No-audible skip mode
If SKIP pin is tied to V
33 kHz is enabled. At light load condition, If there is not a new switching cycle within a 30 µs
(typ.) period, a no-audible skip mode cycle begins.
Figure 32. No audible skip mode
The low side switch is turned on until the output voltage crosses about Vreg + 1 %. Then the
high side MOSFET is turned on for a fixed on time period. Afterwards the low side switch is
enabled until the inductor current reaches the zero-crossing threshold. This keeps the
switching frequency higher than 33 kHz. As a consequence of the control, the regulated
voltage can be slightly higher than Vreg (up to 1 % ).
If, due to the load, the frequency is higher than 33 kHz, the device works like in skip mode.
No-audible skip mode reduces audio frequency noise that may occur in pulse skip mode at
very light loads, keeping the efficiency higher than in PWM mode.
