PIN TYPE DESCRIPTION
NAME NO.
EN/UVLO

1

Analog Input Active High Enable for the device. A Resistor Divider on this pin from input supply to GND can be used to adjust the undervoltage lockout threshold. Do not leave floating. Refer to Section 8.3.2 for details.

OVCSEL

2

Analog Input Overvoltage clamp threshold select pin. Refer to Section 8.3.3 for details.

PG

3

Digital Output Power Good indication. This pin is an Open Drain signal which is asserted High when the internal power path is fully turned ON and PGTH input exceeds a certain threshold. Refer to Section 8.3.9 for more details.

PGTH

4

Analog Input Power Good Threshold. Refer to Section 8.3.9 for more details.

DVDT

7

Analog Output A capacitor from this pin to GND sets the output turn on slew rate. Leave this pin floating for the fastest turn on slew rate. Refer to Section 8.3.4.1 for details.

GND

8

Ground

This pin is the ground reference for all internal circuits and must be connected to system GND.

ILM

9

Analog Output This pin is a dual function pin used to limit and monitor the output current. An external resistor from this pin to GND sets the output current limit threshold during start-up as well as steady state. The pin voltage can also be used as analog output load current monitor signal. Do not leave floating. Refer to Section 8.3.4.2 for more details.

ITIMER

10

Analog Output A capacitor from this pin to GND sets the overcurrent blanking interval during which the output current can temporarily exceed set current limit (but lower than fast-trip threshold) before the device overcurrent response takes action. Leave this pin open for fastest response to overcurrent events. Refer to Section 8.3.4.2 for more details.
