stant-frequency pulse-width-modulation (PWM) con-

trollers that switch the MOSFET unnecessarily.

When the output voltage is too low, an error comparator

sets a flip-flop, which turns on the internal P-channel

MOSFET and begins a switching cycle (Figure 3). As

shown in Figure 4, the inductor current ramps up linear-

ly, charging the output capacitor and servicing the

load. The MOSFET turns off when the current limit is

reached, or when the maximum on-time is exceeded

while the output voltage is in regulation. Otherwise, the

MOSFET remains on, allowing a duty cycle up to 100%

to ensure the lowest possible dropout voltage. Once

the MOSFET turns off, the flip-flop resets, diode D1

turns on, and the current through the inductor ramps

back down, transferring the stored energy to the output

capacitor and load. The MOSFET remains off until the

0.5µs minimum off-time expires and the inductor cur-

rent ramps down to zero, and the output voltage drops

back below the set point.
