ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The l denotes the specifi cations which apply over the full operating
temperature range, otherwise specifi cations are at T
A
= 25°C (Note 2), V
IN1
= 3.3V, V
IN2
= 15V, V
RUN
= 3.3V, SHDN = 0V,
MODE/PLLIN = 0V unless otherwise noted.
Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may
cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum
Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The LTC3852 is tested under pulsed load conditions such that
T
J
≈ T
A
. The LTC3852E is guaranteed to meet specifi cations from
0°C to 85°C junction temperature. Specifi cations over the –40°C to
125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The
LTC3852I is guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range. T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature, T
A
and
power dissipation P
D
according to the following formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
• 38°C/W)
Note 3: The LTC3852 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V
ITH
to a
specifi ed voltage and measures the resultant V
FB
.
Note 4: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency. See Applications information.
Note 5: Rise and fall times are measured using 10% and 90% levels. Delay
times are measured using 50% levels. Rise and fall times are assured by
design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 6: The minimum on-time condition is specifi ed for an inductor
peak-to-peak ripple current equal to 40% of I
MAX
(see Minimum On-Time
Considerations in the Applications Information Section).
Note 7: V
IN1
= 3.3V; Connect V
PUMP
