3.0 PIN DESCRIPTIONS
The descriptions of the pins are listed in Table 3-1.
TABLE 3-1: PIN FUNCTION TABLE
3.1 External Gate Drive (EXT)
EXT is the output pin that drives the external N-channel
MOSFET on and off during boost operation. EXT is
equal to GND for SHDN or UVLO conditions.
3.2 Circuit Ground (GND)
Connect the GND pin to circuit ground. See layout
guidelines for suggested grounding physical layout.
3.3 Current Sense (CS)
Input peak current is sensed on CS through the exter-
nal current sense resistor. When the sensed current is
converted to a voltage, the current sense threshold is
122 mV below V
IN
typical. If that threshold is exceeded,
the pulse is terminated asynchronously.
3.4 Feedback Input (FB)
Connect output voltage of boost converter through
external resistor divider to the FB pin for voltage
regulation. The nominal voltage that is compared to this
input for pulse termination is 1.22V.
3.5 Shutdown Input (SHDN)
The SHDN input is used to turn the boost converter on
and off. For normal operation, tie this pin high or to V
IN
.
To turn off the device, tie this pin to low or ground.
3.6 Low Battery Input (LBI)
LBI is the input pin for the low battery comparator.
When the voltage on this pin falls below the nominal
1.22V threshold setting, the LBO (Low Battery Output)
open-drain is active-low.
3.7 Low Battery Output (LBO)
LBO is an active-low, open-drain output capable of
sinking 10 mA when the LBI pin is below the threshold
voltage. LBO is high-impedance during SHDN or UVLO
conditions.
3.8 Power Good (PG)
PG is an active-high, open-drain output capable of
sinking 10 mA when the FB input pin is 15% below its
typical value or more than 15% above its typical value,
indicating that the output voltage is out of regulation.
PG is high impedance during SHDN
or UVLO
condition.
