LM2903ITLX/NOPB datasheet by Texas Instruments

LM2903ITLX/NOPB Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the LM2903ITLX/NOPB can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 26V, but it's recommended to keep it below 24V for reliable operation.
• Can I use the LM2903ITLX/NOPB in a high-temperature environment?
  Yes, the LM2903ITLX/NOPB is rated for operation from -40°C to 125°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF with an ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of less than 5 ohms, and a minimum input capacitance of 1uF.
• What is the minimum input voltage required for the LM2903ITLX/NOPB to function?
  The minimum input voltage required is 7.2V for a 5V output, and 8.5V for a 12V output.
• Can I use the LM2903ITLX/NOPB in a low-dropout application?
  No, the LM2903ITLX/NOPB is not a low-dropout regulator. It requires a minimum voltage drop of 2V between the input and output.
