PIN FUNCTIONS
SYNC (Pin 21): To synchronize the switching frequency
to an outside clock, simply drive this pin with a clock. The
high voltage level of the clock needs to exceed 1.3V, and
the low level should be less than 0.5V. Drive this pin to
less than 0.5V to revert to the internal free-running clock
(OSC1 in the Block Diagram).
RT (Pin 22): Timing Resistor Pin. Adjusts the switching
regulator frequency (OSC1) when SYNC is not driven by
a clock. Place a resistor from this pin to ground to set
the free-running frequency of OSC1. Do not float this pin.
BG1, BG2 (Pin 23/Pin 25): Bottom Gate Drive. Drives the
gates of the bottom N-channel MOSFETs between ground
and GATEV
.

SW1, SW2 (Pin 31/Pin 29): Switch Nodes. The (–) termi-
nal of the bootstrap capacitors connect here.
TG1, TG2 (Pin 32/Pin 28): Top Gate Drive. Drives the
top N-channel MOSFETs with voltage swings equal to
GATEV
superimposed on the switch node voltages.

SRVO_FBIN (Pin 35): Open-Drain Logic Output. This pin
is pulled to ground when the input voltage feedback loop
is active. This pin is unused for most LT8491 applications
and can be floated.
SRVO_IIN (Pin 36): Open-Drain Logic Output. This pin is
pulled to ground when the input current feedback loop is
active. This pin is unused for most LT8491 applications
and can be floated.
SRVO_IOUT (Pin 37): Open-Drain Logic Output. This pin
is pulled to ground when the output current feedback loop
is active. This pin is unused for most LT8491 applications
and can be floated.

the voltage across the sense resistor to provide the output
