... U High input voltage applications in which large MOSFETs are being driven at high frequencies may cause the maxi- mum junction temperature rating for the LTC1929 to be exceeded. The supply current is dominated by the gate charge supply current, in addition to the current drawn from the differential amplifier output. The gate charge is dependent on operating frequency as discussed in the Efficiency Considerations section ...
