to T

, unless otherwise noted. Typical values are at T
A
= +25°C.)
Note 2:
For switch currents between 0.2A and 1A, maximum switch-on voltage can be calculated via linear interpolation.
Note 3:
By setting the SENSE pin to 5.5V (or the FB pin to 2.5V), the V
C
pin is forced to its low clamp level and the switch duty cycle
is forced to zero, approximating the zero load condition.
Note 4:
Device shut down. Switch leakage current not included.
Note 5:
For proper regulation, total voltage from V
IN
to GND must be
≥
8V after start-up. During start-up mode, device is switching
but not regulating.
Note 6:
To avoid extremely short switch-on times, the switch frequency is internally scaled down when V
FB
or V
SENSE
is less than
1.3V. Switch current limit is tested with V
SENSE
or V
FB
adjusted to give a 1µs minimum switch-on time.
Note 7:
Note 8:
All conditions of input voltage, output voltage, temperature, and load current.
Note 9:
FB is at the reference voltage when the MAX830 output voltage is in regulation.
