PIN FUNCTIONS

Pin #

Name

Description

6

POK

4, 7

IN

Input Supply. A decoupling capacitor to ground is required close to these pins to reduce

switching spikes.

3, 8

SW

Switch Node Connection to the Inductor. These pins connect to the internal high and low-

side power MOSFET switches. All SW pins must be connected together externally.

2, 9

GND

Ground. Connect these pins with larger copper areas to the negative terminals of the input

and output capacitors.

5

BS

Bootstrap. A capacitor between this pin and SW provides a floating supply for the high-side

gate driver.

1

FB

Feedback. This is the input to the error amplifier. An external resistive divider connects this

pin between the output and GND. The voltage on the FB pin to the internal 0.8V reference

to set the regulation voltage.

10

EN/SYNC

Enable and Frequency Synchronization Input Pin. Forcing this pin below 0.4V shuts down

the part. Forcing this pin above 1.6V turns on the part. Applying a 1MHz to 2MHz clock

signal to this pin synchronizes the internal oscillator frequency to the external clock.
