(1) All limits specified at room temperature (Standard type face) and at temperature extremes (bold type face). All room temperature limits
are 100% production tested. All limits at temperature extremes are specified via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control
(SQC) methods. All limits are used to calculate Average Outgoing Quality Level.
(2) The oscillator frequency reduces to approximately 18 kHz in the event of an output short or an overload which causes the regulated
output voltage to drop approximately 40% from the nominal output voltage. This self protection feature lowers the average power
dissipation of the IC by lowering the minimum duty cycle from 5% down to approximately 2%.Figure 9
(3) Output pin sourcing current. No diode, inductor or capacitor connected to output pin.
(4) Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 0V.
(5) Feedback pin removed from output and connected to +12V for the Adjustable, 3.3V, and 5V versions, and +25V for the 12V and 15V
versions, to force the output transistor OFF.
(6) V
IN
= 40V (60V for high voltage version).
(7) Junction to ambient thermal resistance with approximately 1 square inch of printed circuit board copper surrounding the leads. Additional
copper area will lower thermal resistance further. See Application Hints in this data sheet and the thermal model in Switchers Made
Simple software.
(8) Junction to ambient thermal resistance with approximately 4 square inches of 1 oz. (0.0014 in. thick) printed circuit board copper
surrounding the leads. Additional copper area will lower thermal resistance further (See Note 7)
