OVMODE (Pin 17/Pin 12):
Overvoltage Mode Selection Pulling this pin to ground selects Burst Mode operation. Input. This pin is used to select how the LTC3769 operates An internal 100k resistor to ground also invokes Burst when the output feedback voltage (VFB) is overvoltage Mode operation when the pin is floated. Tying this pin (>110% of its normal regulated point of 1.2V). It is also to INTVCC forces continuous inductor current operation. used to determine the light-load mode of operation when Tying this pin to a voltage greater than 1.2V and less than the LTC3769 is synchronized to an external clock through INTVCC – 1.3V selects pulse-skipping operation. This can the PLLIN/MODE pin. be done by adding a 100k resistor between the PLLIN/ When OVMODE is tied to ground, overvoltage protection MODE pin and INTVCC. is enabled and the top MOSFET gate (TG) is turned on
RUN (Pin 11/Pin 6):

Forcing this pin When OVMODE is grounded, the LTC3769 operates in below 0.7V shuts down the entire LTC3769, reducing forced continuous mode when synchronized. There is an quiescent current to approximately 4µA. An external internal weak pull-down resistor that pulls the OVMODE resistor divider connected to VIN can set the threshold pin to ground when it is left floating. for converter operation. Once running, a 4.5µA current is When OVMODE is tied to INTV sourced from the RUN pin allowing the user to program CC, overvoltage protection is disabled and TG is not forced on during an overvolt- hysteresis using the resistor values. age event.
