JAJSED5B August 2014 – January 2018 LM43601
PRODUCTION DATA.
For highest efficiency of operation, TI recommends that the BIAS pin be connected directly to VOUT when VOUT ≥ 3.3 V. In this self-bias mode of operation, the difference between the input and output voltages of the internal LDO are reduced and therefore the total efficiency of the LM43601 is improved. These efficiency gains are more evident during light load operation. During this mode of operation, the LM43601 operates with a minimum quiescent current of 36 µA (typical). See VCC, UVLO and BIAS for more details.
