PINPINTYPE (1)DESCRIPTION
NAMENOTYPE (1)DESCRIPTION
CB1PBootstrap capacitor connection for high-side FET driver. Connect a high quality 100-nF capacitor from this pin to the SW pin.
GND2GPower ground pins. Connected to the source of low-side FET internally. Connect to system ground, ground side of C IN and C OUT . The path to C IN must be as short as possible.
FB3AFeedback input to the converter. Connect a resistor divider to set the output voltage. Never short this terminal to ground during operation.
EN4APrecision enable input to the converter. Do not float. High = on, low = off. Can be tied to VIN. Precision enable input allows an adjustable UVLO by an external resistor divider.
VIN5PSupply input pin to the internal bias LDO and high-side FET. Connect to the input supply and input bypass capacitors C IN . Input bypass capacitors must be directly connected to this pin and GND.
SW6PSwitching output of the converter. Internally connected to source of the high-side FET and drain of the low-side FET. Connect to the power inductor.

Thermal Information

The value of RθJA given in this table is only valid for comparison with other packages and cannot be used for design purposes. These values were calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7, and simulated on a 4-layer JEDEC board. They do not represent the performance obtained in an actual application. For example, with a 2-layer PCB, a R θJA = 95 °C /W can be achieved. For design information, see Maximum Output Current Versus Ambient Temperature.
