ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (continued)
(V
INA
= V
INB
= 14V, T
A
= -40°C to +125°C, unless otherwise noted. Typical values are at T
A
= +25°C.) (Note 2)
Note 2: Operation at voltages outside the 5.5V to 18V range is guaranteed, but some parameters may be out of specification.
Note 3: Not production tested.
Note 4: The MAX16920BATJ/V+ with spread-spectrum disabled has a typical switching frequency of 2.2MHz, while the
MAX16920BATJS/V+ is centered at 2.025MHz typically.
