Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Compensation | output | Error Amplifier output made available for loop compensation. |
| 2 | Voltage Feedback | input | Inverting input of the Error Amplifier, normally connected to the switching power supply output through a resistor divider (input range -0.3 to +5.5 V). |
| 3 | Current Sense | input | Receives a voltage proportional to inductor current, which the PWM uses to terminate output switch conduction (input range -0.3 to +5.5 V). |
| 4 | RT/CT | passive | Oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are set by resistor RT to Vref and capacitor CT to ground, with operation to 500 kHz possible. |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Combined control circuitry and power ground. |
| 6 | Output | output | Totem pole output that directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET, sourcing and sinking peak currents up to 1.0 A. |
| 7 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply of the control IC (maximum 30 V). |
| 8 | Vref | power_out | 5.0 V reference output that provides charging current for capacitor CT through resistor RT. |
