LTC3637 ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS Note that the maximum ambient temperature consistent with these junction temperature may impair device reliability or permanently damage specifications is determined by specific operating conditions in the device. The overtemperature protection level is not production tested. conjunction with board layout, the rated package thermal impedance and Note 5: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being other environmental factors. delivered at the switching frequency. See Applications Information. Note 4: This IC includes over temperature protection that is intended to Note 6: For application concerned with pin creepage and clearance protect the device during momentary overload conditions. The maximum distances at high voltages, the MSOP package should be used. See rated junction temperature will be exceeded when this protection is active. Applications Information.
