8.3.6 Switching Frequency Selection

During device initialization, a resistor-to-digital converter in the device determines the state of the FSEL pin and sets the switching frequency of the DC/DC converter according to Table 8-2.

Table 8-2 Switching Frequency Options
Resistor at FSEL (1%) Switching Frequency
6.2 kΩ to GND 1.5 MHz
Short to GND 2.25 MHz
Short to VIN 2.5 MHz
47 kΩ to VIN 3 MHz

The following figure shows a simplified block diagram of the R2D converter used to detect the state of the FSEL pin (an identical circuit detects the state of the VSEL pin – see Output Voltage Setpoint).

Figure 8-10 FSEL R2D Converter Functional Block Diagram
Detection of the state of the FSEL pin works as follows:

To detect the most significant bit (MSB), the circuit opens S1 and S2, and the input buffer detects if a high or a low level is connected to the FSEL pin.

To detect the least significant bit (LSB):

  • If the MSB is 0, the circuit closes S1. If the input buffer detects a high level, the LSB = 1; if the circuit detects a low level, the LSB = 0.
  • If the MSB is 1, the circuit closes S2. If the input buffer detects a low level, the LSB = 0; if the circuit detects a high level, the LSB = 1.

The propagation delay of the current-sensing comparator limits the minimum on-time of the device. In practice, this means that the maximum switching frequency the device can support decreases with small duty cycles. Figure 6-5 shows the practical operating range of the device with 3.3-V and 5-V supplies.
