Applications Information
Output voltage tracking can also be programmed externally
using the TRACK/SS pin. The output can be tracked up
and down with another regulator. Figure 2 and Figure 3
show an example waveform and schematic of ratiometric
tracking where the slave regulator’s output slew rate is
proportional to the master’s.
Since the slave regulator’s TRACK/SS is connected to
the master’s output through a RTR(TOP)/RTR(BOT) resistor
divider and its voltage used to regulate the slave output
voltage when TRACK/SS voltage is below 0.6V, the slave
