LM25018MRE/NOPB datasheet by Texas Instruments

LM25018MRE/NOPB Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the LM25018 can handle?
  The LM25018 can handle a maximum input voltage of 42V, but it's recommended to keep it below 40V for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, make sure to use the recommended output capacitor values and types, and keep the output voltage within the specified range (1.2V to 15V).
• What is the maximum output current that the LM25018 can provide?
  The LM25018 can provide a maximum output current of 2A, but it's recommended to keep it below 1.5A for reliable operation and to prevent overheating.
• How do I choose the right inductor value for my application?
  Choose an inductor value that meets the recommended inductance range (1.5uH to 22uH) and has a high saturation current rating to ensure reliable operation.
• What is the purpose of the EN pin, and how do I use it?
  The EN (enable) pin is used to turn the regulator on or off. Connect it to VIN to enable the regulator, or to GND to disable it.
