PGOOD1
SCFG
Power-Good Output (Open Drain) for Channel 1. A pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ is recommended.
Synchronization Configuration Input. The SCFG pin configures the SYNC pin as an input or an output. Connect
SCFG to INTVCC to configure SYNC as an output. Connecting a pull-down resistor to GND configures SYNC as an
input with various phase shift degrees.
3
SYNC
Synchronization. This pin can be configured as an input or an output. When configured as an output, it provides a
clock at the switching frequency. When configured as an input, this pin accepts an external clock to which the
regulators are synchronized. The phase shift is configured by SCFG. Note that when SYNC is configured as an input,
the PFM mode is disabled and the device works in continuous conduction mode (CCM) only.

GND
INTVCC
Analog Ground. Connect to the ground plane.
Internal 5 V Regulator Output. The IC control circuits are powered from this voltage. Place a 1 μF ceramic capacitor
between INTVCC and GND.

7
RT
MODE
Connect a resistor between RT and GND to program the switching frequency from 250 kHz to 1.2 MHz.
Mode Selection. When this pin is connected to INTVCC, the PFM mode is disabled and the regulator works only in
CCM. When this pin is connected to ground, the PFM mode is enabled. If the low-side device is a diode, the MODE
pin must be connected to ground.

PGOOD2
FB2
Power-Good Output (Open Drain) for Channel 2. A pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ is recommended.
Feedback Voltage Sense Input for Channel 2. Connect FB2 to a resistor divider from the Channel 2 output voltage,
V
OUT2. Connect FB2 to INTVCC for parallel applications.
10
COMP2
SS2
Error Amplifier Output for Channel 2. Connect an RC network from COMP2 to GND. Connect COMP1 and COMP2
together for parallel applications.
Soft Start Control for Channel 2. To program the soft start time, connect a capacitor from SS2 to GND. For parallel
applications, SS2 remains open.

12
TRK2
EN2
Tracking Input for Channel 2. To track a master voltage, connect this pin to a resistor divider from the master
voltage. If the tracking function is not used, connect TRK2 to INTVCC.
Enable Pin for Channel 2. An external resistor divider can be used to set the turn-on threshold. When not using the
enable pin, connect EN2 to PVIN2.

PVIN2
Power Input for Channel 2. Connect PVIN2 to the input power source, and connect a bypass capacitor between
PVIN2 and ground.

Low-Side Gate Driver Output for Channel 1. Connect a resistor between DL1 and PGND to program the current-
limit threshold of Channel 1.
