Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: Do not force voltage on the V
Note 3: The LT8708E-1 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C
to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
The LT8708I-1 is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C junction
temperature range. The LT8708H-1 is guaranteed over the full –40°C to
150°C operating junction temperature range.
Note 4: Rise and fall times are measured using 10% and 90% levels.
Delay times are measured using 50% levels.

Note 5: Do not apply a voltage or current source to these pins. They must be
connected to capacitive loads only, otherwise permanent damage may occur.
Note 6: Negative voltages on the SW1 and SW2 pins are limited, in an
application, by the body diodes of the external NMOS devices, M2 and
M3, or parallel Schottky diodes when present. The SW1 and SW2 pins
are tolerant of these negative voltages in excess of one diode drop below
ground, guaranteed by design.
Note 7: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed the maximum operating junction temperature
when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous operation above
the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair device
reliability.
Note 8: Do not force voltage or current into these pins.
