JAJSIL8A February 2020 – July 2020 LM76005
PRODUCTION DATA
CCM operation is employed in the LM76005 when the load current is higher than ½ of the peak-to-peak inductor current. If the load current is decreased, the device enters DCM mode. In CCM operation, the frequency of operation is constant and fixed unless the minimum tON or tOFF are exceeded which causes the part to enter foldback mode (refer to Section 7.3.5 for details). In these cases, PWM is still maintained, but the frequency of operation is folded back (reduced) to maintain proper regulation.
