PRODUCTION DATA.
With a constant 1.4-MHz switching frequency, there is a minimum input voltage limit for a given output voltage to be regulated. This is due to the minimum off time limit. If the input voltage less than the minimum input voltage limit, the output voltage drops accordingly, which is called dropout condition. Figure 7 and Figure 8 show the typical dropout curve for 3.3 V and 5 V output voltage with 3 A and 1.5 A load respectively. Equation 7 can be used to estimate this minimum input voltage limit.
