  • Page 4: Product Description

    The operational input voltage range of the LX7175 is from 3 V to 5.5 V and it has two modes of operation selected externally by the MODE pin. When the MODE pin is high, the device operates in continuous PWM operation, and when it is tied low, it operates in power wave mode (PSM) with automatic transition between PWM and PSM mode depending on the load current.
