VEE (Pin 1): Negative Supply. The negative supply input

ranges from –2.7V to –16.5V for normal operation. IEE is

typically –1.6mA. An internal undervoltage lockout circuit

disables the device for inputs greater than –2.45V. A 10

Ω,

µFRCbypassnetworkfromVIN–totheVEEpindecouples

transients from the device.

SENSEK (Pin 2): Negative Supply Current Limit Kelvin

Sense Pin. Connect to VIN–.

SENSE– (Pin 3): Negative Supply Current Limit Sense Pin.

A sense resistor is placed in the supply path between

SENSEK and SENSE–. The current limit circuit will regulate

the

voltage

across

the

sense

resistor

–50mV (SENSEK – SENSE–) when the FB– voltage is less

than –0.7V. If VFB– goes above –0.7V, the voltage across

the sense resistor decreases linearly and stops at –15mV

when VFB– is 0V. If current limit is not used, connect to

SENSEK.

GATE– (Pin 4): Gate Drive for the External Negative Supply

N-Channel FET. An internal 10

µA current source drives the

pin. An external capacitor connected from the GATE– pin

to VOUT– will control the rising slope of the VOUT– signal.

The voltage is clamped to 9V above VEE.

When the current limit is reached, the GATE– pin voltage

will be adjusted to maintain a constant voltage across the

RS– resistor while the timer capacitor starts to charge. If

the TIMER pin voltage exceeds 1.24V, the fault latch will be

set and both GATE– and GATE+ pins will be pulled low.

The GATE– pin is pulled to VEE whenever the ON+ pin is

below 1.24V, the ON– pin is above –1.24V, or either supply

is in the undervoltage lockout voltage range, or the fault

latch is set by the TIMER pin rising above 1.24V.

FB– (Pin 5): Negative Power Good Comparator Input. This

pin monitors the negative output voltage (VOUT–) with an

external resistive divider. When the voltage on FB– is

below –1.24V and the initial GATE– drive voltage has

reached a maximum (indicated by setting the internal

GATE– good latch) and the FB+ release conditions are met,

the PWRGD pin is released. PWRGD is pulled low when the

FB– pin is above –1.185V. Note the PWRGD pin is wire-

ORed with the FB+ pin conditions.

FB– also controls the negative supply current limit sense

amplifier input offset to provide foldback current limit. The

FB– pin linearly reduces the negative supply sense ampli-

fier offset from –52mV to –15mV for FB– in the range

–0.75V < FB– < 0V. To disable VEE PWRGD and foldback

current limit, the FB– pin should be set to a voltage in the

range: –1.3V > FB– > VEE + 0.5V but should never be more

negative then –5.8V for normal operation.

ON– (Pin 6): The Negative Supply Good Comparator Input.

This pin monitors the negative input voltage (VEE) with an

external resistive divider for undervoltage lockout. When

the voltage at the ON– pin is below the VON–H high-to-low

threshold (–1.24V), the negative supply is considered

good. If the ON– pin rises above –1.185V, both GATE– and

GATE+ are pulled low. If ON– is not used, the ON– pin

should be set to –1.3V > ON– > VEE + 0.5V.

TRACK (Pin 7): Supply Tracking Mode Control. If the TRACK

pin is pulled high, the internal supply tracking circuit will

be enabled during start-up. The TRACK circuit monitors

the FB+ and the FB– pins to keep their magnitude within a

small voltage range by controlling the GATE+ and GATE–

charge currents. The tracking is disabled when either FB

comparator indicates the output is good. Tracking is re-

enabled if ON+ is pulled below 1.185V, ON– is pulled above

–1.185V or either supply is below the internal undervoltage

lockout. Typically, the TRACK pin is tied to GND or to VCC.

If left floating, tracking is enabled.

TIMER (Pin 8): Fault Time Out Control. An external timing

capacitor at this pin programs the maximum time the part

is allowed to remain in current limit before issuing a fault

and turning off the external FETs. Additionally, for

autorestart, this pin controls the time before an autorestart

is initiated.

When the part goes into current limit, a 65

µA pull-up

current source starts to charge the timing capacitor. When

the voltage reaches VTIMERH (1.24V), the internal fault

latch is set, FAULT pulls low and both GATE pins are pulled

low; the pull-up current will be turned off and the capacitor

is discharged by a 3.3

µA pull-down current. When the

TIMER pin falls below 0.5V, the part is allowed to restart

if the ON+ pin is pulsed below 1.185V, thereby resetting

internal fault latch—typically done by connecting the
