TPS79518DCQR datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS79518DCQR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TPS79518DCQR can handle?
  The TPS79518DCQR can handle input voltages up to 18V, but it's recommended to keep the input voltage below 15V 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 10uF with an ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of 0.1Ω or less, and to place the capacitor close to the output pin of the regulator.
• What is the maximum output current that the TPS79518DCQR can provide?
  The TPS79518DCQR can provide a maximum output current of 1.5A, but it's recommended to keep the output current below 1A for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the TPS79518DCQR?
  The power dissipation of the TPS79518DCQR 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.
• What is the thermal shutdown temperature of the TPS79518DCQR?
  The thermal shutdown temperature of the TPS79518DCQR is typically around 150°C, but it can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
