PIN FUNCTIONS (SSOP/QFN)
PGOOD (Pin 1/Pin 30): Open-Drain Logic Output. PGOOD
is pulled to ground when the output voltage is not within
7.5% of the regulation point.
–
+
voltage and built-in offsets between SENSE and SENSE
pins, in conjunction with R
threshold.
, set the current trip
SENSE
–
SS (Pin 2/Pin 31): Soft-start reduces the input power
sources’ surge currents by gradually increasing the
controller’s current limit. A minimum value of 6.8nF is
recommended on this pin.
SENSE (Pin 4/Pin 2): The (–) Input to the Current Sense
and Reverse Current Detect Comparators.
I
(Pin 5/Pin 3): Current Control Threshold and Error
TH
Amplifier Compensation Point. The current comparator
threshold increases with this control voltage. The voltage
ranges from 0V to 2.4V.

SENSE (Pin 3/Pin 1): The (+) Input to the Current Sense
and Reverse Current Detect Comparators. The I pin
