LTC3025 ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICSThe l denotes the specifi cations which apply over the full operatingtemperature range, otherwise specifi cations are at TA = 25°C. VIN = 1.5V, VBIAS = 3.6V, VOUT = 1.2V, COUT = 1μF, CIN = 0.1μF,CBIAS = 0.1μF (all capacitors ceramic) unless otherwise noted.

Note 5: Operating conditions are limited by maximum junction Note 2: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended temperature. The regulated output voltage specifi cation will not apply to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction for all possible combinations of input voltage and output current. When temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active. operating at maximum input voltage, the output current range must be Continuous operation above the specifi ed maximum operating junction limited. When operating at maximum output current, the input voltage temperature may impair device reliability. range must be limited. Note 3: The LTC3025 regulator is tested and specifi ed under pulse Note 6: Dropout voltage is minimum input to output voltage differential load conditions such that TJ ≈ TA. The LTC3025 is 100% production needed to maintain regulation at a specifi ed output current. In dropout, the tested at 25°C.
