TPS73633DCQ datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS73633DCQ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TPS73633DCQ can handle?
  The maximum input voltage for the TPS73633DCQ is 15V, but it's recommended to keep it below 12V for optimal performance and reliability.
• How do I ensure stability with the TPS73633DCQ?
  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 and use a low-ESR capacitor.
• What is the dropout voltage of the TPS73633DCQ?
  The dropout voltage of the TPS73633DCQ is approximately 300mV at an output current of 1A, and 500mV at an output current of 3A.
• Can I use the TPS73633DCQ in a high-temperature environment?
  The TPS73633DCQ is rated for operation up to 125°C, but the maximum junction temperature should not exceed 150°C. Ensure proper thermal design and heat sinking to maintain a safe operating temperature.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the TPS73633DCQ?
  Power dissipation (PD) can be calculated using the formula: PD = (VIN - VOUT) x IOUT. Ensure the calculated PD is within the maximum rating of 1.4W.
