ADVANCE INFORMATION
MODE/SYNC is a multifunction pin that configures the mode of operation and serves as an input for an external clock synchronization signal.
As shown in Table 7-2, if MODE/SYNC is grounded or driven to a logic low, the converter operates in AUTO mode. If the pin is tied to VCC or driven to a logic high, or synchronized to an external clock source, the converter operates in FPWM mode.
| MODE/SYNC | MODE | DYNAMIC MODE CHANGE |
|---|---|---|
| Tied to PGND or driven low | AUTO | Enabled |
| Tied to VCC or driven high (> 2.5V above PGND) | FPWM | |
| External clock signal applied |
Transitioning the device from AUTO to FPWM mode requires driving the pin from low to high or applying a synchronization signal. Transitioning from FPWM to AUTO mode requires driving the pin from high to low or stopping the synchronization signal.
