VID0 to VID4: Output Voltage Programming Input Pins. A
3 A internal pull-up current is provided on each input pin.
See Table 1 for details. Do not apply voltage to these pins
prior to the application of voltage on the V
PLLIN: Synchronization Input to Phase Detector. This pin
is internally terminated to SGND with 50k . The phase-
locked loop will force the rising top gate signal of control-
ler 1 to be synchronized with the rising edge of the PLLIN
signal.
PLLFLTR: The phase-locked loop’s lowpass filter is tied to
this pin. Alternatively, this pin can be driven with an AC or
DC voltage source to vary the frequency of the internal
oscillator. (Do not apply voltage directly to this pin prior to
the application of voltage on the V
FCB: Forced Continuous Control Input. The voltage ap-
plied to this pin sets the operating mode of the controller.
The forced continuous current mode is active when the
applied voltage is less than 0.6V. Burst Mode operation
will be active when the pin is allowed to float and a stage
shedding mode will be active if the pin is tied to the V
(Do not apply voltage directly to this pin prior to the
application of voltage on the V
IN
amplifier with internal precision resistors. This provides
true remote sensing of both the positive and negative load
terminals for precise output voltage control.
DIFFOUT: Output of the Remote Output Voltage Sensing
Differential Amplifier.
EAIN: This is the input to the error amplifier which com-
pares the VID divided, feedback voltage to the internal
0.6V reference voltage.
PADDLE (UHF Package Only): This pin is connected to
the heat spreading metal pad at the center of the package
bottom and is tied to the IC’s substrate. It must be
connected to the SGND pin.
SGND: Signal Ground. This pin must be routed separately
under the IC to the PGND pin and then to the main ground
plane.

RUN/SS: Combination of Soft-Start, Run Control Input
and Short-Circuit Detection Timer. A capacitor to ground
at this pin sets the ramp time to full current output as well
as the time delay prior to an output voltage short-circuit
shutdown. A minimum value of 0.01 F is recommended
on this pin.

pensation Point. All three current comparator’s thresholds
increase with this control voltage.
PGND: Driver Power Ground. This pin connects directly to
the sources of the bottom N-channel external MOSFETs
and the (–) terminals of C

Channel MOSFETs. Voltage swing at these pins is from

PGND pin.

the bottom MOSFET on-chip drivers. Tie this pin to the V
pin and carefully decouple this pin to the PGND pin with a
minimum of 5 F of ceramic capacitance immediately

SW1 to SW3: Switch Node Connections to Inductors.
Voltage swing at these pins is from a Schottky diode
(external) voltage drop below ground to V
the external MOSFET supply rail).
TG1 to TG3: High Current Gate Drives for Top N-channel
MOSFETs. These are the outputs of floating drivers with a
voltage swing equal to the boost voltage source superim-
posed on the switch node voltage SW.
BOOST1 to BOOST3: Positive Supply Pins to the Topside
Floating Drivers. Bootstrapped capacitors, charged with
external Schottky diodes and a boost voltage source, are
connected between the BOOST and SW pins. Voltage
swing at the BOOST pins is from boost source voltage
