APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
The divided down voltage at the “–” input to the comparator
is compared to an internal 1.25V reference. This reference
is separate from the 1.25V reference used by the voltage
comparator and current comparator for regulation and is
not disabled by the shutdown pin, therefore the low-battery
detection is operational even when the rest of the chip is
shut down. The comparator is functional down to an input
voltage of 2.5V. Thus, the output will provide a valid state
even when the rest of the chip does not have sufficient
voltage to operate. For best performance, the value of the
pull-up resistor should be high enough that the output is
pulled down to ground when sinking 200 A or less.
Suppressing Burst Mode Operation
Normally, enabling Burst Mode operation is desired due to
its superior efficiency at low load currents (see Figure 7).
However, in certain applications it may be desirable to
inhibit this feature. Some reasons for doing so are:
1. To eliminate audible noise from certain types of induc-
tors at light loads.

4. Tighter load regulation (< 1%).
Burst Mode operation is disabled by applying a CMOS
logic high voltage (> 2.1V) to Pin 4. When it is disabled, the
voltage comparator limit is raised high enough so that it no
longer is involved in regulation; however it is still active
and is useful as a voltage clamp to keep the output from
overshooting.
Note that since the inductor current must reverse to
regulate the output at zero load when Burst Mode opera-
tion is disabled, the minimum inductance (L
during Inductor Core Selection is no longer applicable.
Checking Transient Response
The regulator loop response can be checked by looking at
the load transient response. Switching regulators take
several cycles to respond to a step in DC (resistive) load
current. When a load step occurs, V

benefit from the efficiency advantages of Burst Mode
operation, the output capacitor ESR and minimum
capacitance requirements (which may falsely trigger
Burst Mode operation if not met) can be relaxed if Burst
Mode operation is disabled.
operation guarantees switching independent of the
load on the primary. This allows power to be taken from
the auxiliary winding independently.
