PRODUCTION DATA.
If the input or output voltage change such that they become close to the same value, a condition known as drop-out is created. During drop-out conditions the output LED current may fall out of regulation. If the input reaches the target output voltage or below, the LED current can drop to zero. There are two stages of drop-out when operating with a hysteretic device like the TPS92518-Q1. The two stages are described in Early Drop-Out (Boot Capacitor Voltage >> VBOOT-UVLO) and Full Drop-Out (Boot Capacitor Voltage reaching VBOOT-UVLO).
