External Clock Input. Applying a Differential Current Comparators. clock to this pin causes the internal oscillator to phase- lock to the external clock (nominal lock frequency range
ITH/RUN1, ITH/RUN2 (Pins 2, 6):
These pins each serve between 300kHz and 750kHz). This also disables Burst two functions. Each pin serves as the error amplifier Mode operation but allows pulse-skipping at low load compensation point as well as the run control input for the currents. respective controller. Forcing one pin below 0.35V causes the functions associated with that controller to be shut Forcing this pin high enables Burst Mode operation. down. Forcing both ITH/RUN pins below 0.35V causes the Forcing this pin low enables pulse-skipping mode. In device to be shut down. Nominal operating voltage range these cases, the frequency of the internal oscillator is set on these pins is from 0.7V to 1.9V. by the voltage on the PLLLPF pin. If the PLLLPF voltage is not set externally, the frequency internally defaults to
