See the 5962R21221 SMD for additional information on the QML RHA devices and see the VID for additional information on the SEP devices.
Subgroups are applicable for QML parts. For subgroup definitions, see the Quality Conformance Inspection table.
Use this VREF value to set the output voltage. Measured in a non-switching configuration as shown in Figure 8-1
See Section 9.3.8.1.1 for additional information.
The device will not begin startup until the voltage on SS discharges below SSstartup in order to ensure proper soft start functionality.
Measured at pins with lead length ≈ 3mm.
