Pin Function
Feedback (Input): Input to the transconductance amplifier of the control loop. The FB pin is regulated to
0.8V. A resistor divider the output an FB is used to set the desired output voltage.
Power Good (Output): Open Drain Output. The PGOOD pin is externally tied with a resistor to VDD.
High output when V_OUT>90% nominal.
Enable (Input): A logic level control of the output. The EN pin is CMOS-compatible. Logic high = enable,
logic low = shutdown. In the off state, supply current of the device is greatly reduced (typically 5µA). The
EN pin should not be left open. Connect to VIN if sequencing is not required.
Supply Voltage: Input voltage for the internal +5V linear regulator. The VIN operating voltage range is
from 4.5V to 28V. A 0.1µF capacitor between VIN and the ground is required.
5V Internal Linear Regulator (Output): VDD is the external MOSFET gate drive supply voltage and an
internal supply bus for the IC. VDD is created by internal LDO from VIN. When VIN <+5.5V, VDD Should
be tied to VIN. A 2.2µF (minimum) ceramic capacitor from VDD to GND is recommended for clean
operation.
Low-Side Gate Drive (Output): High-current driver output for external low-side MOSFET. The DL driving
voltage swings from ground to VDD.
Power Ground. PGND is the ground path for the MIC2166 buck converter power stage. The PGND pin
connects to the sources of low-side N-Channel MOSFETs, the negative terminals of input capacitors,
and the negative terminals of output capacitors. The loop for the power ground should be as small as
possible and separate from the Signal ground (GND) loop.
High-Side Gate Drive (Output): High-current driver output for external high-side MOSFET. The DH
driving voltage is floating on the switch node voltage (SW). It swings from ground-to-VDD minus the
diode drop.
