Bias current flows into the FB may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute pin. Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device Note 4: This is the minimum voltage across the boost capacitor needed to reliability and lifetime. guarantee full saturation of the switch. Note 2: The LT1938E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 0°C to 125°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The LT1938I specifications are guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C temperature range. 1938fa 3 Document Outline FEATURES DESCRIPTION APPLICATIONS TYPICAL APPLICATION ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS PIN CONFIGURATION ORDER INFORMATION ELECTRICAL ChARACTERISTICS TYPICAL PERFORMANCE ChARACTERISTICS PIN FUNCTIONS BLOCK DIAGRAM OPERATION APPLICATIONS INFORMATION TYPICAL APPLICATIONS PACKAGE DESCRIPTION TYPICAL APPLICATION RELATED PARTS
