SNVSBS7B December 2021 – December 2024 LM5168 , LM5169
PRODUCTION DATA
The LM516x requires a bootstrap capacitor to be connected between the BST pin and the SW pin. This capacitor stores energy that is used to supply the gate drivers for the power MOSFETs. A high-quality ceramic capacitor of 2.2 nF is required. Be sure to take into account the D.C. bias derating of the capacitor. The value of CBST must not exceed 2.5 nF.
