The device compares the Band-Gap reference voltage with the feedback voltage from the output through divider network. In TON phase, the energy is transferred from the battery to the inductor. The switch is turned off after a maximum on time set to 2.5µs. In TOFF phase, the energy stored in the inductor is transferred to the load. This process is continuously performed to ensure stable output voltage. Until the output voltage reaches the expected value. Therefore, in case of light load, the device works in PFM mode. In heavy load condition, the device works in continuous mode, the frequency range up to a maximum 150 KHz set by the built in oscillator. In over current conditions, the Ton time is shorted; the switching frequency will be higher than 150 KHz.
