TPS40056: Operation mode of TPS40056

Part Number: TPS40056


Dear, All

Customers are considering TPS40056.
The following is described in data sheet P7.
'It has two quadrant operation and can source or sink output current, providing the best transient response.'
However, this is inconsistent with the description in datasheet P9.
'SELECTING THE INDUCTOR VALUE
The inductor value connected the magnitude of ripple current in the output capacitors as well as the load current at which the converter enters discontinuous mode.'
Please tell me which is correct.

Thanks, Masami M.
