7.4.2 Forced Continuous-Conduction Mode

When the SS/PFM pin is terminated with a 47.5-kΩ or higher resistance, the TPS542A52 operates in forced continuous conduction mode (FCCM) for all load currents. During FCCM, the switching frequency is set by an internal oscillator for which the frequency can either be selected by the FSEL pin or an external clock on the SYNC pin.
