(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications.
(3) Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage. Thermal shutdown engages at TJ = 150°C (typ.) and disengages at TJ = 130°C (typ.).
(4) For detailed soldering specifications and information, please refer to Application Report AN-1112 DSBGA Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (SNVA009).

7.3 Recommended Operating Conditions

over operating free-air temperature range (unless otherwise noted) (1)(2)
MIN NOM MAX UNIT
VIN (Figure 27) Input voltage range 5.5 22 V
VIN + VLDO (Figure 31) 4.5 5.5
VDDIO 1.65 5
V(OUT1...OUT6, SW, FB) 0 40
TJ Junction temperature –30 125 °C
TA(3) Ambient temperature –30 85
(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pins.
(3) In applications where high power dissipation and/or poor package thermal resistance is present, the maximum ambient temperature may have to be derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA-MAX) is dependent on the maximum operating junction temperature (TJ-MAX-OP = 125°C), the maximum power dissipation of the device in the application (PD-MAX), and the junction-to ambient thermal resistance of the part/package in the application (RθJA), as given by the following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP – (RθJA × PD-MAX).

(1) For more information about traditional and new thermal metrics, see the IC Package Thermal Metrics application report, SPRA953.
(2) Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly application and board-layout dependent. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists, special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design.

(1) Output Current Accuracy is the difference between the actual value of the output current and programmed value of this current. Matching is the maximum difference from the average. For the constant current sinks on the part (OUT1 to OUT6), the following are determined: the maximum output current (MAX), the minimum output current (MIN), and the average output current of all outputs (AVG). Two matching numbers are calculated: (MAX-AVG)/AVG and (AVG-MIN/AVG). The largest number of the two (worst case) is considered the matching figure. The typical specification provided is the most likely norm of the matching figure for all parts. Note that some manufacturers have different definitions in use.
(2) Limits apply over the full operating ambient temperature range (–30°C ≤ TA ≤ 85°C).
(3) PWM output resolution and frequency depend on the PLL settings. Please see section PWM Frequency Setting for full description.
(4) Saturation voltage is defined as the voltage when the LED current has dropped 10% from the value measured at 1 V.
