Skipping Cycle Mode
when the output power demand drops below a given level.
This is accomplished by monitoring the FB pin. In normal
operation, pin 2 imposes a peak current accordingly to the
load value. If the load demand decreases, the internal loop
asks for less peak current. When this setpoint reaches a
determined level, the IC prevents the current from
decreasing further down and starts to blank the output
pulses: the IC enters the so−called skip cycle mode, also
named controlled burst operation. The power transfer now
depends upon the width of the pulse bunches (Figure 18).
Suppose we have the following component values:
Lp, primary inductance = 1 mH
F
Ip skip = 200 mA (or 333 mV/R
The theoretical power transfer is therefore:
20 ms over a recurrent period of 100 ms, then the total
power transfer is: 1.2 . 0.2 = 240 mW.

a look at the operation mode versus the FB level
immediately gives the necessary insight:
default), the peak current cannot exceed 1 V/R
the IC enters the skip cycle mode, the peak current cannot go
below Vpin1 / 3.3. The user still has the flexibility to alter
this 1 V by either shunting pin 1 to ground through a resistor
or raising it through a resistor up to the desired level.
Grounding pin 1 permanently invalidates the skip cycle
operation.
