FSYNC

Synchronization Input. The device synchronizes to an external signal applied to FSYNC.

The external clock frequency must be 10% greater than the internal clock frequency for

proper operation. Connect FSYNC to GND if the internal clock is used.

FOSC

Resistor-Programmable Switching-Frequency Setting Control Input. Connect a resistor

from FOSC to GND to set the switching frequency.

OUT

Switch Regulator Output. OUT also provides power to the internal circuitry when the out-

put voltage of the converter is set between 3V and 5V during standby mode.

3

FB

Feedback Input. Connect an external resistive divider from OUT to FB and GND to set

the output voltage. Connect to BIAS to set the output voltage to 5V.

6

4

COMP

Error-Amplifier Output. Connect an RC network from COMP to GND for stable operation.

See the Compensation Network section for more details.

BIAS

Linear-Regulator Output. BIAS powers up the internal circuitry. Bypass with a 1FF

capacitor to ground.
