TPS73618DBVR datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS73618DBVR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TPS73618DBVR can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 13.2V, but it's recommended to keep it below 12V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and ensure that the output capacitor has an ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of less than 1 ohm.
• What is the minimum input capacitance required for the TPS73618DBVR?
  A minimum input capacitance of 1uF is recommended to ensure stability and reduce noise.
• Can I use the TPS73618DBVR in a high-temperature environment?
  The TPS73618DBVR is rated for operation up to 125°C, but thermal considerations should be made to ensure the device does not exceed its maximum junction temperature.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the TPS73618DBVR?
  Power dissipation can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (Vin - Vout) x Iout. Ensure that the calculated power dissipation is within the device's thermal limits.
