7.4.3 Active Mode

The TLVM236x5 is in active mode whenever the EN pin is above VEN_RISE, VIN is greater than VIN (min), and no other fault conditions are present. The simplest way to enable the operation is to connect the EN pin to VIN, which allows self start-up when the applied input voltage exceeds the minimum VIN (min).

Depending on the load current, input voltage, and output voltage, the TLVM236x5 is in one of five modes:

  • Continuous conduction mode (CCM) with fixed switching frequency (fSW) when load current is above half of the inductor current ripple
  • Auto mode - Light Load Operation: PFM where fSW is decreased at very light load
  • FPWM mode - Light Load Operation: Continuous conduction mode (CCM) when the load current is lower than half of the inductor current ripple
  • Minimum on time: At high input voltage and low output voltages, the fSW is reduced to maintain regulation
  • Dropout mode: When fSW is reduced to minimize voltage dropout
