PRODUCTION DATA
As the load current decreases, the device enters Power Save Mode (PSM) operation. PSM occurs when the inductor current becomes discontinuous, which is when it reaches 0 A during a switching cycle. In Power Save Mode, the output voltage rises slightly above the nominal output voltage. This effect is minimized by increasing the output capacitor or inductor value.
