Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional opera-
tion of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1:
All devices are 100% production tested at TA = +25NC. Limits over temperature are guaranteed by design.
Note 2:
The MAX17498A is intended for use in universal input power supplies. The internal clamp circuit at IN is used to prevent the
bootstrap capacitor from charging to a voltage beyond the absolute maximum rating of the device when EN/UVLO is low
(shutdown mode). Externally limit the maximum current to IN (hence to clamp) to 2mA (max) when EN/UVLO is low.
