OPERATION

use peak-buck current mode control in buck region

(Figure 2). Switch C is always off and switch D is always

on. At the beginning of every cycle, switch A is turned on

and the inductor current ramps up. When the inductor

current hits the peak buck current threshold commanded

phase, switch A is turned off and switch B is turned on

for the rest of the cycle. Switches A and B will alternate,

behaving like a typical synchronous buck regulator.

LT8253A use peak-buck current mode control in buck-

boost region (Figure 3). Switch C is always turned on for

the beginning preset cycle and switch D is always turned

on for the remaining cycle. At the beginning of every

cycle, switches A and C are turned on and the inductor

current ramps up. After preset cycle, switch C is turned off

and switch D is turned on, and the inductor keeps ramping

up. When the inductor current hits the peak buck current

parator A3 during (A+D) phase, switch A is turned off and

switch B is turned on for the rest of the cycle.
