●Pin Function
○Pin 1: REG50
The REG pin is used in the DC/DC converter driver block to output 5V power. The maximum operating current is 5mA.
Using the REG pin at a current higher than 5mA can affect the N pin output pulse, causing the IC to malfunction and
leading to heat generation of the IC itself. To avoid this problem, it is recommended to make load setting to the minimum
level.
○Pin 2:N
The N pin is used to output power to the external NMOS gate driver for the DC/DC converter in the amplitude range of
approx. 0 to 5V. Frequency setting can be made with a resistor connected to the RT pin. For details of frequency setting,
refer to the description of the <RT pin>.
○Pin 3: PGND
The PGND pin is a power ground pin for the driver block of the N output pin.
○Pin 4: CS
CS pin is current detect for DC/DC current mode inductor current control pin.
Current flowing through the inductor is converted into voltage by the current sensing resistor RCS connected to the CS
pin and this voltage is compared with voltage set with the error amplifier to control the DC/DC output voltage.
The CS pin also incorporates the overcurrent protection (OCP) function. If the CS pin voltage reaches 0.4V (Typ.) or
more, switching operation will be forcedly stopped.
In order to prevent the malfunction while OCP occurred in BD9479FV,it equipped with mask function.It mask OCP signal
within 200ns interval after N driver is outputted.
Pin 5: OVP
The OVP pin is an input pin for overvoltage protection and short circuit protection of DC/DC output voltage.When voltage
of it over 2.25V or higher,CP pin start to charge.When it over 2.5V(typ),it will control FB pin.When OVP pin voltage is
near 2.5V,DCDC output feedback will controlled by OVP pin voltage.

●Operational Notes
1) We pay utmost attention to the quality control of this product. However, if it exceeds the absolute maximum ratings
including applied voltage and operating temperature range, it may lead to its deterioration or breakdown. Further, this
makes it impossible to assume a breakdown state such as short or open circuit mode. If any special mode to exceed the
absolute maximum ratings is assumed, consider adding physical safety measures such as fuses.
2) Making a reverse connection of the power supply connector can cause the IC to break down. To protect the IC form
breakdown due to reverse connection, take preventive measures such as inserting a diode between the external power
supply and the power supply pin of the IC.
3) Since current regenerated by back electromotive force flows back, take preventive measures such as inserting a capacitor
between the power supply and the ground as a path of the regenerative current and fully ensure that capacitance presents
no problems with characteristics such as lack of capacitance of electrolytic capacitors causes at low temperatures, and
then determine the power supply line. Provide thermal design having an adequate margin in consideration of power
dissipation (Pd) in the practical operating conditions.
4) The potential of the GND pin should be maintained at the minimum level in any operating state.
5) Provide thermal design having an adequate margin in consideration of power dissipation (Pd) in the practical operating
conditions.
6) To mount the IC on a printed circuit board, pay utmost attention to the direction and displacement of the IC. Furthermore,
the IC may get damaged if it is mounted in an erroneous manner or if a short circuit is established due to foreign matters
entered between output pins or between output pin and power supply GND pin.
7) Note that using this IC in strong magnetic field may cause it to malfunction.
8) This IC has a built-in thermal-protection circuit (TSD circuit), which is designed to be activated if the IC junction
temperature reached 150C to 200C and deactivated with hysteresis of 10C or more. The thermal-protection circuit (TSD
circuit) is a circuit absolutely intended to protect the IC from thermal runaway, not intended to protect or guarantee the IC.
Consequently, do not use the IC based on the activation of this TSD circuit for subsequent continuous use and operation of
the IC.
9) When testing the IC on a set board with a capacitor connected to the pin, the IC can be subjected to stress. In this case,
be sure to discharge the capacitor for each process. In addition, to connect the IC to a jig up to the testing process, be sure
to turn OFF the power supply prior to connection, and disconnect the jig only after turning OFF the power supply.
10) This monolithic IC contains P Isolation and P substrate layers between adjacent elements in order to keep them isolated.
P-N junctions are formed at the intersections of these P layers and the N layers of other elements, thus making up different
types of parasitic elements.
For example, if a resistor and a transistor is connected with pins respectively as shown in Fig.
When GND(Pin A) for the resistor, or when GND(Pin B) for the transistor (NPN), P-N junctions operate as a parasitic
diode.
When GND(Pin B) for the transistor (NPN), the parasitic NPN transistor operates by the N layer of other element
adjacent to the parasitic diode aforementioned.
Due to the structure of the IC, parasitic elements are inevitably formed depending on the relationships of potential. The
operation of parasitic diodes can result in interferences in circuit operation, leading to malfunctions and eventually
breakdown of the IC. Consequently, pay utmost attention not to use the IC for any applications by which the parasitic
elements are operated, such as applying a voltage lower than that of GND (P substrate) to the input pin.
