NOTES: 1. These parameters, although guaranteed over the
recommended operating conditions, are not tested in
production.
where 0 ≤ V(ISENSE) ≤ 0.8V
4. Output frequency equals oscillator frequency for the
x8C43.
2. Parameter measured at trip point of latch.
3. Gain ratio is defined as:
5. PSRR of VREF, Error Amp and PWM Comparator
combination.
