APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Burst Mode OPERATION (LT1976 ONLY)
To enhance efficiency at light loads, the LT1976 automati-
cally switches to Burst Mode operation which keeps the
output capacitor charged to the proper voltage while mini-
mizing the input quiescent current. During Burst Mode
operation, the LT1976 delivers short bursts of current to
the output capacitor followed by sleep periods where the
output power is delivered to the load by the output capaci-
tor. In addition, V
duced to typically 45μA and 125μA respectively during the
sleep time. As the load current decreases towards a no
load condition, the percentage of time that the LT1976
operates in sleep mode increases and the average input
current is greatly reduced resulting in higher efficiency.
The minimum average input current depends on the V
V
network and Schottky diode leakage. It can be approxi-
mated by the following equation:

Example: For V
During the sleep portion of the Burst Mode cycle, the V
pin voltage is held just below the level needed for normal
operation to improve transient response. See the Typical
Performance Characteristics section for burst and tran-
sient response waveforms.
If a no load condition can be anticipated, the supply current
can be further reduced by cycling the SHDN pin at a rate
higher than the natural no load burst frequency. Figure 6
shows Burst Mode operation with the SHDN pin. V
