MAX812REUS+T datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

MAX812REUS+T Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended input capacitor value for the MAX812REUS+T?
  The recommended input capacitor value is 10uF to 22uF, depending on the input voltage and output current requirements.
• How do I ensure the MAX812REUS+T is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, make sure to follow the recommended PCB layout guidelines, use a low-ESR output capacitor, and add a 10nF to 100nF capacitor between the FB pin and GND.
• What is the maximum input voltage that the MAX812REUS+T can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 28V, but it's recommended to keep it below 24V for optimal performance and reliability.
• Can I use the MAX812REUS+T in a high-temperature environment?
  The MAX812REUS+T is rated for operation up to 125°C, but the junction temperature should be kept below 150°C to ensure reliability and prevent thermal shutdown.
• How do I adjust the output voltage of the MAX812REUS+T?
  The output voltage can be adjusted by using a resistive divider network between the output and the FB pin, with the ratio of the resistors determining the output voltage.
