ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS The q denotes specifications that apply over the full operating temperature
range, otherwise specifications are at TA = 25°C. VCC, PVCC1, PVCC2 = 5V, VR+ = 1.5V, VR– = GND, unless otherwise noted. (Note 2)

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise
specified.
Note 3: Supply current in normal operation is dominated by the current
needed to charge and discharge the external FET gates. This will vary with
the LTC3831-1 operating frequency, operating voltage and the external
FETs used.
Note 4: The LTC3831EGN-1 is guaranteed to meet performance
specifications from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C
operating temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 5: Rise and fall times are measured using 10% and 90% levels. Duty
cycle and nonoverlap times are measured using 50% levels.
Note 6: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 7: PVCC1 must be higher than VCC by at least 2V for TG to operate at
95% maximum duty cycle and for the current limit protection circuit to be
active.
Note 8: The current limiting amplifier can sink but cannot source current.
Under normal (not current limited) operation, the output current will be
zero.
Note 9: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to protect
the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction temperature will
exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous opera-
tion above the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair
device reliability.
Note 10: The minimum and maximum limits for IMAX over temperature
includes the intentional temperature coefficient of 3300ppm/°C. This induced
temperature coefficient counteracts the typical temperature coefficient of the
external power MOSFET on-resistance. This results in a relatively flat current
limit over temperature for the application.
