Resistors
With light loads, the MOSFET switches on for one or
more cycles and then switches off, much like in tradi-
tional PFM converters. To increase light-load efficiency,
the current limit for the first two pulses is set to one-half
the peak current limit. If those pulses bring the output
voltage into regulation, the voltage comparator keeps

the MOSFET off, and the current limit remains at one-half
the peak current limit. If the output voltage is out of
regulation after two consecutive pulses, the current limit
for the next pulse will equal the full current limit.
With heavy loads, the MOSFET first switches twice at
one-half the peak current value. Subsequently, it stays
on until the switch current reaches the full current limit,
and then turns off. After it is off for 2.3µs, the MOSFET
switches on once more, and remains on until the switch
current again reaches its limit. This cycle repeats until
the output is in regulation.
A benefit of this control scheme is that it is highly effi-
cient over a wide range of input/output ratios and load
currents. Additionally, PFM converters do not operate
with constant-frequency switching, and have relaxed
stability criterion (unlike PWM converters). As a result,
their external components require smaller values.
With PFM converters, the output voltage ripple is not
concentrated at the oscillator frequency (as it is with
PWM converters). So for applications where the ripple
frequency is important, the PWM control scheme must
be used. However, for many other applications, the
smaller capacitors and lower supply current of the PFM
control scheme make it the better choice. The output
voltage ripple with the MAX774/MAX775/MAX776 can
be held quite low. For example, using the circuit of
Figure 2, only 100mV of output ripple is produced when
generating a -5V at 1A output from a +5V input.
