A good PCB layout for the MAX17501BATB+ involves keeping the input and output capacitors close to the IC, using a solid ground plane, and minimizing the length of the high-current paths. A 4-layer PCB with a dedicated power plane and a solid ground plane is recommended.
Choose input capacitors with low ESR and high ripple current rating. For output capacitors, select ones with low ESR and high capacitance. The datasheet recommends a minimum of 10uF for the input capacitor and 22uF for the output capacitor.
The MAX17501BATB+ can operate in an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. However, the junction temperature should not exceed 150°C.
The output voltage of the MAX17501BATB+ can be adjusted by connecting a resistor divider network between the VOUT pin and the GND pin. The datasheet provides a formula to calculate the required resistor values for a desired output voltage.
The maximum input voltage for the MAX17501BATB+ is 5.5V. Exceeding this voltage may damage the IC.
