Pin Description
PIN
FUNCTION
NO.
NAME
1
VIN
2
EN
Power Input. VIN supplies the power (4.5V to 26V) to the control circuitry, gate driver and
step-down converter switch. Connecting a ceramic bypass capacitor and a suitably large
capacitor between VIN and GND eliminates switching noise and voltage ripple on the input to
the IC.
Enable Input. EN is a digital input that turns the regulator on or off. Drive EN high to turn on the
regulator, drive it low to turn it off. Pull up with 100kΩ resistor for automatic start-up.
UGND
Gate driver power ground of the P-channel Power MOSFET. A linear regulator regulates a 5.5V
voltage between VIN and UGND to supply power to P-channel MOSFET gate driver. Connect a
ceramic capacitor (1µF typ.) between VIN and UGND for noise decoupling and stability of the
linear regulator.
4
VCC
Bias input and 4.2V linear regulator’s output. This pin supplies the bias to some control circuits.
The 4.2V linear regulator converts the voltage on VIN to 4.2V to supply the bias when no
external 5V power supply is connected with VCC. Connect a ceramic capacitor (1µF typ.)
between VCC and GND for noise decoupling and stability of the linear regulator.
5
LX
6
COMP
Output of error amplifier. Connect a series RC network from COMP to GND to compensate the
regulation control loop. In some cases, an additional capacitor from COMP to GND is required
for noise decoupling.
7
FB
Feedback Input. The IC senses feedback voltage via FB and regulate the voltage at 0.8V.
Connecting FB with a resistor-divider from the output set the output voltage in the range from
0.8V to 90% VIN.
8
GND
9
(Exposed Pad)
LX
3
Power Switching Output. Connect this pin to the underside Exposed Pad.
Power and Signal Ground.
Power Switching Output. LX is the Drain of the P-channel MOSFET to supply power to the
output. The Exposed Pad provides current with lower impedance than Pin 5. Connect the pad to
output LC filter via a top-layer thermal pad on PCBs. The PCB will be a heat sink of the IC.

APW7089

2µs noise filter to prevent the chips from wrong UVP shutdown caused by noise. The under-voltage protection
works in a hiccup mode without latched shutdown. The
IC will initiate a new soft-start process at the end of the
preceeding delay.
Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)
The over-temperature circuit limits the junction temperature of the APW7089. When the junction temperature exceeds TJ = +150oC, a thermal sensor turns off the power
MOSFET, allowing the devices to cool. The thermal sensor
allows the converter to start a start-up process and
regulate the output voltage again after the junction
temperature is cooled by 50 oC. The OTP is designed
with a 50oC hysteresis to lower the average TJ during continuous thermal overload conditions, increasing lifetime
of the IC.
Enable/Shutdown
Driving EN to ground places the APW7089 in shutdown.
When in shutdown, the internal power MOSFET turns off,
all internal circuitry shuts down and the quiescent supply
current of VIN reduces to
