6 Jumper Settings
Terminal Silkscreen Description
Sets the AVIN of the LM21305. Pins 2 and 3 connected gives AVIN = PVIN. Pins 1 and 2
JP1 connected gives AVIN = AVIN_EXT.
Default: pins 2 and 3 connected.
Enables the on-board LED, LD1. When J1 is ON, LD1 will be ON if PGOOD is high. When J1 is
J1 OFF, power used to drive LD1 is saved.
Default: ON.
Synchronizing clock input. When J2 is ON, C1 is connected to ground and switching frequency
is set by the on-board resistor R4. When J2 is OFF, the switch node waveform will be
J2
synchronized to the clock source connected to J2.
Default: ON.
Only should be connected when AVIN = 5V. When AVIN is below 5V, and especially below
3.3V, connecting J3 can result in better efficiency.
J3
Default: OFF.
Caution: if AVIN > 5.5V, connecting J3 could damage the device.
