2.10 Eco-mode Operation

At light load currents, the TPS54232 is designed to operate in pulse skipping Eco-mode. When the peak inductor current is lower than 100 mA typical, the device enters Eco-mode.

Figure 2-11 shows Eco-mode operation, channel 1(C1) shows the output voltage while channel 2(C2) shows the switching node (PH).
