Pin Number Pin Name Pin Function Description 1 VIN Input voltage pin. Supplies the input power for the device. Typically, the input voltage is in the range of 4.5V to 60V. 2 PGND Power ground pin. Connects the ground of the power supply to the ground of the device. 3 SW Switch node pin. Connects to the external inductor and provides the switching output to generate the regulated voltage. 4 BOOT Boot pin. Provides the bootstrap capacitor to the internal high-side MOSFET driver, used to drive the top-side MOSFET in the switching regulator. 5 EN Enable pin. Logic input to enable or disable the regulator. Typically, a logic high enables the device, while a logic low disables it. 6 FB Feedback pin. The voltage at this pin is compared to an internal reference to set the output voltage. It typically connects to a resistor divider that sets the output voltage. 7 PG Power Good pin. Open-drain output indicating when the output voltage is within regulation. It goes low when the output voltage is out of range. 8 SENSE+ Current sense input (positive terminal) for the internal current sense feedback to detect the output current and improve control of the output voltage regulation. 9 SENSE- Current sense input (negative terminal) used to complete the current sense feedback for output current monitoring and regulation. 10 COMP Compensation pin. Used to set the external compensation network for controlling the stability of the loop. 11 VOUT Output voltage pin.
