wise noted.) (Note 5)
Note 1: The output adjust range with BOOT connected to V
OUT
is V
REF
to 5.5V. Connect BOOT to AGND for V
OUT
> 5.5V.
Note 2: The quiescent power-consumption specifications include chip supply and gate-drive loss only. Divide these values by V
IN
(6V) to obtain quiescent currents. In normal and low-power modes, chip supply current dominates and quiescent power is
proportional to V
BOOT
(BOOT connected to OUT). In PWM mode, gate-drive loss dominates and quiescent power is propor-
tional to V
IN
✕
(V
IN
- V
CVH
). In addition, IR losses in power switches and external components typically increase PWM quies-
cent power consumption by 5mW to 10mW. Note that if the device is not bootstrapped, additional power is dissipated in the
CVL linear regulator.
Note 3: When the duty factor (V
OUT
/ V
IN
) is less than this value, the switching frequency decreases in PWM mode to maintain
regulation.
Note 4: Thermal shutdown is disabled in low-power mode (STBY = low) to reduce power consumption.
Note 5: Specifications to -40°C are guaranteed by design, not production tested.
