The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the AZ1117CH-3.3TRG1 is 15V, but it's recommended to keep it below 12V for optimal performance and reliability.
To ensure stability and prevent oscillations, it's recommended to use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and to keep the output capacitor close to the regulator. Additionally, using a low-ESR capacitor can help improve stability.
The dropout voltage of the AZ1117CH-3.3TRG1 is typically around 1.5V, which means that the input voltage should be at least 1.5V higher than the output voltage for proper regulation.
The AZ1117CH-3.3TRG1 is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance and reliability may degrade at high temperatures. It's recommended to derate the output current and ensure good thermal design to prevent overheating.
The power dissipation of the AZ1117CH-3.3TRG1 can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (Vin - Vout) x Iout, where Vin is the input voltage, Vout is the output voltage, and Iout is the output current.
