Note 1:Electrical specifications are measured by pulse testing and are guaranteed for a junction temperature (T
J
) within the operat-
ing temperature range, unless otherwise noted. Specifications to -40°C are guaranteed by design and not production tested.
Note 2:(V
IN
- V
OUT
) is limited to keep the product (I
OUT
x (V
IN
- V
OUT
)) from exceeding the package power dissipation limits. See
Figure 5. Therefore, the combination of high output current and high supply voltage is not tested.
Note 3:Dropout Voltage is (V
IN
- V
OUT
) when V
OUT
falls to 100mV below its nominal value at V
IN
= (V
OUT
+ 2V). For example, the
MAX883 is tested by measuring the V
OUT
at V
IN
= 7V, then V
IN
is lowered until V
OUT
falls 100mV below the measured value.
The difference (V
IN
- V
OUT
) is then measured and defined as ∆V
DO
.
Note 4:Since standby mode inhibits the output but keeps all biasing circuitry alive, the Standby Quiescent Current is similar to the
normal operating quiescent current.
Note 5:Foldback Current Limit was characterized by pulse testing to remain below the maximum junction temperature (not
production tested).
Note 6:The Reverse-Current Protection Threshold is the output/input differential voltage (V
OUT
- V
IN
) at which reverse-current
protection switchover occurs and the pass transistor is turned off. See the section
Reverse-Current Protection
in the
Detailed
Description.
Note 7:Noise is tested using a bandpass amplifier with two poles at 10Hz and two poles at 10kHz.
