pin FuncTions
MODE/SYNC (Pin 5): This input controls the operating
mode of the converter and allows for synchronizing the
operating frequency to an external clock. If the MODE/
SYNC pin is connected to ground, Burst Mode operation
is enabled. If the MODE/SYNC pin is connected to INTV
CC
,
or if an external logic-level synchronization signal is ap-
plied to this input, Burst Mode operation is disabled and
the IC operates in a continuous mode.
GND (Pin 6): Ground Pin.
GATE (Pin 7): Gate Driver Output.
INTV
CC
(Pin 8): The Internal 7V Regulator Output. The
gate driver and control circuits are powered from this
voltage. Decouple this pin locally to the IC ground with a
minimum of 4.7µF low ESR tantalum or ceramic capacitor.
This 7V regulator has an undervoltage lockout circuit with
5.6V and 4.6V rising and falling thresholds, respectively.
V
IN
(Pin 9): Main Supply Pin. Must be closely decoupled
to ground.
SENSE (Pin 10): The Current Sense Input for the Control
Loop. Connect this pin to a resistor in the source of the
power MOSFET. Alternatively, the SENSE pin may be con-
nected to the drain of the power MOSFET, in applications
where the maximum V
DS
is less than 36V. Internal leading
edge blanking is provided for both sensing methods.
