What is Min,Typ and Max values in Datasheet

[Bjtpower_magic]

I was reading through Datasheet L6566B, where i wanted design ckt for AC_OK feature.
As per Datasheet, To activate AC_OK feature
AC_OK_Pin_Voltage Characteristic
Min:0.452V
Typ:0.485V
Max:0.518V

For which value i need to design ckt and how accurate it would be?

Hi,

Without having read the datasheet... Assuming it is an active-high signal... I would guess it means the minimum voltage needed to activate the AC_OK feature is 452 mV, the typical voltage needed is 485 mV, the maximum (of the minimum voltage needed) you would want to allow is 518 mV.

Could be based on typical parts produced and their distribution graph (good datasheets show them for op amps, etc.) and temperature-related fluctuation.

You have min and max values... what else do you need to determine accuracy?

Or the other way round: if you want to define accuracy ... how would you do it?
