Here after are summarized the primary features of the regulator(s):
–
Synchronous rectification
–
Automatic low side disabling when current in the inductance reaches 0 to optimize
efficiency at low load
efficiency at low load
–
Pulse skipping control
–
Internally generated PWM
–
Cycle by cycle current limiting using internal current sensor
–
Protected against load short circuit
–
Soft start circuitry
–
Under voltage signal (both continuous and latched) accessible through serial
interface.

Regulator block diagram
Depending on the load current, there could be the necessity to add a Schottky diode on
output to reduce internal thermal dissipation. This diode must be placed near to the pin and
must be fast recovery and low series resistance type.

For detail about pulse skipping please refer to main switching regulator
The output voltage will be externally set by a divider network connected on feedback pin. To
reduce as much as possible the regulation voltage error L6460 has the possibility to switch
between four regulator feedback voltage references (and, as a consequence, four under-
