Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings

may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute

Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device

reliability and lifetime.

Note 2: The LT3844 includes overtemperature protection that is intended

to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction

temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.

Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction

temperature may impair device reliability.

Note 3: The LT3844E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from

0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C

operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization

and correlation with statistical process controls. The LT3844I is guaranteed

over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range.

Note 5: Operating range is dictated by MOSFET absolute maximum VGS.

Note 6: Supply current specification does not include switch drive

currents. Actual supply currents will be higher.

Note 7: DC measurement of gate drive output “ON” voltage is typically

8.6V. Internal dynamic bootstrap operation yields typical gate “ON”

voltages of 9.8V during standard switching operation. Standard operation

gate “ON” voltage is not tested but guaranteed by design.

Note 8: The –1V absolute maximum on the SW pin is a transient condition.

It is guaranteed by design and not subject to test.
