I am wondering what is the difference between these two ICs:

  • LTC3886EUKG-1
  • LTC3886IUKG-1

I looked at the datasheet and the following page, but I have no clues... https://www.analog.com/en/products/ltc3886.html#product-discussions

Where should I look for this kind of information?

The "I" is guaranteed over the full -40C to +125C range, while the "E" variant is guaranteed only from 0C to 85C.

    \$\begingroup\$ A tip I use is searching for the specific variant in the datasheet (e.g. LTC3886E). If the two variants are very similar, most of the time they will just refer to the root part name (LTC3886). The only time they call out a specific variant is usually when they are identifying unique characteristics. \$\endgroup\$
