L79L05ABD13TR datasheet by STMicroelectronics

L79L05ABD13TR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the L79L05ABD13TR can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 35V, but it's recommended to keep it below 20V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, a minimum output capacitance of 2.2uF is recommended, and the capacitor should be placed as close to the output pin as possible.
• What is the dropout voltage of the L79L05ABD13TR?
  The dropout voltage is typically around 1.5V, which means the input voltage should be at least 1.5V higher than the output voltage for proper regulation.
• Can I use the L79L05ABD13TR in a high-temperature environment?
  The L79L05ABD13TR is rated for operation up to 125°C, but the maximum junction temperature should not exceed 150°C. Thermal management is crucial in high-temperature environments.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the L79L05ABD13TR?
  Power dissipation can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (Vin - Vout) x Iout. Make sure to consider the maximum power dissipation rating of 1.4W for the L79L05ABD13TR.
