L78L24ABD13TR datasheet by STMicroelectronics

L78L24ABD13TR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the L78L24ABD13TR?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the L78L24ABD13TR is 35V, although it's recommended to keep it below 30V for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the L78L24ABD13TR is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, make sure to use a minimum output capacitance of 2.2uF with an ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of less than 5 ohms, and keep the input capacitance as close to the regulator as possible.
• What is the minimum input voltage required for the L78L24ABD13TR to regulate properly?
  The minimum input voltage required for the L78L24ABD13TR to regulate properly is around 7.5V, although it's recommended to keep it above 8V for reliable operation.
• Can I use the L78L24ABD13TR in a high-temperature environment?
  The L78L24ABD13TR is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance may degrade at high temperatures. Make sure to derate the output current and consider using a heat sink if operating in high-temperature environments.
• How do I protect the L78L24ABD13TR from input voltage surges or spikes?
  To protect the L78L24ABD13TR from input voltage surges or spikes, consider adding a TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diode or a varistor in parallel with the input capacitor.
