LNCLIMILIMSEL
0x3
RW
Current limit level selection for current limiter in LN mode
High-side current limiter’s current limit level selection in low noise mode. The recommended setting is calculated by LNCLI-
MILIMSEL=(I_MAX+40mA)*1.5/(5mA*(1))-1, where I_MAX is the maximum average current allowed to the load,
and 40mA represents the current ripple with some margin, and the factor of 1.5 accounts for detecting error and other varia-
tions. For strong battery, it is recommended to have I_MAX=200mA. It should never have I_MAX higher than 200mA to
avoid reliability issues. Reset with POR, Hard Pin Reset, or BOD reset.

LPCLIMILIMSEL
0x3
RW
Current limit level selection for current limiter in LP mode
High-side current limiter’s current limit level selection in low power mode. It is calculated by LPCLIMILIMSEL=(I_MAX
+40mA)*1.5/(5mA*(1))-1. To optimize the power efficiency, it is recommended to have PFETCNT=7 and (IMAX
+40mA)*1.5=80mA, and consequently calculated LPCLIMILIMSEL=1. Reset with POR, Hard Pin Reset, or BOD reset.

Current Limit In Bypass Mode
Set current limit in bypass mode when BYPLIMEN equals one. The limit is from 20mA to 320mA, with 20mA/step. Reset
with POR, Hard Pin Reset, or BOD Reset.

NFETCNT
0x7
RW
NFET switch number selection
NFET power switch count number. The selected number of switches are 1. This value applies to both LN and
LP mode. Because of this, when transitioning from LN to LP mode, software may need to update the NFETCNT setting
desired for LP mode while still in LN mode. This may cause a very momentary efficiency hit. Reset with POR, Hard Pin
Reset, or BOD Reset.

PFETCNT
0x7
RW
PFET switch number selection
PFET power switch count number. The selected number of switches are 1. This value applies to both LN and
LP mode. Because of this, when transitioning from LN to LP mode, software may need to update the PFETCNT setting
desired for LP mode while still in LN mode. This may cause a very momentary efficiency hit. Reset with POR, Hard Pin
Reset, or BOD Reset.

RW
Force DCDC into CCM mode in low noise operation
When this bit is set to 1 in low noise mode, the zero detector is configured as zero-crossing detector and the DCDC will be
in forced CCM mode. The threshold set by ZDETILIMSEL will be ignored. When this bit is set to 0 in low noise mode, the
zero detector is configured as reverse-current limiter and the DCDC will be in DCM mode. The reverse current limit level is
set by ZDETILIMSEL. In low power mode, the zero detector is always configured as zero-crossing detector. Reset with
POR, Hard Pin Reset, or BOD reset.
