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 LT3799E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C
The l denotes the specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range, otherwise specifications are at T
