The maximum input voltage is 36V, but it's recommended to keep it below 30V for stable operation and to prevent overheating.
To ensure stability, a minimum output capacitance of 1uF is recommended, and the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) should be less than 1 ohm. Additionally, the input capacitor should be placed as close to the VIN pin as possible.
The maximum output current is 1A, but it's recommended to keep it below 0.8A for stable operation and to prevent overheating.
Power dissipation can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (VIN - VOUT) x IOUT. It's essential to ensure that the power dissipation does not exceed the maximum rating of 1.5W.
The EN (Enable) pin is used to turn the regulator on or off. When the EN pin is high (above 2.0V), the regulator is enabled, and when it's low (below 0.8V), the regulator is disabled. This pin can be used to implement power-saving modes or to turn off the regulator when not in use.
