TPS73201DCQ datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS73201DCQ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TPS73201DCQ can handle?
  The TPS73201DCQ can handle input voltages up to 12V, but it's recommended to keep the input voltage below 10V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, it's essential to use a minimum output capacitance of 2.2uF and an ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of less than 1 ohm. Additionally, the input capacitor should be at least 1uF with an ESR of less than 1 ohm.
• What is the dropout voltage of the TPS73201DCQ?
  The dropout voltage of the TPS73201DCQ is approximately 300mV at an output current of 150mA. This means that the input voltage should be at least 300mV higher than the output voltage to maintain regulation.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the TPS73201DCQ?
  The power dissipation of the TPS73201DCQ can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (Vin - Vout) x Iout, where Vin is the input voltage, Vout is the output voltage, and Iout is the output current.
• Is the TPS73201DCQ short-circuit protected?
  Yes, the TPS73201DCQ has built-in short-circuit protection. If the output is short-circuited, the device will limit the output current to prevent damage.
