PRODUCTION DATA
As shown in Figure 7-4, once the boundary of 1st valley QR operation is reached with increasing output power, the control clamps IPK to the maximum selected value IPK,MAX, and begins to reduce the secondary conduction time TOFF in CCM mode. This reduction in TOFF is proportional to increase in FB pin voltage, until 30% of the QR mode off-time to reach maximum 1.7× the QR mode output power delivery capability. Use a primary side magnetizing inductance LM large enough to not hit the frequency clamp during CCM mode and avoid any subharmonic oscillations which can increase output voltage ripple, depending on application requirements. In CCM mode, the clamping frequency for the switching frequency clamp is doubled to maximize the peak power capability. For long duration output power transients, the converter returns to 1st valley QR mode after expiry of the 10ms CCM timer for 4 switching cycles of QR mode operation and resumes CCM operation. This operation repeats every 10ms, until the power becomes lower so that the CCM operation is no longer needed. The device offers flexibility to enable or disable CCM mode operation with a resistor from the CFX pin to GND as per values in Table 7-4.
