  1. The USB Pull-up supply current values are calculated values based on USB specifications. USB Pull-up supply current is current flowing from V DD to GND through USB pull-down/pull-up resistors on D+ and D-.
  2. Thermal resistance assumes a multi-layer PCB with any exposed pad soldered to a PCB pad.
  3. USB Pull-up current should be added for total supply current. Normal and suspended supply current is current flowing into V REGIN . Normal and suspended supply current is guaranteed by characterization.
