PIN DESCRIPTIONS
PIN 1: OCSET - Current limit sense pin. Connect
a resistor R

from this pin to
the drain of the external
MOSFET. R

PIN 4: FB -
The error amplifier inverting
input pin. The FB pin and COMP
pin are used to compensate the
voltage-control feedback loop.
Ground pin.

detection
pin.
Connect the PHASE pin to
source of the external N-
MOSFET. This pin detects the
voltage
drop
across
the
MOSFET R
DS(ON)
for overcurrent
protection.
PIN 5: GND-
PIN 6: PHASE-
If FB pin voltage is sensed to be
below 50% of the internal
voltage reference VDAC, the
overcurrent comparator cycles
the soft-start function.
PIN 2: SD
- Shutdown pin. Connect this pin
to ground for shutdown.
PIN 7: UGATE- External MOSFET gate drive pin.
Connect this pin to gate of the
external MOSFET.
PIN 8: VCC
-The chip power supply pin.
Recommended supply voltage is
12V.
PIN 3: COMP - External compensation pin. This
pin is connected to error
amplifier output and PWM
comparator. A RC network is
