TH2
(Pins 2, 13/Pins 30, 12): Error Amplifi er Output
and Switching Regulator Compensation Point. Each as-
sociated channels’ current comparator trip point increases
with this control voltage.
PHSMD (Pin 4, QFN Only): Control input to phase selector
which determines the phase relationship between control-
ler 1, controller 2 and the clockout signal.

OSENSE2
(Pins 5, 14/Pins 1, 13): Error Amplifi er
Feedback Input. Receives the remotely-sensed feedback
voltage for each controller from an external resistive divider
across the output.
PLLFLTR (Pin 6/Pin 2): Filter Connection for Phase-Locked
Loop. Alternatively, this pin can be driven with an AC or
DC voltage source to vary the frequency of the internal
oscillator.
FCB/PLLIN (Pin 8/Pin 5): Forced Continuous Control Input
and External Synchronization Input to Phase Detector. Pull-
ing this pin below 0.8V will force continuous synchronous
operation. Feeding an external clock signal will synchronize
the LTC3828 to the external clock.
