The recommended input capacitor value is 1uF to 10uF, depending on the input voltage and output current requirements. A larger capacitor value can help to reduce input voltage ripple and improve output voltage regulation.
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. Additionally, ensure that the input voltage is within the recommended range and the output current is within the specified limits.
The maximum output current capability of the MAX860ISA+T is 1A. However, the actual output current capability may be limited by the input voltage, output voltage, and thermal considerations. It's recommended to check the datasheet for the output current vs. input voltage curves to determine the maximum output current for a specific application.
The MAX860ISA+T is rated for operation up to 125°C. However, the device's performance and reliability may degrade at high temperatures. It's recommended to derate the output current and ensure proper thermal management to prevent overheating.
The output voltage of the MAX860ISA+T can be adjusted by connecting a resistor divider network between the output and the FB pin. The resistor values can be calculated using the formula provided in the datasheet. Additionally, the output voltage can be adjusted by using an external voltage reference or a digital potentiometer.
