APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
No additional components or loading is allowed on this The LT8331 will not enter Burst Mode operation at low pin. The INTVCC rising threshold (to allow soft-start and output loads while synchronized to an external clock, but switching) is typically 2.6V. The INTVCC falling threshold instead will pulse skip to maintain regulation. The LT8331 (to stop switching and reset soft-start) is typically 2.5V. may be synchronized over a 100kHz to 625kHz range. The To improve efficiency across all loads, the majority of RT resistor should be chosen to set the LT8331 switching INTV frequency equal to or below the lowest synchronization CC current can be drawn from the BIAS pin (4.4V ≤ BIAS ≤ V input. For example, if the synchronization signal will be IN – 0.4V) instead of the VIN pin. For flyback or SEPIC applications with V 500kHz and higher, the RT should be selected for 500kHz. IN often greater than VOUT, the BIAS pin can be directly connected to VOUT. If the BIAS For some applications it is desirable for the LT8331 to pin is connected to a supply other than VOUT, be sure to operate in pulse-skipping mode, offering two major differ- bypass the pin with a local ceramic capacitor. ences from Burst Mode operation.

T resistor required for a desired switching frequency can be calculated using: The LT8331 minimum on-time, minimum off-time and 32.85 switching frequency (fOSC) define the allowable minimum RT = – 9.5 and maximum duty cycles of the converter (see Minimum f SW On-Time, Minimum Off-Time, and Switching Frequency in the Electrical Characteristics table). where RT is in kΩ and fSW is the desired switching fre- quency in MHz.
