BFT93 datasheet by NXP Semiconductors

BFT93 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum power dissipation of the BFT93?
  The maximum power dissipation of the BFT93 is 1.25 W, but it can be increased to 2.5 W with proper heat sinking.
• How do I ensure the stability of the BFT93 in high-frequency applications?
  To ensure stability, it's essential to follow the recommended PCB layout guidelines, use a low-ESR capacitor for decoupling, and add a series resistor to the input to prevent oscillations.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the BFT93?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the BFT93 is 3.5 V to 12 V, but it can operate up to 15 V with reduced performance.
• How do I protect the BFT93 from electrostatic discharge (ESD)?
  To protect the BFT93 from ESD, use ESD-sensitive handling procedures, store the devices in anti-static packaging, and ensure that the PCB design includes ESD protection circuits.
• Can I use the BFT93 in a switching regulator application?
  Yes, the BFT93 can be used in switching regulator applications, but it's essential to ensure that the device is properly biased and that the switching frequency is within the recommended range.
