Note 8: Transconductance and voltage gain refer to the internal amplifier
exclusive of the voltage divider. To calculate gain and transconductance,
refer to the SENSE pin on the fixed voltage parts. Divide values shown by
Note 3: Minimum input voltage is not measured directly, but is guaranteed
by other tests. It is defined as the voltage where internal bias lines are still
regulated so that the reference voltage and oscillator frequency remain
constant. Actual minimum input voltage to maintain a regulated output will
depend on output voltage and load current. See Applications Information.

Note 9: Slope compensation is the current subtracted from the switch
current limit at 80% duty cycle. See Maximum Output Load Current in the
Applications Information section for further details.
Note 10: Minimum on-time is 400ns typical. For a 200kHz operating
frequency this means the minimum duty cycle is 8%. In frequency
foldback mode, the effective duty cycle will be less than 8%.
Note 5: Boost current is the current flowing into the boost pin with the pin
held 5V above input voltage. It flows only during switch on time.
