Functional Pin Description
FB (Pin 1)
Connect this pin to the output (V
OUT
) of the PWM con-
verter via an external resistor divider to provide a volt-
age feedback path for the converter. The output volt-
age set by the resistor divider is determined using the
following formula :

are measured with respect to this pin.
HDRV (Pin 5)
Connect this pin to the gate of the high-side power
MOSFET. This pin provides the gate drive for the
MOSFET.
VC (Pin 6)
This pin provides bias voltage to the high-side
MOSFET driver. A bootstrap circuit may be used to
pump a boot voltage for enforcing the driving capabil-
ity of the gate driver and improving the performance of
the MOSFET.
COMP (Pin 7)
This pin is the output of the error amplifier. Add an
external resistor-capacitor network to provide a loop
compensation for the PWM converter.
SS (Pin 8)
Connect a capacitor from this pin to ground.This
capacitor, along with an internal 20uA current source,
sets the soft-start interval of the PWM converter and
prevents the outputs from overshoot as well as limits
the input current. Pull this pin below 0.5V can shut-
down the converter.

where R
OUT
is the resistor connected from V
OUT
to FB
, and R
GND
is the resistor connected from FB to ground.
The voltage at this pin is also monitored for Under-
Voltage protection.
VCC (Pin 2)
Connect this pin to input voltage from 5V to 20V. This
pin provides the bias for the control circuitry and the
low-side power MOSFET driver (LDRV). The voltage
at this pin is monitored for Power-On Reset (POR)
purpose.
LDRV (Pin 3)
Connect this pin to the gate of the low-side power
MOSFET. This pin provides the gate drive for the
MOSFET.
GND (Pin 4)
Signal and power ground for the IC. All voltage levels
