PIN
NAME
FUNCTION
1
COMP
Compensation Pin for Error Amplifier. Connect a series RC from COMP to ground. See the Loop
Compensation section for component selection guidelines.
2FB
Feedback Pin. The FB regulation voltage is 1.24V nominal. Connect an external resistive voltage-divider
between the step-up regulator’s output (V
OUT
) and GND, with the center tap connected to FB. Place the
divider close to the IC and minimize the trace area to reduce noise coupling. Set V
OUT
according to the
Output Voltage Selection section.
3
SHDN
Shutdown Control Input. Drive SHDN low to turn off the MAX8727.
4
GND
Ground. Connect pins 4 and 5 directly together.
5
GND
Ground. Connect pins 4 and 5 directly together.
6LX
Switch Pin. LX is the drain of the internal MOSFET. Connect the inductor/rectifier diode junction to LX and
minimize the trace area for lower EMI. Connect pins 6 and 7 directly together.
7LX
Switch Pin. LX is the drain of the internal MOSFET. Connect the inductor/rectifier diode junction to LX and
minimize the trace area for lower EMI. Connect pins 6 and 7 directly together.
8 IN Supply Pin. Bypass IN with a minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor directly to GND.
9
FREQ
Frequency-Select Input. When FREQ is low, the oscillator frequency is set to 640kHz. When FREQ is high, the
frequency is 1.2MHz. This input has a 5µA pulldown current.
10 SS
Soft-Start Control Pin. Connect a soft-start capacitor (C
SS
) to this pin. Leave open for no soft-start. The soft-
start capacitor is charged with a constant current of 4.5µA. Full current limit is reached after t = 2.5 × 10
5
C
SS
.
The soft-start capacitor is discharged to ground when SHDN is low. When SHDN goes high, the soft-start
capacitor is charged to 0.4V, after which soft-start begins.
