LTC1530
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS The q denotes specifications that apply over the full operating temperature
range, otherwise specifications are at –40°C ≤ TA ≤ 85°C. PVCC = 12V unless otherwise noted. (Note 3)

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: If IFB is taken below GND, it is clamped by an internal diode. This
pin handles input currents ≤ 100mA below GND without latch-up. In the
positive direction, it is not clamped to PVCC.
Note 3: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise
specified.
Note 4: The LTC1530 is tested in an op amp feedback loop which
regulates VSENSE or VOUT based on VCOMP = 2V for the error amplifier.
Note 5: The Open-loop DC gain and transconductance from the VFB pin to
the COMP pin are GERR and gmERR respectively. For fixed output voltage
versions, the actual open-loop DC gain and transconductance are GERR
and gmERR multiplied by the ratio 1.235/VOUT.
Note 6: The total voltage from the PVCC pin to the GND pin must be ≥ 8V
for the current limit protection circuit to be active.
Note 7: G1 and G2 begin to switch once PVCC is ≥ the undervoltage
lockout threshold voltage.
Note 8: Supply current in normal operation is dominated by the current
needed to charge and discharge the external FET gates. This current varies
with the LTC1530 operating frequency, supply voltage and the external
FETs used.
Note 9: The LTC1530 enters shutdown if COMP is pulled low.
Note 10: Slew rate is measured at the COMP pin on the transition from
shutdown to active mode.
