LM3526MX-H/NOPB datasheet by Texas Instruments

LM3526MX-H/NOPB Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LM3526MX-H/NOPB?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LM3526MX-H/NOPB is 40V, but it's recommended to keep it below 35V for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage in the LM3526MX-H/NOPB?
  To ensure stability, it's essential to use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and a maximum ESR of 1 ohm. Additionally, the output voltage should be decoupled with a 10nF capacitor.
• What is the maximum output current that the LM3526MX-H/NOPB can deliver?
  The maximum output current that the LM3526MX-H/NOPB can deliver is 3A, but it's recommended to keep it below 2.5A for reliable operation.
• How do I protect the LM3526MX-H/NOPB from overheating?
  To protect the LM3526MX-H/NOPB from overheating, ensure good airflow around the device, and use a heat sink if necessary. The device has a built-in thermal shutdown that will turn off the device if the junction temperature exceeds 150°C.
• Can I use the LM3526MX-H/NOPB in a high-temperature environment?
  The LM3526MX-H/NOPB is rated for operation up to 125°C, but the device's performance may degrade at high temperatures. It's recommended to derate the output current and voltage at high temperatures.
