Description
Input voltage and sense node for UVLO, OVLO and feed forward compensation.
Input side switching node and ZVS sense node for power switches.
Output side switching node and ZVS sense node for power switches.
Output voltage and sense node for power switches, VOUT feed forward compensation, VOUT_OV
and internal signals.
Internal 5.1V supply for gate drivers and internal logic. May be used as reference or low power bias supply
for up to 2mA. Must be impedance limited by the user.
Fault & Power Good indicator. PGD pulls low when the regulator is not operating or if EAIN is less
than 1.4V.
Synchronization output. Outputs a high signal for ½ of the programmed switching period at the beginning
of each switching cycle, for synchronization of other regulators.
Synchronization input. When a falling edge synchronization pulse is detected, the PI3740-00 will delay
the start of the next switching cycle until the next falling edge sync pulse arrives, up to a maximum delay
of two times the programmed switching period. If the next pulse does not arrive within two times the
programmed switching period, the controller will leave sync mode and start a switching cycle automatically.
Connect to SGND when not in use.
For factory use only. Connect to SGND or leave floating in application.
For factory use only. Connect to SGND or leave floating in application.
For factory use only. Connect to SGND in application.
For factory use only. Connect to SGND in application.
Regulator Enable control. Asserted high or left floating – regulator enabled;
Asserted low, regulator output disabled.
Soft-start and track input. An external capacitor must be connected between TRK pin and SGND to
decrease the rate of output rise during soft-start. Recommended value is 47nF for 1.6ms rise.
Input for constant current lighting amplifier. Connect to SGND if not in use.
Error amp compensation dominant pole. Connect a capacitor of 4700pF by default between COMP and
SGND to set the control loop dominant pole.
General purpose amplifier inverting input.
General purpose amplifier non-inverting input.
General Purpose amplifier output. When unused connect VDIFF to VSN and VSP to SGND.
Error amplifier inverting input and sense for PGD. Connect by resistive divider to the output.
Error amp output: External connection for additional compensation and current sharing. Add 56pF
capacitor from EAO to SGND.
High side current sense amplifier output.
High side current sense amplifier negative input.
High side current sense amplifier positive input.
Signal ground. Internal logic and analog ground for the regulator. SGND and PGND are star connected
within the regulator package.
Power ground. VIN, VOUT, VS1 and VS2 power returns. SGND and PGND are star connected within the
regulator package.
