independent of switching duty cycle. The maximum load
current, given by the following formula under continuous
conduction mode, is less than the Current Limit due to the
ripple current.
where:
subharmonic oscillation may cause low frequency
oscillation, as shown in Figure 13. Similar to current mode
control, this oscillation occurs at the duty cycle greater than
50% and can be alleviated by using a larger inductor value.
The current limit threshold is reduced to Foldback Current
when the FB pin falls below Foldback Threshold. This
feature protects the IC and external components under the
power up or overload conditions.

headroom to turn on the power switch. This in turn reduces
IC power dissipation and improves overall system
efficiency. The BOOST pin can be connected to an external
boost-strapping circuit which typically uses a 0.1 mF capacitor
and a 1N914 or 1N4148 diode, as shown in Figure 1. When the
power switch is turned on, the voltage on the BOOST pin is
equal to

discussion of this current is conducted in Thermal
Consideration section. A 0.1 mF capacitor is usually adequate
for maintaining the Boost pin voltage during the on time.
BIAS Pin (CS51412 and CS51414 Only)
control circuitry of the IC. The BIAS pin voltage should be
between 3.3 V and 6.0 V. If the BIAS pin voltage falls below
that range, use a diode to prevent current drain from the
BIAS pin. Powering the IC with a voltage lower than the
regulator's input voltage reduces the IC power dissipation
and improves energy transfer efficiency.

power switch keeps open and the supply current reduces to

rise to an excessive in-rush current which can be detrimental
to the inductor, IC and catch diode. In V

compensation capacitor which forces V
