7.4.3.1 CCM Mode

In CCM operation, inductor current has a continuous triangular waveform. The HS switch is on at the beginning of a switching cycle and the LS switch is turned off the end of each switching cycle. In auto mode, the TPS7H4010-SEP operates in CCM when the load current is higher than ½ of the peak-to-peak inductor current (ILripple). In FPWM mode, the TPS7H4010-SEP operates in CCM regardless of load.

In CCM operation, the switching frequency is typically constant, unless tON-MIN, tOFF-MIN, or IPEAK-MIN conditions are met. The constant switching frequency is determined by RT pin setting, or the external synchronization clock frequency. The duty cycle is also constant in CCM: D = VOUT / VIN if loss is ignored, regardless of load. The peak-to-peak inductor ripple is constant with the same VIN and VOUT, regardless of load.

With very high or very low supply voltages, when the tON-MIN or tOFF-MIN condition is met, the frequency reduces to maintain VOUT regulation with even higher or lower VIN, respectively. When the IPEAK_MIN condition is met in auto mode, switching frequency will fold back to provide higher efficiency. IPEAK_MIN is disabled in FPWM mode.
