U U U PI FU CTIO S VIN2 (Pin 5):
This is the input supply for the linear regulator
INEG (Pin 12):
This is the negative sense terminal of the control circuitry and provides sufficient gate drive compli- current limit amplifier. A small sense resistor is connected ance for the external N-channel MOSFET. The maximum in series with the drain of the external MOSFET and is operating VIN2 is 20V and the minimum operating VIN2 is connected between the IPOS and INEG pins. A 50mV set by VOUT + (VGS of the MOSFET at max IOUT) + 1.6V threshold voltage in conjunction with the sense resistor (worst-case VIN2 to GATE output swing). value sets the current limit level. The current sense resis- tor can be a low value shunt or can be made from a piece

Analog Ground. This pin is also the negative of PC board trace. If the current limit amplifier is not used, sense terminal for the internal 1.21V reference. Connect the tie the I LDO regulator external feedback divider network and fre- NEG pin to IPOS to defeat current limit. An alternative is to ground the I quency compensation components that terminate to GND NEG pin. This action disables the current limit amplifier and additional internal circuitry activates directly to this pin for best regulation and performance. Also, the timer circuit on the SHDN2 pin if the GATE pin swings tie this pin directly to SWGND (Pin 2) and GND (Pin 15). to the VIN rail. This option provides the user with a
NC (Pins 7, 10):
No Connect. No R TM SENSE current limit function.
FB2 (Pin 8):
This is the inverting input of the error amplifier
IPOS (Pin 13):
This is the positive sense terminal of the for the linear regulator. The noninverting input is tied to the current limit amplifier. Tie this pin directly to the main internal 1.21V reference. Input bias current for this pin is input voltage from which the output voltage is regulated. typically 0.6µA flowing out of the pin. Tie this pin to a

Boost Regulator Shutdown Pin. Tie to 1V resistor divider network to set output voltage. Tie the top or more to enable device. Ground to shut down. This pin of the external resistor divider directly to the output load must not float for proper operation.
