this pin to the source of the upper MOSFET and the drain of the lower MOSFET. This pin provides a return path for the upper gate driver. |
PWM |
3 |
3 |
I |
The PWM signal is the control input for the driver. The PWM signal can enter three distinct states during operation, see the 3-state PWM Input section under DETAILED DESCRIPTION for further details. Connect this pin to the PWM output of the controller. |
Thermal pad |
|
Exposed die pad |
– |
Connect directly to the GND for better thermal performance and EMI. |
UGATE |
