7.3.7 Set Switching Frequency and Operation Mode

TPS548C26 device provides programmable operation mode including the forced CCM operation for tight output voltage ripple and auto-skipping Eco-mode for high light-load efficiency. The TPS548C26 device allows users to select the switching frequency and operation mode through the pin strap detection on MODE pin. #GUID-EE58177B-4DAC-4548-90C2-941949653C7B/T5173696-33 lists the resistor values for the switching frequency and operation mode selections. TI recommends ±1% tolerance resistors with a typical temperature coefficient of ±100 ppm/°C.

The FCCM bit is set during initial power-on and latched after the power conversion is enabled (EN=high). While the device is enabled, a write to FCCM bit is acknowledged but the operation mode does not change until an EN toggle happens.

Note: The pin strap detection happens at the first stage of power-up sequence. After the detection finishes, the detection results are latched in and do not change during the following operation. If a new selection is desired, toggling VCC (or AVIN) is required. Toggling the EN pin does not affect the pin strap detection results.
