LTC3822-1 PIN FUNCTIONS (DD/GN)BG (Pin 8/Pin 11): Bottom Gate Driver Output. This pin SW (Pin 12/Pin 16): Switch Node Connection to Inductor. drives the gate of the external bottom-side MOSFET. This This pin is also the negative input to the differential current pin has an output swing from GND to BOOST. comparator(DFN only) and an input to the reverse current comparator. Normally this pin is connected to the source TG (Pin 9/Pin 12): Top Gate Driver Output. This pin drives of the external topside MOSFET, the drain of the external the gate of the external topside MOSFET. This pin has an bottom-side MOSFET, and the inductor. output swing from GND to BOOST. Exposed Pad (Pin 13, DD Only): Ground. The Exposed BOOST (Pin 10/Pin 13): Positive Supply Pin for the Gate Pad is ground and must be soldered to the PCB ground Driver Circuitry. A bootstrapped capacitor, charged with for electrical contact and optimal thermal performance. an external Schottky diode and a boost voltage source, is connected between the BOOST and SW pins. Voltage swing GND (Pins 1, 9 GN Only): Ground. at the BOOST pin is from boost source voltage (typically PGOOD (Pin 4, GN Only): Power Good Output Voltage VIN) to this boost source voltage + VIN. Monitor Open-Drain Logic Output. This pin is pulled to VIN (Pin 11/Pin 14): This pin powers the control circuitry ground when the voltage on the feedback pin VFB is not and serves as the positive input to the differential current within ±13.3% of its nominal set point. comparator. SENSE– (Pin 15, GN Only): Negative Input to the Differential Current Comparator. Normally this pin is connected to the source of the external topside MOSFET. 38221f 7
