(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) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications.
(3) Voltage internally clamped. If clamp voltage is exceeded, limit current to a maximum of 1 mA.

(2) Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely norm.
(3) The switching frequency is reduced when the second stage current limit is activated. The amount of reduction is determined by the severity of current overload.
(4) No diode, inductor or capacitor connected to output pin.
(5) Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 0 V to force the output transistor switch ON.
(6) Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 12 V for the 3.3-V, 5-V, and the Adjustable version, and 15 V for the 12-V version, to force the output transistor switch OFF.
