8.3.4.4 Full Duty-Cycle Switch

The TPS92830-Q1 device can flexibly switch between the internal PWM modulation mode and the 100% duty-cycle mode by using the FD input. Once V(FD) is higher than threshold VIH(FD), the internal PWM generator is bypassed and output is merely controlled by the PWM inputs.

If FD is HIGH, the PWMCHG current source is turned off and V(PWMCHG) decays to GND through the external resistor-capacitor circuit. When FD falls below the threshold, V(PWMCHG) increases from GND due to the internal charge current.

If FD is HIGH, PWM generator oscillation stops, and PWMOUT is controlled by PWM1 only.

External PWM inputs and internal PWM inputs are combined together for channel PWM dimming, or external PWM inputs can be used as channel enable inputs.
