7 Specifications

7.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings

over operating free-air temperature range (unless otherwise noted) (1)(2)
MIN MAX UNIT
VINLDO12, VIN1, AVDD, VIN2, VINLDO1, VINLDO2, ENSW1, FB1, FB2, ENSW2, ENLDO1, ENLDO2, SYNC, FBL1, FBL2 −0.3 6 V
GND to GND SLUG ±0.3
Power dissipation, PD_MAX (TA = 85°C, TMAX = 125°C)(3) 1.17 W
Junction temperature, TJ-MAX 150 °C
Storage temperature, Tstg −65 150 °C
(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions: Bucks. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.
(3) In applications where high power dissipation and/or poor package thermal resistance is present, the maximum ambient temperature may have to be derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA-MAX) is dependent on the maximum operating junction temperature (TJ-MAX-OP = 125°C), the maximum power dissipation of the device in the application (PD-MAX), and the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the part/package in the application (RθJA), as given by the following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP − (RθJA × PD-MAX). See Application and Implementation.

7.2 ESD Ratings

VALUE UNIT
V(ESD) Electrostatic discharge Human-body model (HBM), per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001(1) ±2000 V
Charged-device model (CDM), per JEDEC specification JESD22-C101(2) ±750
(1) JEDEC document JEP155 states that 500-V HBM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.
(2) JEDEC document JEP157 states that 250-V CDM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.

7.3 Recommended Operating Conditions: Bucks

over operating free-air temperature range (unless otherwise noted)
MIN NOM MAX UNIT
VIN 2.8 5.5 V
VEN 0 (VIN + 0.3 V)
Junction temperature, TJ –40 125 °C
Ambient temperature, TA(1) –40 85 °C
(1) Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly application and board-layout dependent. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists, special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design.

(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.
(3) Minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) limits are specified by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical numbers represent the most likely norm.
(4) Specified by design. Not production tested.
(5) VPOR is voltage at which the EPROM resets. This is different from the UVLO on VINLDO12, which is the voltage at which the regulators shut off; and is also different from the nPOR function, which signals if the regulators are in a specified range.

(5) Pins 24, 19 can operate from VIN min of 1.74 V to a VIN max of 5.5 V. This rating is only for the series pass PMOS power FET. It allows the system design to use a lower voltage rating if the input voltage comes from a buck output.
(6) VIN minimum for line regulation values is 1.8 V.
(7) Dropout voltage is the voltage difference between the input and the output at which the output voltage drops to 100 mV below its nominal value.
