Note 1:
External components such as the catch diode, inductor, input and output capacitors can affect switching regulator system
performance. Refer to Application Information for details.
Note 2:
The oscillator frequency reduces to approximately 11KHz in the event of fault conditions, such as output short or
overload. And the regulated output voltage will drop approximately 40% from the nominal output voltage. This self-protection
feature lowers the average power dissipation by lowering the minimum duty cycle from 5% down to approximately 2%.
Note 3:
For these parameters, FB is removed from V
OUT
and connected to +12V to force the output transistor OFF.
Note 4:

Note 5:
FB is removed from V
