PRODUCTION DATA.
When the forced continuous conduction mode (FCCM) is selected via PMBus (MODE_SOFT_START_CONFIG), the controller maintains continuous conduction mode even in light-load condition. In FCCM mode, switching frequency maintains a constant level over the entire load range which is suitable for applications that need tight control of the switching frequency at a cost of lower efficiency. During the soft-start time, the controller maintains discontinuous conduction mode, and then switches to continuous conduction mode if FCCM is selected after the soft-start operation is completed.
