GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each regulator can be independently switched off to fully isolate the load from the power supply. The PFM architecture will automatically adjust switching frequency at light loads in order to maintain power conversion efficiencies in excess of 90% over a wide output power range. FEATURES
