7.3.9 Remote Sense Function

The device supports differential remote sense function for accurate output regulation. In multi-phase configuration, FB1 and GOSNS pins are used for remote sensing purpose. If feedback resistors are required for output voltage programming, the FB1 pin must be connected to the mid-point of the resistor divider. Additionally, the GOSNS pin must always be connected to the load return. If feedback resistors are not required, the FB1 pin must be connected to the positive sensing point of the load. Additionally, the GOSNS pin must always be connected to the load return. The FB1 and GOSNS pins are extremely high-impedance input terminals of the true differential remote sense amplifier. The feedback resistor divider must use resistor values much less than 100 kΩ to reduce susceptibility to noise. A simple rule of thumb is to use a 10-kΩ lower divider resistor and then size the upper resistor to achieve the desired ratio.
