TPS73501DRVT datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS73501DRVT Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TPS73501DRVT can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 12V, but it's recommended to keep it below 10V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure stability with the TPS73501DRVT?
  To ensure stability, use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and a maximum ESR of 1 ohm. Also, place the output capacitor close to the regulator.
• Can I use the TPS73501DRVT in a high-temperature environment?
  The TPS73501DRVT is rated for operation up to 125°C, but thermal derating is required above 85°C. Ensure good heat sinking and follow the thermal design guidelines in the datasheet.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the TPS73501DRVT?
  Power dissipation (PD) = (VIN - VOUT) x IOUT. Ensure the PD is within the maximum rating of 1.4W. Use a heat sink if necessary.
• What is the minimum input capacitance required for the TPS73501DRVT?
  A minimum input capacitance of 1uF is recommended to ensure stability and prevent oscillations.
