L78L06ABD13TR datasheet by STMicroelectronics

L78L06ABD13TR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the L78L06ABD13TR?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the L78L06ABD13TR is 35V, although it's recommended to keep it below 30V for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the L78L06ABD13TR is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, a minimum output capacitance of 2.2uF is required, and it's recommended to use a capacitor with a low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) value. Additionally, the input capacitor should be at least 1uF with a low ESR value.
• What is the dropout voltage of the L78L06ABD13TR?
  The dropout voltage of the L78L06ABD13TR is typically around 1.5V to 2V, which means the input voltage must be at least 1.5V to 2V higher than the output voltage for the regulator to function properly.
• Can I use the L78L06ABD13TR in a high-temperature environment?
  The L78L06ABD13TR has a maximum operating junction temperature of 150°C, but it's recommended to keep the operating temperature below 125°C for reliable operation. Above 125°C, the regulator's performance and reliability may degrade.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the L78L06ABD13TR?
  The power dissipation of the L78L06ABD13TR 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.
