7.6 System Characteristics

The following specifications apply to a typical application circuit with nominal component values. Specifications in the typical (TYP) column apply to TJ = 25℃ only. Specifications in the minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) columns apply to the case of typical components over the temperature range of TJ = –40℃ to 150℃. These specifications are not ensured by production testing.
PARAMETER TEST CONDITIONS MIN TYP MAX UNIT
VIN Operating input voltage range 4.2 80 V
VOUT Adjustable output voltage regulation(1) PFM operation –1.5% 2.5%
VOUT Adjustable output voltage regulation(1) FPWM operation –1.5% 1.5%
ISUPPLY Input supply current when in regulation VIN = 24 V, VOUT = 3.3 V, IOUT = 0 A,
RFBT = 1 MΩ, PFM variant		 40 µA
DMAX Maximum switch duty cycle(2) 97%
VHC FB pin voltage required to trip short-circuit hiccup mode 0.4 V
tD Switch voltage dead time 5 ns
TSD Thermal shutdown temperature Shutdown temperature 163 °C
TSD Thermal shutdown temperature Recovery temperature 150 °C
(1) Deviation in VOUT from nominal output voltage value at VIN = 24 V, IOUT = 0 A to full load
(2) In dropout the switching frequency drops to increase the effective duty cycle. The lowest frequency is clamped at approximately: FMIN = 1 / (tON-MAX + tOFF-MIN). DMAX = tON-MAX /(tON-MAX + tOFF-MIN).
