SLVU263A August 2008 – October 2021 TPS54231
At light load currents, the TPS54231 is designed to operate in pulse skipping Eco-mode. When the peak inductor current is lower than 100 mA typical, the device enters Eco-mode.
Figure 2-11 shows Eco-mode operation, channel 1(C1) shows the output voltage while channel 2(C2) shows the switching node (PH).
