This feature reduces the voltage under/overshoots at load steps from light to heavy load and vice versa. It is active in power save mode. It provides more headroom for both the voltage drop at a load step, and the voltage increase at a load throw-off. This improves load transient behavior. At light loads, in which the converter operates in PFM mode, the output voltage is regulated typically 1% higher than the nominal value. In case of a load transient from light load to heavy load, the output voltage drops until it reaches the PFM comparator low threshold set to –1% below the nominal value and enters PWM mode. During a load throw off from heavy load to light load, the voltage overshoot is also minimized due to active regulation turning on the low side MOSFET switch.
