Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is

intended to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see Electrical Characteristics. The

guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed

test conditions.

Note 2: At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The device in the surface-mount package must be derated at

Note 3: The human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 k

Ω resistor into each pin.

Note 4: The absolute maximum peak and continuous currents specified are not tested. These specifications are dependent on the

S08 package.

type apply over full operating temperature ranges.

Note 6: Limits are 100% production tested at 25˚C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed through correlation using Statistical Quality Control

(SQC) methods. The limits are used to calculate National’s Averaging Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).

Note 7: There is a variation in accuracy over time due to thermal effects. Please refer to the PWM Output and Current Accuracy section for more information.

Note 8: The PWM accuracy for LM3814-7.0 and LM3815-7.0 depends on the amount of copper area under pins 1 and 2, and the layout. Please refer to the "PWM

Output and Current Accuracy" section for more information.

Note 9: The tolerance of the internal lead frame resistor is corrected internally. The temperature coefficient of this resistor is 2600 ppm/˚C.
