12UVLO/EN/ SYNCIUndervoltage lockout programming pin. The converter start-up and shutdown levels can be programmed by connecting this pin to the supply voltage through a resistor divider. The internal clock can be synchronized to an external clock by applying a negative pulse signal into the UVLO/EN/ SYNC pin. This pin must not be left floating. Connect to BIAS pin if not used. Connect the low-side UVLO resistor to AGND.
