During Burst Mode operation, the voltage on the SYNC/MODE pin determines the burst clamp level. This level sets the minimum peak inductor current, IBURST, for each switching cycle according to the following equation: V I AV V BURST BURST =+ 6 042 / . VBURST is the voltage on the SYNC/MODE pin. IBURST can be programmed in the range of 0A to 3.5A, which cor- responds to a VBURST range of 0.42V to 1V. As the output load current drops, the peak inductor current decreases to keep the output voltage in regulation. When the output load current demands a peak inductor current that is less than IBURST, the burst clamp will force the peak inductor current to remain equal to IBURST regardless of further reductions in the load current. Since the average inductor current is therefore greater than the output load current, the voltage on the ITH pin will decrease. When the ITH voltage drops to 330mV, sleep mode is enabled in which both power MOSFETs are shut off along with most of the circuitry to minimize power consumption. All circuitry is turned back on and the power MOSFETs begin switching again when the output voltage drops out of regulation. The value for IBURST is determined by the desired amount of output voltage ripple. As the value of IBURST increases, the sleep time between pulses and the output voltage ripple increases. The burst clamp voltage, VBURST, can be set by a resistor divider from the INTVCC pin. Alternatively, the SYNC/MODE pin may be tied directly to the VFB pin to set VBURST = 0.6V (IBURST = 1A), or through an additional divider resistor (R3) to set VBURST = 0.46V to 0.6V (see Figure 2). Pulse-skipping, which is a compromise between low output voltage ripple and efficiency, can be implemented by con- necting the SYNC/MODE pin to ground. This sets IBURST to 0A. In this condition, the peak inductor current is limited by the minimum on-time of the current comparator and the lowest output voltage ripple is achieved while still opera- ting discontinuously. During very light output loads, pulse-skipping allows only a few switching cycles to be skipped while maintaining the output voltage in regulation. Frequency Synchronization The LTC3602’s internal oscillator can be synchronized to an external clock signal. During synchronization, the top MOSFET turn-on is locked to the falling edge of the external frequency source. The synchronization frequency range is 300kHz to 3MHz. Synchronization only occurs if the external frequency is greater than the frequency set by the RT resistor. Because slope compensation is generated by the oscillator’s internal ramp, the external frequency should be set 25% higher than the frequency set by the RT resistor to ensure that adequate slope compensation is present. When synchronized, the LTC3602 will operate in pulse-skipping mode. INTVCC Regulator The LTC3602 features an integrated P-channel low dropout linear regulator (LDO) that supplies power to the INTVCC supply pin from the PVIN pin. This LDO supply has been designed to deliver up to 35mA of load current for the powering of the internal gate drivers and other internal circuitry. A small external load may also be applied provided that the total current from the INTVCC supply does not exceed 35mA. The INTVCC pin should be bypassed with no less than a 0.22μF ceramic capacitor. A 1μF ceramic capacitor is suitable for most applications.
