Switching-Mode Selection and External-Clock Synchronization Inputs.
• CLK/SEL=Low: Low-power, delivers up to 10% of full load current.
• CLK/SEL=High: High-power PWM mode. Full output power available. Operates in
low-noise, constant-frequency mode.
• CLK/SEL=External Clock: High-power PWM mode with the internal oscillator
synchronized to the external clock.
Turning on with CLK/SEL=0V also serves as a soft-start function since peak inductor
current is limited to 25% of that allowed in PWM mode.

DC-DC Converter Dual-Mode Feedback Input. For a fixed output voltage of +3.3V,
connect FB to GND. For adjustable output, connect a divider between POUT and GND
to set the output voltage in the range of 2.5V to 5V.
