pin FuncTions
RUN/SS (Pin 1): Run Control and Soft-Start Input. An
internal 1µA charges the soft-start capacitor and will
charge to approximately 2.5V. During a current limit fault,
the soft-start capacitor will incrementally discharge. Once
the pin drops below 1.225V the IC will enter fault mode,
turning off the outputs for 32 times the soft-start time. If
>5µA (at RUN/SS = 1.225V) is applied externally, the part
will latch off after a fault is detected. If >40µA (at RUN/SS
= 1.225V) is applied externally, current limit faults will not
discharge the SS capacitor.
V
C
(Pin 2): Error Amp Output. A frequency compensa-
tion network is connected from this pin to the FB pin to
compensate the loop. See Closing the Feedback Loop in
the Applications Information section for guidelines.
FB (Pin 3): Feedback Pin. Connect resistor divider tap
here. The feedback reference voltage is typically 1.225V
The output voltage can be adjusted from 2.7V to 10V ac-
cording to the following formula:
