DIP Switch Descriptions

The CFG0 pin defines the dead time and the ATRK/DTRK pin 20μA current source for VOUT programming.

The CFG1 pin setting defines the VOUT Over Voltage Protection level, Clock Dithering, the 120% input current limit protection (ICL_latch) operation, and the power good pin behavior.

The CFG2 pin defines the VOUT Over Voltage Protection level, if the device uses the internal clock generator or an external clock applied at the SYNCIN pin. It configures as well if the device is a single device or part of a dual device configuration, the SYNCIN and SYNCOUT pin is enabled/disabled accordingly. During clock synchronization, the clock dither function is disabled.

S1 through S6 are 8-bit DIP switches.

  • S1 and S2 are for CFG0
    • S1-postion 1 selects Level 1, …, S1-postion 8 selects Level 8
    • S2-postion 1 selects Level 9, …, S2-postion 8 selects Level 16
  • S3 and S4 are for CFG1
    • S3-postion 1 selects Level 1, …, S3-postion 8 selects Level 8
    • S4-postion 1 selects Level 9, …, S4-postion 8 selects Level 16
  • S5 and S6 are for CFG2
    • S5-postion 1 selects Level 1, …, S5-postion 8 selects Level 8
    • S6-postion 1 selects Level 9, …, S6-postion 8 selects Level 16

Select position 3 for S1 by default. This selects Level 3 for CFG0:

  • Dead time = 50ns
  • 20μA ATRK current source = on

Select position 2 for S4 by default. This selects Level 10 for CFG1:

  • OVP bit 0 = 1
  • DRSS = disabled
  • ICL_latch = disabled
  • PGOODOVP_enable = disabled

Select position 1 for S5 by default. This selects Level 1 for CFG2:

  • OVP bit 1 = 0
  • Single chip
  • Phase shift = 180°
  • SYNCIN = off
  • SYNCOUT = off

OVP bit 1 = 0 and OVP bit 0 = 1 select OVP level to 50V.

Note: The EVM can be damaged if lower than 50ns dead time is selected or operate with Vout>50V. Select OVP level no more than 50V.
