Frequency and Operation Mode Selection

The TPS548B28 provides forced CCM operation for tight output ripple application and auto-skip Eco-mode for high light-load efficiency. The TPS548B28 allows users to select the switching frequency and operation mode by connecting a resistor from the MODE pin to AGND pin. Table 7-1 lists the resistor values for the switching frequency and operation mode selection. TI recommends ±1% tolerance resistors with a typical temperature coefficient of ±100 ppm/°C.

The MODE state will be set and latched during the internal power-on delay period. Changing the MODE pin resistance after the power-on delay will not change the status of the device. The internal circuit will set the MODE pin status to 600 kHz / skip-mode if MODE pin is left open during the power-on delay period.

To make sure the internal circuit detects the desired option correctly, do not place any capacitor on the MODE pin.
