PIN DESCRIPTIONS
NAME NO. DESCRIPTION
IN 5–8 Unregulated input to the device.
Enable pin. Driving this pin high enables the regulator. Driving this pin low puts the regulator
EN 11
into shutdown mode. This pin must not be left floating.
SS 15 Soft-Start pin. A capacitor connected on this pin to ground sets the start-up time. If this pin
is left floating, the regulator output soft-start ramp time is typically 100ms.
BIAS 10 Bias input voltage for error amplifier, reference, and internal control circuits.
Power-Good (PG) is an open-drain, active-high output that indicates the status of V
OUT
.
When V
OUT
exceeds the PG trip threshold, the PG pin goes into a high-impedance state.
When V
OUT
is below this threshold the pin is driven to a low-impedance state. A pull-up
PG 9
resistor from 10k to 1M should be connected from this pin to a supply up to 5.5V. The
supply can be higher than the input voltage. Alternatively, the PG pin can be left floating if
output monitoring is not necessary.
This pin is the feedback connection to the center tap of an external resistor divider network
FB 16
that sets the output voltage. This pin must not be left floating.
OUT 1, 18–20 Regulated output voltage. No capacitor is required on this pin for stability.
No connection. This pin can be left floating or connected to GND to allow better thermal
NC 2–4, 13, 14, 17
contact to the top-side plane.
GND 12 Ground
PAD/TAB Should be soldered to the ground plane for increased thermal performance.
