ALL DIGITAL INPUTS
ILEAKInput currentAll logic inputs over pin voltage range−11µA
All voltage values are with respect to network ground.
Minimum (MIN) and Maximum (MAX) limits are specified by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical (TYP) numbers are not verified, but do represent the most likely norm.
The maximum output current can be limited by the forward current limit ILIM FWD. The power dissipation inside the die increases the junction temperature and limits the maximum current depending of the length of the current pulse, efficiency, board and ambient temperature.
The slew-rate can be limited by the current limit (forward or negative current limit), output capacitance and load current.
The final PFM-to-PWM and PWM-to-PFM switchover current varies slightly and is dependent on the output voltage, input voltage and the inductor current level.
The external clock frequency must be selected so that buck switching frequency is above 1.7 MHz.
