TIMER (Pin 7):
Timer Input. Connect this pin to an external The LTC3900 monitors the CS inputs 250ns after CG goes R-C network to program the timeout period. The LTC3900 high. If the inductor current reverses and flows into the resets the timer at every negative transition of the SYNC MOSFET causing CS+ to rise above CS– by more than input. If the SYNC signal is missing or incorrect, the 10.5mV, the LTC3900 pulls CG low. See the Current Sense LTC3900 pulls both CG and FG low once the TIMER pin section for more details on choosing the resistance value goes above the timeout threshold. See the Timer section for RCS1 to RCS3. for more details on programming the timeout period.

The SYNC input can accept both pulse or square to the LTC3900. wave signals.
FG (Pin 5):
Forward MOSFET Gate Driver. This pin drives the gate of the external N-channel forward MOSFET, Q3.
