Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
In Auto mode, the LMZM33606 operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light loads. In DCM, the inductor current stops flowing when it reaches 0 A. Additionally, at very light loads, the switching frequency reduces (PFM operation) to regulate the required load current, thus improving efficiency by reducing switching losses. At heavier loads, when the inductor current valley is above 0 A, the device operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM), where the switching frequency is fixed and set by the RT pin.
