LP2902N/NOPB datasheet by Texas Instruments

LP2902N/NOPB Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating voltage range for LP2902N/NOPB?
  The recommended operating voltage range for LP2902N/NOPB is 2.7V to 10V, although it can operate up to 12V with reduced performance.
• How do I ensure stability in the output voltage of LP2902N/NOPB?
  To ensure stability in the output voltage, it is recommended to use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF with an ESR of less than 5 ohms, and to place the capacitor close to the output pin.
• What is the maximum output current that LP2902N/NOPB can provide?
  The maximum output current that LP2902N/NOPB can provide is 1A, but it is recommended to limit the output current to 500mA for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I protect LP2902N/NOPB from overheating?
  To protect LP2902N/NOPB from overheating, it is recommended to provide adequate heat sinking, such as a copper plane or a heat sink, and to ensure good airflow around the device.
• Can LP2902N/NOPB be used in high-temperature applications?
  Yes, LP2902N/NOPB can be used in high-temperature applications up to 125°C, but the output current and voltage should be derated according to the temperature derating curve in the datasheet.
