SNVSCD1 September 2024 LM706A0-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The LM706A0-Q1 operates with peak current-mode control such that the compensation voltage is proportional to the peak inductor current. During no-load or light-load conditions, the output capacitor discharges very slowly. As a result, the compensation voltage goes low and the switching is stopped. When the LM706A0-Q1 controller detects 16 missed switching cycles, the LM706A0-Q1 controller enters sleep mode and switches to a low IQ-SLEEP state to reduce the current drawn from the input. For the LM706A0-Q1 to go into sleep mode, the device must be programmed for PFM mode.
