LM25010-Q1: LM25010-Q1

Part Number: LM25010-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM25010

Hello, 

I am using LM25010 DC to DC converter IC in one of our board. 

in efficiency i seeing different behavior at low current mode. efficiency of the SMPS is less at low current. is that any specific reason why it measuring low. and is their any improvement possible?  

supply through SMPS direct 5 Volt supply at inductor output
