PGND
Power ground pins. These pins provide a return path for low-side FET and the low-side gate driver.
PWM input. This pin is a digital input that accepts 3.3 V or 5 V logic level signals. A Schmitt trigger input
comparator desensitizes this pin from external noise. When SRE mode is high, this pin controls both gate
drivers. When SRE mode is low, this pin only controls the high-side driver. This pin can detect when the input
drive signal has switched to a high impedance (tri-state) mode. When the high impedance mode is detected,
both the high-side gate and low-side gate signals are held low.

Requires a resistor to AGND for setting the current sense blanking time for the high-side current sense
comparator and output current limit circuitry.
Synchronous rectifier enable or low-side input. This pin is a digital input capable of accepting 3.3V or 5V logic
level signals. A Schmitt trigger input comparator desensitizes this pin from external noise. When SRE mode is
high, this signal, when low, disables the synchronous rectifier FET. The low-side gate signal is held off. When
SRE mode is high, this signal, when high, allows the low-side gate signal to function according to the state of
the PWM pin. When SRE mode is low, this pin is a direct input to the low-side gate driver.
Synchronous rectifier enable mode select pin. When pulled high to BP3, the high-side and low-side gate drive
timing is controlled by the PWM pin. Anti-cross-conduction logic prevents simultaneous application of high-side
and low-side gate drive. When pulled low to AGND, independent operation of the high-side and low-side gate is
selected. The high-side gate is directly controlled by the PWM signal. The low-side gate is directly controlled by
the SRE signal. No anti-cross-conduction circuitry is active in this mode. This pin should not be left floating.

Input voltage to internal driver circuitry and control circuitry. Connect a low ESR bypass ceramic capacitor of
100 nF or greater from this pin to AGND.

I
Gate drive voltage supply. When VGG_DIS is low, VGG is generated by an on-chip linear regulator. Nominal
I/O output voltage is 6.4 V. When VGG_DIS is high, an externally supplied gate voltage can be applied to this pin.
Connect a 4.7 µF low ESR ceramic capacitor from this pin to PGND.

VGG disable pin. When pulled high to BP3, the on-chip VGG linear regulator is disabled. When disabled, an

externally supplied gate voltage must be connected to the VGG pin. Connect this pin to AGND to use the on-
chip regulator.
