ADVANCE INFORMATION
The device offers a low input-to-output voltage differential by entering 100% duty cycle mode. In this mode, the high-side MOSFET switch is constantly turned on. The minimum input voltage to maintain output voltage regulation, depending on the load current and the output voltage level, is calculated as:
where
To maintain fixed frequency switching, the device requires a minimum off-time of 50ns (typical), 60ns (maximum). If this limit is reached during a switching pulse, the device skips switching pulses to maintain output voltage regulation. If the input voltage decreases further, the device enters 100% mode.
