LP2980AIM5-2.5 datasheet by Texas Instruments

LP2980AIM5-2.5 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LP2980AIM5-2.5?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LP2980AIM5-2.5 is 12V, but it's recommended to keep it below 10V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure the LP2980AIM5-2.5 is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, make sure to follow the recommended layout and component placement guidelines, use a sufficient output capacitor (at least 2.2uF), and keep the input and output capacitors close to the device.
• What is the minimum input voltage required for the LP2980AIM5-2.5 to operate?
  The minimum input voltage required for the LP2980AIM5-2.5 to operate is 2.7V, but it's recommended to keep it above 3V for optimal performance.
• Can I use the LP2980AIM5-2.5 in a high-temperature environment?
  The LP2980AIM5-2.5 is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's recommended to derate the output current and input voltage at high temperatures to prevent overheating and ensure reliability.
• How do I calculate the output voltage tolerance of the LP2980AIM5-2.5?
  The output voltage tolerance of the LP2980AIM5-2.5 is typically ±2% over the operating temperature range, but it can be affected by factors such as input voltage, output current, and temperature. Consult the datasheet for more information.
