LM5005MH datasheet by Texas Instruments

LM5005MH Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the LM5005MH can handle?
  The LM5005MH can handle input voltages up to 60V, but it's recommended to keep it below 50V for optimal performance and reliability.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, make sure to use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and a maximum ESR of 1 ohm. Also, use a low-ESR capacitor for the input capacitor (Cin).
• What is the maximum output current that the LM5005MH can provide?
  The LM5005MH can provide up to 5A of output current, but it's recommended to derate the output current based on the input voltage and ambient temperature.
• How do I protect the LM5005MH from overcurrent and overheating?
  Use an external current sense resistor (Rcs) to monitor the output current, and connect it to the EN pin to enable overcurrent protection. Also, ensure good thermal design and heat sinking to prevent overheating.
• Can I use the LM5005MH in a high-temperature environment?
  The LM5005MH is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's recommended to derate the output current and ensure good thermal design to prevent overheating.
