Note that the maximum ambient temperature consistent with these
specifications is determined by specific operating conditions in
conjunction with board layout, the rated package thermal impedance and
other environmental factors.
Note 4: This IC includes over temperature protection that is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions. The maximum
rated junction temperature will be exceeded when this protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified absolute maximum operating
junction temperature may impair device reliability or permanently damage
the device. The overtemperature protection level is not production tested.
Note 5: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency. See Applications Information.
Note 6: For application concerned with pin creepage and clearance
distances at high voltages, the MSOP package should be used. See
Applications Information.
Note 7: At very high input voltages, the minimum output voltage that can
be maintained is limited to V
IN
– 65V if the load current is less than 5mA.
Refer to the High Input Voltage Considerations in the Operation section.
