Constant on time architecture
Figure 29
off-time constrain (350 ns typ.) is introduced to allow inductor valley current sensing on
synchronous switch. A minimum on-time (130 ns) is also introduced to assure the start-up
switching sequence.
PM6680A has a one-shot generator for each power section that turns on the high side
MOSFET when the following conditions are satisfied simultaneously: the PWM comparator
is high, the synchronous rectifier current is below the current limit threshold, and the
minimum off-time has timed out.
Once the on-time has timed out, the high side switch is turned off, while the synchronous
switch is turned on according to the anti-cross conduction circuitry management.
When the negative input voltage at the PWM comparator
down replica of the output voltage (see the external R1/R2 divider in
valley limit (determined by internal reference Vr = 0.9 V), the low-side MOSFET is turned off
according to the anti-cross conduction logic once again, and a new cycle begins.

In steady state the FB pin voltage is about Vr and the regulated output voltage depends on
the external divider:
