The internal oscillator runs at its nominal frequency (f
when the PGOOD pin is pulled high (to INTV

PGOOD pin above and below 1.2V will cause the internal
oscillator to injection-lock to an external clock signal

clamp present in Burst Mode operation is removed,
providing constant frequency discontinuous operation
over the widest possible output current range. In this
mode the synchronous MOSFET is forced on once every
10 clock cycles to recharge the bootstrap capacitor. This
minimizes audible noise while maintaining reasonably
high efficiency.
Inductor Value Calculation
The operating frequency and inductor selection are inter-
related in that higher operating frequencies allow the use
of smaller inductor and capacitor values. So why would
anyone ever choose to operate at lower frequencies with
larger components? The answer is efficiency. A higher
frequency generally results in lower efficiency because of
MOSFET gate charge losses. In addition to this basic trade
off, the effect of inductor value on ripple current and low
current operation must also be considered.
The inductor value has a direct effect on ripple current. The
inductor ripple current I
tance or frequency and increases with higher V
Accepting larger values of I
inductances, but results in higher output voltage ripple
and greater core losses. A reasonable starting point for
setting ripple current is I
the maximum I
The inductor value also has an effect on low current
operation. The transition to low current operation begins
when the inductor current reaches zero while the bottom
MOSFET is on. Burst Mode operation begins when the
average inductor current required results in a peak current
below 25% of the current limit determined by R
Lower inductor values (higher I
at higher load currents, which can cause a dip in efficiency
in the upper range of low current operation. In Burst Mode
operation, lower inductance values will cause the burst
frequency to decrease.
