† Notice: Stresses above those listed under “Maximum
Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is
a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at
those or any other conditions above those indicated in the
operational listings of this specification is not implied.
Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods
may affect device reliability.

Note 1: The integrated MOSFET switches have an integral diode from the L
X
pin to V
IN
and from L
X
to P
GND
. In cases where
these diodes are forward-biased, the package power dissipation limits must be adhered to. Thermal protection is not
able to regulate the junction temperature for these cases.
2: UVLO is specified for a falling V
IN
. Once the UVLO is activated, the UVLO-
HYS
must be overcome before the device will
return to operation.
