Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: The LTC1872BE is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the – 40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls.
Note 3: TJ is calculated from the ambient temperature TA and power
dissipation PD according to the following formula:
TJ = TA + (PD • θJA°C/W)
Note 4: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5: The LTC1872B is tested in a feedback loop that servos VFB to the
output of the error amplifier.
Note 6: Guaranteed by design at duty cycle = 30%. Peak current sense
voltage is VREF/6.67 at duty cycle <40%, and decreases as duty cycle
increases due to slope compensation as shown in Figure 3.
