General Description
The LM3488 is a versatile Low-Side N-FET high performance controller for switching regulators. It is suitable for use in topologies
requiring low side FET, such as boost, flyback, SEPIC, etc. Moreover, the LM3488 can be operated at extremely high switching
frequency in order to reduce the overall solution size. The switching frequency of LM3488 can be adjusted to any value between
100kHz and 1MHz by using a single external resistor or by synchronizing it to an external clock. Current mode control provides
superior bandwidth and transient response, besides cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Output current can be programmed with
a single external resistor.
The LM3488 has built in features such as thermal shutdown, short-circuit protection and over voltage protection. Power saving
shutdown mode reduces the total supply current to 5µA and allows power supply sequencing. Internal soft-start limits the
inrush current at start-up.

Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR.
The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated
at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress
temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
