SWITCHING FREQUENCY SELECTION
The switching frequency defaults to a value of 1.0 MHz
when the FREQ pin is grounded, and 200 KHz when the
FREQ pin is connected to VDDI. Intermediate switching
frequencies can be obtained by connecting an external
resistor divider to the FREQ pin. The table below shows the
resulting switching frequency versus FREQ pin voltage.
