General Description
The APW7066 has two synchronous buck PWM
controllers and one linear cont roller with high
pre cision internal references voltage to offer accurate
outputs. The PWM controllers are designed to drive
two N-channel MOSFETs in synchronous buck
topology, a nd the linear controller drives an external
N-chan nel MOSFET. The device requires 12V and 5V
power supplies, if the 5V supply is not available,
VCC12 ca n offer an optional shunt regulator 5.8V for
5V supply.
All outputs have independent soft-start and enable
functio ns by SS/EN pins to control. Connect a capacitor
from each SS/EN pin to the ground for setting the
soft-start ti me, and pulling the SS/EN pin below 1V to
disab le regulator. Pull the SS2/EN2 to VCC, enter the
DDR mode, the SS1/EN1 controls both VOUT1 and
VOUT2, and allows VOUT2 to track VOUT1. It also
off ers the phase shift function by REFOUT pin to
sele ct the phase shift between VOUT1 an d VOUT2 in
DDR mode or Independent mode. When all SS/EN
pins exceed 3. 3V and no faults are detected, the
PGOOD pin goes high to indicate the regulators are
ready. If any of t he SS/EN pins goes below 3.2V or
any of the outputs has a fault condition, the PGOOD
pin will be pulled low .
The inte rnal oscillator is nominally 300kHz (keep the
FS/SYN C pin open or short to GND), and it offers the
programmable frequency function from 70kHz t o
800kH z; connecting a resistor from FS/SYNC to VCC
to decrease the frequency, conversely, connect a
resistor fro m FS/SYNC to GND to increase th e frequency.
The IC also provides the synch ronous freque ncy fun ction.
Connect the LGATE signal of another converter to
FS/SYNC pin; forcing the switching frequency to follow

th e external clock. The possible synchronous frequency
is from 150kHz to 800kHz. There is no Rds(on)
sensing or under-voltage sensing on APW7066.
Howe ver, it provides a simple short-circuit protection
by monitoring the COMP1 a nd COMP2 for over-voltage.
When any of two pins exce eds their trip point and the
condition persists for 1-2 internal clock cycle (3-6us
at 300kHz), the n it will shut down all regulators.

Powe r supply input pin. Connect a nominal 5V power
supply to this pin for the control circuit, or connect a
resistor (nominally 300Ω) to VCC12 for a shunt
regulator function (typical 5.8V). It is recommended
that a de coupling capacitor (1 to 10uF) is connected
to the GND for noise decoupling.
GND
This pin is the signal ground pin. The metal thermal
pad und er the package is the IC substrate; connects
the GND pin and metal thermal pad together on the
board, and ties to the good GND p lane for electrical
and thermal con duction.
VC C12
Pow er supply input pin. Connect a no minal 12V power
su pply to this p in for the ga te driver. It is re commended
that a decoupling ca pacitor (1 to 10uF) is connected
to the GND for n oise decoupling.
PGND
This pin is the power grou nd pin for the gate driver a nd
linear driver circuit. It should be tied to the GND.
FB1, FB 2, FB3
These pins are th e inverting inputs of the error amplifiers of their respective regulators. They are used to
set the output voltage and the compensation
components.
SS1/EN1, SS2/EN2, SS3/EN3
These pins provide two functions. Connect a capacitor
to the GND fo r setting the soft-start time. Use an open
drain log ic signal to pull the SS/EN pin low to disable
the respective output, leave open to enable the respe ctive output.
COMP1 , COMP2
These pin s are the outputs of error amplifiers of their
respect ive regulators. They are used to set the
compensa tion components.
UGATE1, UGATE2
These pins provide t he gate driver for the upper
MOSFETs of VOUT1 a nd VOUT2.
LGATE1, LGATE2
These pins provide the gate driver for the lower
MOSFETs of VOUT1 and VOUT2.
BOOT1, BOOT2
These pins provide the bootstrap voltage to the gate
driver for driving the upper MOSFETs. It can be
connected to a power voltage directly, but the difference voltage between the BOOT a nd VIN must be high
enoug h to drive the upper MOSFETs.
REFIN
This pin is th e refere nce input voltag e of error amplifier
of the VOUT2. It also provides the volta ge into a buffe r,
which is ou t on the REFOUT pin.
REFOUT
This pin provides a buffed voltage, which is from REFIN
pin. In Independent mode, it can be used by other
ICs. In DDR mode, it is from th e VOUT1, and can be
use d as the VTT buffer.
This p in also uses to select th e phase shift (see table1 ).
When this pin pulls to VCC, the buffer is disabled and
the REFOUT is not available for use. It is reco mmended
that a 0.1u F capacitor is connected to the ground for
stability.
VR EF
This p in provides a 3.3V refe rence voltage, which can
be used by the REFIN pin or other ICs as a voltage
reference. It is recommended that a 1uF capacitor is
connected to ground for stability.
DRIVE3
This pin drives the gate of an external N-channel
MOSFET for line ar regulator.
PGOOD
This pin is an open drain device; connect a pull up
resistor to the VCC for PGOOD function.
FS/SYN C
This pin is used to adjust the switching frequency.
Con necting a resistor fro m FS/SYNC pin to the ground
increases the switching frequency. Conversely, connecting a resistor from this pin to the VCC12 reduces
the swit ching frequency. In addition, this pin also
provide s synchronous frequency function. An e xternal
clock can be fed into this pin, and force the switching
frequency to follow the external clock.
