VIN
Ground return of the regulator; connected to the source of the low-side synchronous NMOS power FET
Ground return of the regulator; connected to the source of the low-side synchronous NMOS power FET
Power supply input of the regulator; connected to the drain of the high-side NMOS power FET
STP
Auxilliary supply tracking positive input; tied to regulator output to synchronize start up with a second supply; leave open
for stand alone operation; 2µA internal pull down current

Inductor drive pin; high current output whose average voltage equals the regulator output voltage
Inductor drive pin; high current output whose average voltage equals the regulator output voltage
Positive supply of high-side driver; boot strapped from VDRV to LX with an external 0.22µF capacitor
Positive supply of low-side driver and input voltage for high side boot strap

PG
Power good window comparator output; logic 1 when regulator output is within ±10% of target output voltage
FB
Voltage feedback input; connected to external resistor divider between VOUT and SGND; a 125nA pull-up current forces
VOUT to SGND in the event that FB is floating

Chip enable, active high; a 2µA internal pull up current enables the device if the pin is left open; a capacitor can be added
at this pin to delay the start of converter
