Note 2: The LTC3448E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications Note 7: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature is active.

J is calculated from the ambient temperature TA and power dissipation PD according to the following formula: Note 8: The load current below which the switching regulator turns off and T the LDO turns on is, to first order, inversely proportional to the value of J = TA + (PD)(43°C/W) Note 4: The LTC3448 is tested in a proprietary test mode that connects the inductor. This effect is covered in more detail in the Operation section. V This parameter is not production tested but is guaranteed by design. FB to the output of the error amplifier.
