●Functional descriptions
1) PWM current mode DC/DC converter
While this IC is power ON, the lowest voltage of CH1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 is detected, PWM duty is decided to be 0.8V
and output voltage is kept invariably. As for the inputs of the PWM comparator as the feature of the PWM current mode, one
is overlapped with error components from the error amplifier, and the other is overlapped with a current sense signal that
controls the inductor current into Slope waveform to prevent sub harmonic oscillation. This output controls internal Nch Tr
via the RS latch. In the period where internal Nch Tr gate is ON, energy is accumulated in the external inductor, and in the
period where internal Nch Tr gate is OFF, energy is transferred to the output capacitor via external SBD.
This IC has many safety functions, and their detection signals stop switching operation at once.
2) Pulse skips control
This IC regulates the output voltage using an improved pulse-skip. In “pulse-skip” mode the error amplifier disables
“switching” of the power stages when it detects low output voltage and high input voltage. The oscillator halts and the
controller skip switching cycles. The error amplifier reactivates the oscillator and starts switching of the power stages again
when this IC detects low input voltage.
At light loads a conventional “pulse-skip” regulation mode is used. The “pulse-skip” regulation minimizes the operating
current because this IC does not switch continuously and hence the losses of the switching are reduced. When the error
amplifier disables “switching”, the load is also isolated from the input. This improved “pulse-skip” control is also referred to
as active-cycle control.

3) Soft start
This IC has soft start function.
The soft start function prevents large coil current.
Rush current at turning on is prevented by the soft start function.
After ENABLE, PWM is changed ‘L’ ‘H’, and UVLO is detected, soft start becomes effective for within typ 4.3ms and soft
start doesn't become effective even if ENABLE is changed ‘L’  ‘H’ after that.

4) FAULT
When the error condition occurs, boost operating is stopped by the protection function, and the error condition is outputted
from FAULT. After power ON, when the protection function is operating under about 4.3ms(typ.) have passed.
Once ENABLE change to ‘L’, FAULT status is reset
