The transition from low current operation begins In continuous mode, the input current of the converter can when the peak inductor current falls below a level set by the be approximated by the sum of two square waves with burst clamp. Lower inductor values result in higher ripple duty cycles of approximately V current which causes this to occur at lower load currents. OUT1/VIN and VOUT2/VIN. To prevent large voltage transients, a low equivalent series This causes a dip in effi ciency in the upper range of low resistance (ESR) input capacitor sized for the maximum current operation. In Burst Mode operation, lower inductor RMS current must be used. Some capacitors have a values will cause the burst frequency to increase. de-rating spec for maximum RMS current.
