MB102 datasheet by Micro Commercial Components

MB102 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the MB102?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the MB102 is 35V, although it's recommended to keep it below 30V for reliable operation.
• Can I use the MB102 in a high-temperature environment?
  The MB102 is rated for operation up to 85°C, but its performance may degrade above 70°C. It's recommended to use a heat sink or ensure good airflow to keep the module within its operating temperature range.
• How much current can the MB102 deliver?
  The MB102 can deliver up to 1A of output current, but it's recommended to keep the output current below 0.8A for reliable operation and to prevent overheating.
• Is the MB102 a low-dropout regulator (LDO)?
  No, the MB102 is not a low-dropout regulator (LDO). It has a dropout voltage of around 2V, which means the input voltage must be at least 2V higher than the output voltage for proper regulation.
• Can I use the MB102 to regulate a 5V output from a 9V input?
  Yes, the MB102 can regulate a 5V output from a 9V input, but the module will dissipate around 4W of power, which may require a heat sink or good airflow to prevent overheating.
