TPS54286PWP datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS54286PWP Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the TPS54286PWP?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the TPS54286PWP is 42V, but it's recommended to keep it below 40V for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure the stability of the output voltage, make sure to use a suitable output capacitor with a low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and a sufficient capacitance value, as recommended in the datasheet.
• What is the purpose of the EN pin, and how do I use it?
  The EN (Enable) pin is used to turn the device on or off. To use it, connect it to a logic-level signal (e.g., from a microcontroller) to enable or disable the device. When EN is high, the device is enabled, and when it's low, the device is disabled.
• How do I choose the right inductor value for my application?
  To choose the right inductor value, consider the output current, switching frequency, and input voltage. A higher inductor value can reduce the ripple current, but may increase the size and cost of the inductor. Use the inductor selection guide in the datasheet or consult with a TI engineer for guidance.
• What is the thermal shutdown temperature of the TPS54286PWP?
  The thermal shutdown temperature of the TPS54286PWP is typically around 150°C. When the device temperature exceeds this value, it will shut down to prevent damage.
