Pulse-Skip and No-Audible Pulse-Skip Modes

High efficiency at light load conditions is achieved by PM6675 entering the Pulse-Skip Mode

(if enabled). When one of the two fixed output voltages is set, Pulse-Skip power saving is a

default feature. At light load conditions the zero-crossing comparator truncates the low-side

switch on-time as soon as the inductor current becomes negative; in this way the

comparator determines the On-Time duration instead of the output ripple (see Figure 9).

Figure 9.

Inductor current and output voltage at light load with Pulse-Skip

As a consequence, the output capacitor is left floating and its discharge depends solely on

the current drained from the load. When the output ripple on the pin COMP falls under the

reference, a new shot is triggered and the next cycle begins. The Pulse-Skip mode is

naturally obtained enabling the zero-crossing comparator and automatically takes part in the

C.O.T. algorithm when the inductor current is about half the ripple current amount, i.e.

migrating from continuous conduction mode (C.C.M.) to discontinuous conduction mode

(D.C.M.).

The output current threshold related to the transition between PWM Mode and Pulse-Skip

Mode can be approximately calculated as:

Equation 19

At higher loads, the inductor current never crosses the zero and the device works in pure

PWM mode with a switching frequency around the nominal value.

A physiological consequence of Pulse-Skip Mode is a more noisy and asynchronous (than

normal conditions) output, mainly due to very low load. If the Pulse-Skip is not compatible

with the application, the PM6675, when set in adjustable mode-of-operation, allows the user

to choose between forced-PWM and No-Audible Pulse-Skip alternative modes (see

Section 6.1.4: Mode-of-operation selection on page 24

for details).
