7.3.2.1 Pulse-Dependent MODE/SYNC Pin Control

Most systems that require more than a single mode of operation from the LMR43606-Q1 are controlled by digital circuitry such as a microprocessor. These systems can generate dynamic signals easily but have difficulty generating multi-level signals. Pulse-dependent MODE/SYNC pin control is useful with these systems. To initiate pulse-dependent MODE/SYNC pin control, a valid sync signal must be applied. Table 7-1 shows a summary of the pulse dependent mode selection settings.

Table 7-1 Pulse-Dependent Mode Selection Settings
MODE/SYNC INPUTMODE
> VMODE_HFPWM with spread spectrum factory setting
< VMODE_LAuto mode with spread spectrum factory setting
Synchronization ClockSYNC mode

Figure 7-3 shows the transition between auto mode and FPWM mode while in pulse-dependent MODE/SYNC control. The LMR43606-Q1 transitions to a new mode of operation after the time, tMODE. Figure 7-3 and Figure 7-4 show the details.

If MODE/SYNC voltage remains constant longer than tMODE, the LMR43606-Q1 enters either auto mode or FPWM mode with spread spectrum turned on (if factory setting is enabled) and MODE/SYNC continues to operate in pulse-dependent scheme.
