EP
Switching supply driver output. Connect to the base or gate of the external power NPN or
n-channel MOSFET. See PAC User Guide and application notes.
DRM
Exposed pad. Must be connected to VSS in a star ground configuration. Connect to a large
PCB copper area for power dissipation heat sinking.

Internally generated 1.8V core power supply. Connect a 2.2μF or higher value ceramic
capacitor from VCC18 to VSSA. See Figure 9-1. Power Supply Bypass Capacitor Routing

Internally generated 3.3V power supply. Connect a 2.2μF or higher value ceramic capacitor
from VCC33 to VSSA. See PCB layout note below.
Internally generated digital I/O power supply. Connect a 4.7μF or higher value ceramic
capacitor from VCCIO to VSSA. See Figure 9-1. Power Supply Bypass Capacitor Routing
below.
46
Switching supply controller supply input. Connect a 1μF or higher value ceramic capacitor,
or a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10μF or higher electrolytic capacitor from
VHM to VSSP. This pin requires good capacitive bypassing to VSSP, so the ceramic capacitor
must be connected with a shorter than 10mm trace from the pin. See Figure 9-1. Power
Supply Bypass Capacitor Routing below.
VHM

Power
Main power supply. Provides power to the power drivers as well as voltage feedback path
for the switching supply. Connect a properly sized supply bypass capacitor in parallel with
a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor from VP pin to VSS for voltage loop stabilization. This pin
requires good capacitive bypassing to VSS, so the ceramic capacitor must be connected with
a shorter than 10mm trace from the pin. See See Figure 9-1. Power Supply Bypass
Capacitor Routing below.
