The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the TPS72218DBVT is 18V, but it's recommended to keep it below 15V for optimal performance and reliability.
To ensure the stability of the output voltage, it's essential to use a suitable output capacitor with a low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and a sufficient capacitance value. A 10uF ceramic capacitor is a good starting point.
The minimum input capacitance required for the TPS72218DBVT is 1uF, but it's recommended to use a 2.2uF or larger capacitor to ensure stability and optimal performance.
The TPS72218DBVT is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's essential to consider the thermal design and ensure that the device is properly cooled to prevent overheating and ensure reliability.
The output voltage of the TPS72218DBVT can be calculated using the formula: Vout = 1.2V x (1 + R1/R2), where R1 and R2 are the resistors used in the feedback network.
