Pin Descriptions

PIN DESCRIPTION
NO. NAME
1,2 SW Output switch. Connects to the inductor, catch diode, and bootstrap capacitor.
3 BOOST Boost voltage that drives the internal NMOS control switch. A bootstrap capacitor is connected between the BOOST and SW pins.
4 EN Enable control input. Logic high enables operation. Do not allow this pin to float or be greater than VIN + 0.3 V.
5 SYNC Frequency synchronization input. Drive this pin with an external clock or pulse train. Ground it to use the internal clock.
6 FB Feedback pin. Connect FB to the external resistor divider to set output voltage.
7 GND Signal and Power Ground pin. Place the bottom resistor of the feedback network as close as possible to this pin for accurate regulation.
8 AVIN Supply voltage for the control circuitry.
9,10 PVIN Supply voltage for output power stage. Connect a bypass capacitor to this pin.
DAP GND Signal / Power Ground and thermal connection. Tie this directly to GND (pin 7). See regarding optimum thermal layout.
