Pin Function
Power Ground: Connect all pins to central ground point.
Switch (Output): Internal power MOSFET output switches.
PWM/Skip-Mode Control (Input): Logic-level input. Controls regulator
operating mode. Logic low enables PWM mode. Logic high enables skip
mode. Do not allow pin to float.
Error Flag (Output): Open-drain output. Active low when FB input is 10%
below the reference voltage (VREF).
Feedback (Input): Connect to output voltage divider resistors.
Compensation: Output of internal error amplifier. Connect capacitor or
series RC network to compensate the regulator control loop.
Signal Ground: Connect all pins to ground, PGND.
Frequency Synchronization (Input): Optional. Connect an external clock
signal to synchronize the oscillator. Leading edge of signal above 1.7V
terminates switching cycle. Connect to SGND if not used.
Internal 3.3V Bias Supply: Decouple with 0.01µF bypass capacitor to
SGND. Do not apply any external load.
Enable (Input): Logic high enables operation. Logic low shuts down
regulator. Do not allow pin to float.
Supply Voltage (Input): Requires bypass capacitor to PGND. Both pins
must be connected to VIN.
not internally connected.
