7.4.1 Light-Load Operation

The LM21215A maintains high efficiency when operating at light loads. Whenever the load current is reduced to a level less than half the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current, the device enters discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) and prevents negative inductor current. The low-side MOSFET then operates in diode emulation mode (DEM), conducting only positive inductor current. Calculate the critical conduction boundary using Equation 2.

Equation 2. LM21215A q_Iboundary_nosb87.gif

Several diagrams are shown in Figure 27 illustrating continuous conduction mode (CCM), discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), and the boundary condition.

When the inductor current reaches zero, the SW node becomes high impedance. Resonant ringing occurs at SW as a result of the LC tank circuit formed by the filter inductor and the parasitic capacitance at the SW node. At very light loads, usually below 500 mA, several pulses may be skipped in between switching cycles, effectively reducing the switching frequency and further improving light-load efficiency.
