LT1113CS8 datasheet by Linear Technology

LT1113CS8 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LT1113CS8?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LT1113CS8 is 15V, but it's recommended to keep it below 12V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure the LT1113CS8 is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, make sure to follow the recommended layout and component placement guidelines, use a low-ESR output capacitor, and add a 10nF-100nF capacitor between the VCC and GND pins to filter out noise.
• What is the minimum output current that the LT1113CS8 can supply?
  The LT1113CS8 can supply a minimum output current of 1mA, but it's recommended to keep the output current above 10mA to ensure the regulator remains in regulation.
• Can I use the LT1113CS8 in a high-temperature environment?
  The LT1113CS8 is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance and reliability may degrade at high temperatures. It's recommended to derate the output current and voltage at high temperatures to ensure reliable operation.
• How do I protect the LT1113CS8 from input voltage transients and surges?
  Use a TVS diode or a transient voltage suppressor in parallel with the input capacitor to protect the LT1113CS8 from input voltage transients and surges.
