LTC1735
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 3:
The LTC1735 is tested in a feedback loop that servos V
OSENSE
to
the balance point for the error amplifier (V
ITH
= 1.2V).
Note 4:
Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being
delivered at the switching frequency. See Applications Information.
Note 5:
Oscillator frequency is tested by measuring the C
OSC
charge
current (I
OSC
) and applying the formula:
Note 6:
The minimum on-time condition corresponds to an inductor peak-
to-peak ripple current
≥40%
of I
MAX
(see Minimum On-Time
Considerations in the Applications Information section).
Note 7:
Rise and fall times are measured using 10% and 90% levels. Delay
times are measured using 50% levels.
Note 8:
The LTC1735E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
with statistical process controls. The LTC1735I specifications are
guaranteed over the full –40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.
