second half-cycle, the PWM turns on the high-side
MOSFET by connecting the capacitor to the MOSFET
gate by closing an internal switch between BST_ and
DH_. This provides the necessary enhancement voltage
to turn on the high-side switch, an action that “boosts”
the 5V gate-drive signal above the battery voltage.
Ringing seen at the high-side MOSFET gates (DH3 and
DH5) in discontinuous-conduction mode (light loads) is
a natural operating condition caused by the residual
energy in the tank circuit formed by the inductor and
stray capacitance at the LX_ nodes. The gate driver
negative rail is referred to LX_, so any ringing there is
directly coupled to the gate-drive supply.
