6.3.4 Operation Modes (BYPASS, DEM, FPWM)

The device supports bypass mode, forced PWM (FPWM) and diode emulation mode (DEM) operation. The mode can be changed on the fly and is set by the MODE-pin. Bypass mode is automatically activated for VOUT < VI. In dual-device stacked operation both devices must use the same mode.

The device operation mode is set to DEM for VMODE < 0.4V and to FPWM for VMODE > 1.2V .

Table 6-5 Mode-pin Settings
Operation Mode MODE-pin
DEM VMODE < 0.4V
FPWM VMODE > 1.2V

Details about the different operation modes are described in table Operation Modes.

Table 6-6 Operation Modes
Operation Mode Description
BYPASS VI is connected to VOUT (no regulation) while current flow from VOUT to VI is prevented for DEM selection and limited to VNCLTH for FPWM selection.
DEM Current flow from VOUT to VI is prevented. The SW-pin voltage is monitored during the high-side on time and the high-side switch is turned off when the voltage falls below the zero current detection threshold VZCD. This improves light load efficiency.
FPWM Converter keeps switching also for light load with fixed frequency in continuous conduction mode (CCM) for best light load transient response.

The device enters and exits Bypass mode when the conditions in table Bypass Mode Entry, Exit are met.
