Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: The LTC3776E is guaranteed to meet specified performance from
0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating 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 gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency.
Note 5: The LTC3776 is tested in a feedback loop that servos ITH to a
specified voltage and measures the resultant VFB voltage.
Note 6: Peak current sense voltage is reduced dependent on duty cycle to
a percentage of value as shown in Figure 2.
