PIN TYPE(1) DESCRIPTION
NAME TO-263, TO-220 VSON
Switch output 1 12, 13, 14 O Source pin of the internal high-side FET. This is a switching node. Attached this pin to an inductor and the cathode of the external diode.
Input 2 2, 3 I Supply input pin to collector pin of high-side FET. Connect to power supply and input bypass capacitors CIN. Path from VIN pin to high frequency bypass CIN and GND must be as short as possible.
CB 3 4 I Boot-strap capacitor connection for high-side driver. Connect a high-quality 100-nF capacitor from CB to VSW Pin.
GND 4 9 Power ground pins. Connect to system ground. Ground pins of CIN and COUT. Path to CIN must be as short as possible.
FB 6 7 I Feedback sense input pin. Connect to the midpoint of feedback divider to set VOUT for ADJ version or connect this pin directly to the output capacitor for a fixed output version.
ON/ OFF 7 8 I Enable input to the voltage regulator. High = ON and low = OFF. Pull this pin high or float to enable the regulator.
NC 5 1, 5, 6, 10, 11 No connect pins
DAP All DAP, tab, and paddle connections are at ground potential and must be connected to system ground to allow for correct thermal and electrical performance.
I = input, O = output
