Note 2: All devices are 100% production tested at +25NC. Limits over temperature are guaranteed by design.
Note 3: The MAX17598 is intended for use in universal input power supplies. The internal clamp circuit at IN is used to prevent the
bootstrap capacitor from charging to a voltage beyond the absolute maximum rating of the device when EN is low (shut-
down mode). Externally limit the maximum current to IN (hence to clamp) to 2mA (max) when EN is low.
