Description

1

EN

Power Supply Enable Input. Pulling this pin to GND disables the PWM outputs and pulls the PWRGD output low.

2

PWRGD

Power-Good Output. Open-drain output that signals when the output voltage is outside of the proper

operating range.

3

FBRTN

Feedback Return. VID DAC and error amplifier reference for remote sensing of the output voltage.

4

FB

Feedback Input. Error amplifier input for remote sensing of the output voltage. An external resistor between

this pin and the output voltage sets the no load offset point.

5

COMP

Error Amplifier Output and Compensation Point.

6

SS

Soft Start Delay Setting Input. An external capacitor connected between this pin and GND sets the soft start

ramp-up time and the VID on-the-fly slew rate.

7

DELAY

Delay Timer Setting Input. An external capacitor connected between this pin and GND sets the overcurrent

latch-off delay time, EN delay time, and PWRGD delay time.

8

VRM_OFF

VRM_OFF Signal. Open-drain output that asserts when the temperature at the monitoring point connected to

TTSENSE exceeds the VRM_OFF threshold.

9

VRMHOT

Open-drain output that signals when the temperature at the monitoring point connected to TTSENSE exceeds

the maximum operating temperature. For example, this can be connected to the PROCHOT# (a PC system

signal) output from the CPU.

10

TTSENSE

VR Hot Thermal Throttling Sense Input. An NTC thermistor between this pin and GND is used to remotely sense

the temperature at the desired thermal monitoring point.

11

ILIMIT

Current Limit Setpoint. An external resistor from this pin to GND sets the current limit threshold of the

converter.

12

RT

Frequency Setting Resistor Input. An external resistor connected between this pin and GND sets the oscillator

frequency of the device.

13

RAMPADJ

PWM Ramp Current Input. An external resistor from the converter input voltage to this pin sets the internal

PWM ramp.

14

LLSET

Output Load Line Programming Input. This pin can be directly connected to CSCOMP, or it can be connected to

the center point of a resistor divider between CSCOMP and CSREF. Connecting LLSET to CSREF disables

positioning.

15

CSREF

Current Sense Reference Voltage Input. The voltage on this pin is used as the reference for the current sense

amplifier and the power-good and crowbar functions. This pin should be connected to the common point of

the output inductors.

16

CSSUM

Current Sense Summing Node. External resistors from each switch node to this pin sum the average inductor

currents together to measure the total output current.

17

CSCOMP

Current Sense Compensation Point. A resistor and capacitor from this pin to CSSUM determines the gain of the

current sense amplifier and the positioning loop response time.

18

GND

Ground. All internal biasing and the logic output signals of the device are referenced to this ground.
