PLLFLTR (Pin 5/Pin 2): The Phase-Locked Loop’s Low
Pass 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.
PLLIN (Pin 6/Pin 3): External 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 controller 1 to be synchronized with the
rising edge of the PLLIN signal.
PHASMD (Pin 7/Pin 4): Control Input to Phase Selector
which determines the phase relationships between con-
troller 1, controller 2 and the CLKOUT signal.
I
Regulator Compensation Point. Both current comparator’s
thresholds increase with this control voltage. The normal
voltage range of this pin is from 0V to 2.4V.
SGND (Pin 9/Pin 6): Signal Ground, common to both
controllers, must be routed separately from the input
switched current ground path to the common (–)
terminal(s) of the C
V
that provides true remote output voltage sensing. This pin
normally drives an external resistive divider that sets the
output voltage.
V
tional Amplifier. Internal precision resistors capable of
being electronically switched in or out can configure it as
a differential amplifier or an uncommitted Op Amp.
PGOOD (Pin 15/Pin 13): Open-Drain Logic Output. PGOOD
is pulled to ground when the voltage on the EAIN pin is not
within 7.5% of its set point.
TG2, TG1 (Pins 16, 27/Pins 14, 26): High Current Gate
Drives for Top N-Channel MOSFETS. These are the out-
puts of floating drivers with a voltage swing equal to

SW2, SW1 (Pins 17, 26/Pins 15, 25): Switch Node
Connections to Inductors. Voltage swing at these pins is
from a Schottky diode (external) voltage drop below
ground to V
BOOST2, BOOST1 (Pins 18, 25/Pins 17, 24): Bootstrapped
Supplies to the Topside Floating Drivers. Capacitors are
connected between the Boost and Switch pins and Schot-
tky diodes are tied between the Boost and INTV

EXTV
Internal Switch . This switch closes and supplies INTV
bypassing the internal low dropout regulator whenever
