APW8879 Overview
The APW8879 designed with a constant on-time control architecture can step down high voltage to acmodate low-voltage chipset for IMPV8 applications. The APW8879 is equipped with an automatic PFM/PWM mode operation. At light load, the converter operates in the PFM mode to reduce the switching losses and provide high efficiency.
