DXT2222A-13 datasheet by Diodes Incorporated

DXT2222A-13 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
  A good PCB layout for the DXT2222A-13 should include a solid ground plane, wide power traces, and a thermal relief pattern under the IC to facilitate heat dissipation. A minimum of 2oz copper thickness is recommended.
• How do I ensure the device is properly biased for optimal performance?
  To ensure proper biasing, connect the VCC pin to a stable 3.3V or 5V power supply, and decouple it with a 10uF capacitor. The EN pin should be tied to a logic high (VCC) for normal operation or a logic low (GND) for shutdown.
• What is the maximum current rating for the output pins?
  The maximum current rating for the output pins is 20mA per pin, with a total device current limit of 100mA. Exceeding these limits may cause device damage or degradation.
• How do I handle ESD protection for the device?
  To prevent ESD damage, handle the device by the body or use an anti-static wrist strap. Ensure the PCB has ESD protection diodes on the input lines, and consider adding a TVS diode for additional protection.
• What is the recommended storage temperature range for the device?
  The recommended storage temperature range for the DXT2222A-13 is -40°C to 125°C. Storage outside this range may affect device reliability or performance.
