PIN FUNCTIONS (QFN/TSSOP)
V2P5 (Pin 18/Pin 21): 2.5V Regulator Output. Outputs a
regulated2.5Vsupplyvoltagecapableofsupplying10mA.
Bypass this pin with a minimum of 1μF low ESR ceramic
ITH1 (Pin 26/Pin 1): Channel 1 Error Amplifier Output and
Switching Regulator Compensation Pin. Connect this pin
to appropriate external components to compensate the
regulator loop frequency response. Connect this pin to
capacitor. Tie this pin to INTV when this output is not

being used in the application.
INTV to use the default internal compensation.

INTV (Pin 19/Pin 22): Internal 3.3V Regulator Output.
TRACKSS1 (Pin 27/Pin 2): Output Tracking and Soft-Start
Input Pin for Channel 1. Forcing a voltage below 0.6V on
this pin bypasses the internal reference input to the error
amplifier. TheLTC3633AwillservotheFBpintotheTRACK
voltage. Above 0.6V, the tracking function stops and the
internal reference resumes control of the error amplifier.

Theinternalpowerdriversandcontrolcircuitsarepowered
from this voltage. The internal regulator is disabled when
both channel 1 and channel 2 are disabled with the RUN1/
RUN2 inputs. Decouple this pin to power ground with a
minimum of 1μF low ESR ceramic capacitor.
An internal 1.4μA pull up current from INTV allows a

BOOST1 (Pin 20/Pin 23): Boosted Floating Driver Supply
for Channel 1. The (+) terminal of the bootstrap capacitor
connects to this pin while the (–) terminal connects to
the SW pin. The normal operation voltage swing of this
soft-start function to be implemented by connecting a
capacitor between this pin and SGND.

SW1 (Pins 23,24/Pins 26, 27): Channel 1 Switch Node
should be tied to this pin with a low impedance connec-
tion. This pin must be soldered to the PCB to provide low
impedance electrical contact to power ground and good
thermal contact to the PCB.
Connection to External Inductor. Voltage swing of SW is
from a diode voltage drop below ground to V .

nel 1. This pin sets the voltage trip point for the on-time
comparator. Tying this pin to the regulated output voltage
makes the on-time proportional to V
