Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST | output | The RST open collector output is driven low when the output voltage is out of regulation and is released after an adjustable DELAY time once the output voltage is over the active delay threshold. |
| 2 | VCC | power_out | Connect a ceramic capacitor (≥ 470 nF) to filter the internal voltage reference; this pin supplies the embedded analog circuitry. |
| 3 | SS/INH | passive | An open collector stage can disable the device by clamping this pin to GND (INH mode), and an internal current generator (4 A typ.) charges the external capacitor to implement the soft-start. |
| 4 | SYNCH/ISKP | input | This pin selects Master/Slave synchronization in LNM and skip current level in LCM, and in LNM it should be left floating when not used. |
| 5 | FSW | input | A pull-up resistor (E24 series only) to VCC or pull-down to GND selects the switching frequency, with pinstrapping active only before the soft-start phase. |
| 6 | MLF | input | A pull-up resistor (E24 series only) to VCC or pull-down to GND selects the low noise mode/low consumption mode and the active RST threshold, with pinstrapping active only before the soft-start phase. |
| 7 | COMP | output | This is the output of the error amplifier, to which the designed compensation network is connected. |
| 8 | DELAY | passive | An external capacitor connected at this pin sets the time DELAY to assert the rising edge of the RST open collector output after the output voltage is over the reset threshold; if left floating, RST acts like a Power Good. |
| 9 | VOUT | input | This pin is the output voltage sensing input. |
| 10 | SGND | power_in | This is the signal GND and must be connected to the exposed pad. |
| 11 | PGND | power_in | This is a power GND pin and must be connected to the exposed pad. |
| 12 | PGND | power_in | This is a power GND pin and must be connected to the exposed pad. |
| 13 | LX | output | This is the switching node, with absolute maximum voltage of -0.3 V to VIN + 0.3 V. |
| 14 | LX | output | This is the switching node, with absolute maximum voltage of -0.3 V to VIN + 0.3 V. |
| 15 | VIN | power_in | This is the DC input voltage pin, with an operating input voltage range of 4 V to 38 V. |
| 16 | VBIAS | power_in | This pin is typically connected to the regulated output voltage to supply part of the analog circuitry for better light-load efficiency, and it should be connected to GND if not used. |
| 17 | EP | passive | Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table). |
