Low Dropout Operation (100% Duty Cycle)

The device offers a low dropout operation by entering 100% duty cycle mode if the input voltage comes close to the target output voltage. In this mode, the high-side MOSFET switch is constantly turned on. This is particularly useful in battery-powered applications to achieve the longest operation time by taking full advantage of the whole battery voltage range. The minimum input voltage to maintain a minimum output voltage is given by:
Equation 2. V I N , M I N =   V O U T +   R D S ( O N ) +   R L I O U T , M A X

where

  • VIN,MIN is the minimum input voltage to maintain an output voltage.
  • IOUT,MAX is the maximum output current.
  • RDS(on) is the high-side FET ON-resistance.
  • RL is the inductor ohmic resistance (DCR).
